BLAHA PAVILION
INTERIOR DESIGN
ĂpĂtĂ©sz StĂșdiĂł has commissioned URBA to design the interior of a cultural building to be located in the renewed Blaha Lujza square, a transportation hub in Budapest.
The mixed use space had to include a ticket office, a specialty cafe and an exhibition space. Due to the limited area available above the ground, most functional elements of the building are located underground (such as toilets, storage, engineering units) while the guest area is left open and transparent. Materials used on the outside of the building were used inside as well, such as terrazzo flooring, mash steel ramps as ceiling grids, lastly stainless steel & MDF counters.
