[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Looking back on the 2010s, there were several milestones in the life of HUN\u00c9P Zrt., in terms of the operation, the market activities and the role of the company. We have closed a busy and successful decade, and in the next several years, our aim is to further reinforce the profitability, the sectoral position and the regional market-leading role of the company.<\/p>\n

Highlighting the work of the production area, in addition to our architectural top list, the Hungarian news portal Index.hu also compiled a list of the 40 most successful Hungarian architectural projects in the past decade, which also included \u2013 much to our delight \u2013 two buildings in which HUN\u00c9P Zrt. played a role.<\/p>\n

The journalists of Index asked two editors of \u00c9p\u00edt\u00e9szf\u00f3rum [Architectural Forum], Krisztina Somogyi and D\u00e1niel Kov\u00e1cs, to help them identify the cream of the cream. The end result was a very colourful and interesting cross-section: we were delighted to see that they have found some outstanding projects from different parts of the country, from H\u00f3dmez\u0151v\u00e1s\u00e1rhely to Gy\u0151r and from Debrecen to P\u00e9cs, since good architecture is not limited to Budapest at all.<\/p>\n

Despite the many restrictions, eventually, it was decided that the concept of architectural works would also include developments of public places related to buildings, as well as monuments. What is definitely typical of the 2010s was that there were also quite a few reconstruction projects making the final cut, which indicates perhaps that the proper treatment of our existing built environment is becoming increasingly crucial in architecture, and \u2013 also related to the ongoing ecological crisis \u2013 the proper utilisation of the building stock left by the previous generations is becoming more and more important.<\/p>\n

We are proud to present here the two buildings from the top 30 list which were realized by HUN\u00c9P Zrt.<\/p>\n

One of the most important building types in the past decade in Hungary was the football stadium, since such facilities were built in a never-before-seen number across the country; however, there were only a few where the architects were able to depart from the well-accustomed patterns. One such project was Nagyerdei Stadium in Debrecen, where the entrances can be approached by ramps and a \u201cfloating\u201d pedestrian walkway, which made it possible to better utilise the parts of the building on the lower floor. These include an events hall, fitness room, sports medical offices, etc., which means that the building can operate around the year, and not only on game days. The floating walkway is quite a spectacle in itself, also opening up vistas, not to mention the fact that the running track around the stadium can thus incorporate some inclines, of which otherwise there are very few and far between in Debrecen. The architect wrote about the design\u00a0here<\/a>, while the end product was discussed by \u00c9p\u00edt\u00e9szf\u00f3rum here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The \u201cPalace of Sciences\u201d is located in the botanical garden of the University of Debrecen, in a location where an obsolete isotope lab used to stand. The design is the work of two local architects. The almost windowless main facade looks almost like an out-of-this-world apparition floating over the surface of water, with white blocks, with the foliage of nearby trees casting a nice shadow on the plastered walls. The back part of the building is hiding as a hill covered with grass. The entrance via the bridge leads into the colourful world of popular science education. More information on the building is available here on \u00c9p\u00edt\u00e9szf\u00f3rum.<\/p>\n
