Selection of the MÉK-MÉSZ Diploma Award Winning Designs

The Hungarian Chamber of Architects and the Association of Hungarian Architects jointly advertise a contest for diploma prizes awarded for professional excellence on a regular basis, year by year now for graduate students majoring in architecture. In 2015 the jury of professionals awarded a total of ten prizes in three categories (architecture and the protection of historic buildings, zone and settlement planning, landscape and garden architecture) after viewing all the 94 plans submitted for this year’s contest. We are hereby presenting two of the winning projects: firstly, the reconstruction concept of the Salgó castle in the northern region of Hungary worked out by Norbert Juház and secondly, the scheme submitted by Bálint Laczkó-Pető for a would-be factory producing timber pellets.
