The developer (Péter Sugár and László Benczúr) commissioned us to renovate the Lánchíd 19 Design hotel. The building was originally constructed by Market, and after several changes of ownership, it came into the hands of the developer, whose fundamental intention was to create a new interior design, open up and reorganise the communal spaces, and renovate and revitalise the building in a manner befitting its status. It became clear that the building also required mechanical renovation. The project also included the restoration of the ruins, which are under heritage protection. Another interesting aspect of the project was the collaboration with an AI artist.
