JÓZSEF ATTILA STREET RENEWAL

 

The character of the street can be divided into two distinct appearances: the section of arcaded houses and the section next to the park. In the first section, only a sidewalk will be built on the arcaded side, while on the northern side a tree line will be placed in a steel wooden grid. The pavement on the north side is typically 4.5m wide, where trees will be planted in 10m spacings, with benches in between to provide seating and movement within the order established by the fascia.

The second section on the north side will typically have a 7m wide pavement, with raised planting strips in limestone, similar to the "New Main Street of Budapest". The 30 cm wide and 20 cm high cassettes will provide 6-10 m of green space. The continuous fascia will be placed in the wooden grid, also made of steel in places, thus ensuring that catering terraces can be placed on the wide pavement. In this section, the benches are placed perpendicular to the green boxes.The character of the street can be divided into two distinct appearances: the section of arcaded houses and the section next to the park.

On the southern side of the second phase, next to the park, a green strip of almost four metres will be created, which will also include a tree line. Here too, the green areas will be set in raised limestone cassettes (in the same way as in the park).

The trees in the paved area will be planted in the Stockholm method. The rainwater generated on the roof surface and the paved pedestrian surface will be used on the plant surfaces and in the tree planting pits. The trees will be planted in a structured planting medium, in a large planting pit (12-15 m3), which will allow the water and the air necessary for the roots to be transported directly to the roots by the introduction of rainwater.

Thanks to rainwater harvesting, trees do not require the installation of an irrigation system, making maintenance much more economical, while automatic irrigation of green areas is planned.

SZÉCHENYI EMBANKMENT

 

BUDAPEST - RECONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF PUBLIC SPACES CONNECTED TO THE CHAIN BRIDGE AND THE BUDA CASTLE TUNNEL

The aim of the project is to create a mixed-use transport hub in the planning area by removing the current situation (predominance of motor traffic, partial use of green space) and renewing the public spaces, while respecting the historical heritage and existing conditions.

On the Széchenyi quay, it is planned to maintain one-way southbound traffic until Arany János Street. Between Arany János Street and Széchenyi Square, a pedestrian and cycling zone will be created, where only MTA vehicles will be allowed to enter with a special permit.

The lines of the building facades are accentuated by a band of paving stones of varying width at the pavement level. A 1.5 m wide pavement follows from this strip, from which rainwater collects in a gutter with a stone grid and is used for a tree line installed directly alongside the pavement using the Stockholm method. Between the trees, 6 m long parking spaces and, in places, plant beds will be placed. A 50 cm wide paved gap will be provided between the centre line of the railing shown in the project 'Preparation of the complex rehabilitation of tram line 2' and the edge of the roadway. With the above layout, a total of 20 parking spaces can be provided.

BUDAPEST, HORVÁTH MIHÁLY SQUARE

 

The planning area is also an important part of Józsefváros from a historical, cultural, townscape and functional point of view.

The space is divided into several functional units:

- In front of the church, the green space, originally surrounded by a low fence, is evoked as a central ornamental green space. The statue in the centre of the raised green box is surrounded by a grassy parterre, which can be accessed by steps from the church. On the side of the stairs facing the statue is a flower bed.

- A promenade will be created parallel to the northern building line, providing a suitable lobby and access for the hotel, and an outlet for the new development and restaurants on the ground floor of the existing buildings.

- New planters will be installed between the promenade and the church lobby, providing space for the added tree line, transforming the space into a shaded resting area.

- A single perpendicular parking space has been designed on the north side of the church.

A new planter will be placed at the boundary of the promenade and the square, bordered by a raised border on the promenade and a seating wall on the sculpture. In the church lobby, a larger continuous paved area has been created for church events. The pavement will be paved in paving stones along the entire length of the pavement and the asphalt wearing course will be replaced on the east side of the church (pedestrian crossing). Three sections (at the pedestrian crossing, at the mouth of the German Street and in front of the church) will be rebuilt. An existing tree line runs alongside the church, for which a tree protection plan is being prepared. The trees will be planted in expanded cassettes with shrubs and in a tree-lined trellis.

DUNA-BUDA, RENEWAL OF THE DANUBE BANK IN BUDA

 

On behalf of the Municipality of Budapest, our design office has prepared the concept and permit plans for the Duna-Buda, the renewal of the Buda downtown Danube bank project.

The aim of the design is to renovate the deteriorated areas along the Danube on the Buda side of the capital, and to create a transparent and sophisticated public space chain.

Felhévíz is the unit with the largest green area, where a transparent and attractive park can be created at the foot of the Margaret Bridge by preserving and rejuvenating green areas and rationalising the different functions and traffic flows. In Bem József Square, the traffic system will be redesigned to create a coherent, pedestrian-friendly public space, while the parking on Fő Street will allow the installation of a unified tree line and the upgrading of pedestrian surfaces.

A key design criterion was to meet World Heritage criteria and to select contemporary solutions that would allow for a phased investment.

CLARK ÁDÁM SQUARE

 

BUDAPEST - RECONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF PUBLIC SPACES CONNECTED TO THE CHAIN BRIDGE AND THE BUDA CASTLE TUNNEL

The aim of the project is to create a mixed-use transport hub with a coherent image, in harmony with the neighbouring areas, by redesigning the existing traffic structure, creating new green spaces and renewing public spaces, taking into account the historical heritage and existing conditions.

In the design of the perimeter and its surroundings, increased emphasis has been placed on symmetrical space along the axis of the Chain Bridge and the Tunnel. This symmetry is reinforced by the candelabras and the biodiverse flowerbeds at the mouth of the Chain Bridge, and the double-sided tree planting in Tunnel Street.

The centre of the roundabout, originally 40 m in diameter, has been reduced to 21 m, with a new representative flowerbed inspired by the rose window of St Matthias Church. The reduction in the area of the roundabout has increased the proportion of pedestrian surfaces, which, with new seating areas and perennials and trees, now serve not only as a traffic area but also as a recreational area.

The primary aim of the renewal of the reception area of the Buda Slide was to make it not only a place to pass through, but also an invitation to stay longer. To this end, the area will be equipped with shade trees, plant beds surrounded by a seating area, comfortable street furniture, humidification equipment and fireplaces of the same type as the existing ones.

The reception area slopes steeply towards the roundabout. With minimal changes to the original terrain, water will be diverted from the pavement to the tree planting area to ensure the water supply for the trees planted (SFR).

The section of Lanchíd Street covered by the present design is the final element of the previously reconstructed Lanchíd Street, which also provides a connection to Clark Ádám Square and indirectly to Main Street. The existing MOL Bubi station and scooter point on the eastern side of the street will remain unchanged. A double tree line will be installed along the entire length of the street section, and the tree line will be planted using the Stockholm method, with gutters to channel rainwater collected from pedestrian surfaces.

SZÉCHENYI ISTVÁN SQUARE

 

BUDAPEST - RECONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF PUBLIC SPACES CONNECTED TO THE CHAIN BRIDGE AND THE BUDA CASTLE TUNNEL

The redesign of Széchenyi Square was based on the fundamental expectation to create a new emblematic public space with a unified image, taking into account the historical heritage and the existing valuable green spaces, cultural history and architecture, by rearranging the existing traffic structure. In the new public space structure, green space will continue to play a prominent role and pedestrian crossing and staying will reach a new high level of quality.

The redesign of Széchenyi István Square is based on historical maps: the three green spaces from around 1908 are reflected in the new spatial scheme, and the axis of Zrínyi and Mérleg streets is redirected towards the Széchenyi Chain Bridge. The design of the square reflects the rhythm of the five major building blocks bordering it: a large paved area in front of the Academy, and a small green space in front of the Roosevelt office building, the Gresham Palace and the Ministry of the Interior. A paved area will also be created in front of the Chain Bridge, ending in a long seating area. The asymmetry generated by the traffic route to the Széchenyi Chain Bridge is counterpointed by a water feature on the north side of the bridge, along the axis of Zrínyi Street. The main design guidelines were set out in our entry, which won first place in the 2015 design competition, and the present design dispensation is based on a significant increase in green spaces compared to the tendered work.

The reconfiguration of the circulation pattern will allow for an increase in the proportion of pedestrian surfaces in the square, which, with the addition of quality street furniture and significant trees, will not only facilitate pedestrian passage but also become a pleasant place to be. The two space-organising works of art - the statues of Count István Széchenyi and Ferenc Deák - will remain in place on the lawn. In the square, the former motor vehicle traffic perimeter areas will be planted with tree plantings and tree groups, and the original extensive lawn areas will be supplemented with ornamental flower beds. On the paved surfaces, tree planting will be carried out in large special planting pits, which will also be used to discharge rainwater that falls on the pedestrian surfaces.

In terms of functional layout, the square will be extended with two areas to be freed from vehicular traffic: the ceremonial plaza in front of the facade of the MTA and the pedestrian area in the foreground of the Chain Bridge, a site of national importance because of the visual link between the Chain Bridge and the castle quarter, which are national symbols.

DÉRI MIKSA STREET, BUDAPEST

 

The concept aims to create a pedestrian and cyclist-friendly street that can be reborn as the new "main street" of the area, with new green spaces, sophisticated street furniture and an orderly environment.

In recent years, the street and its surroundings have been neglected by major comprehensive developments, although the major real estate investment already carried out in the street (Juliet House) foreshadows the municipality's determination to rehabilitate the public space in the district. The usability of the street and the sense of space will be significantly transformed, with a wider pedestrian circulation area and green spaces, creating a shadier and more climatically favourable environment.

Under the proposed design, the entire pavement will be pedestrianised, junctions will be raised to pavement level for traffic safety reasons, unused pavement corners will become green space, while the 4.00 m carriageway between the parallel and 45 degree parking lane will allow for two-way cycle traffic.

A new unified tree line will be created and a mix of shrubs and perennials will be planted in low granite cassettes along the sidewalk.

The planning programme aims to enhance the value of the town centre, both in terms of aesthetics and usability, with particular attention to the development of its cultural potential. As a result, the attraction of the area can be extended, indirectly increasing the value of neighbouring properties, residential buildings and public spaces. The main objective is to achieve a coherent appearance of the new market place, serving parking, transport and pedestrian links.
