PRO ARCHITECTURA AWARD - 2021 

Pro Architectura Award – 2021
For the Architectural Ceramics Restoration Works of Párisi Udvar Hotel
Gergely Kelecsényi fully coordinated the architectural ceramics restoration planning tasks for the Párisi Udvar Hotel. During the assessment of the existing condition and the preparation of the expert opinion, he applied several innovative diagnostic tools and methods, in addition to archival research, to uncover hidden faults in structures and elements that were not visible externally. For the restoration proposals, he developed modern and timeless, bespoke solutions. The design documentation was prepared with engineering precision, considering contemporary structural and load-bearing requirements.
The result of the exceptionally careful restoration work was the worthy rebirth of Central Europe’s largest ceramic-clad building. His approach blends engineering methodology, aesthetic sensitivity required for restoration, professional experience, thoroughness, precision, and practical problem-solving and organizational skills, all of which are present at the highest level.
