Riverside Concept Drawings – design by Peter Magyar

Episodes by Water
Design: Peter Magyar
Two building concepts:
Public Safety Building, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
To design on a river-bank, is always perceived a privilege by architects!
Consequently, thorough and yet unconstrained investigation should prepare the final solution. The attached drawings show part of such drawn inquiry.
The drawings of the first group are depicting a Public Safety Building, with 3.000 car parking, the office part, and a small courthouse, to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
International Conference Center in Budapest, Hungary
The second group is a competition project for an international conference center, in Budapest, Hungary.
While working with the first project, the introductory drawing, completely incorrectly, called up the memory of the Abbey in Melk, Austria, as one of the most inspiring architectural complex ever built by a river. The rigor of the functional aspect of the monastery, and the flamboyance of the Church is unsurpassable in our time!
