“THE FIRST THING WE WORRIED ABOUT WHEN DEALING WITH THE RESTORATION OF THIS HISTORIC MARKET HALL WAS TO MAIN- TAIN THE ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES AND VALUES OF THE BUILDING. WHEN CHOOSING NEW MATERIALS, THERE ARE TWO FAC- TORS THAT NEED TO BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT: THEY MUST BE BEAUTIFUL AND FIT INTO THE CONTEXT. THE NEW STRUCTURES HAVE AN ANCILLARY FUNCTION; HOWEVER, WE INSISTED ON THE USE OF AESTHETICALLY VALUABLE MATE- RIALS. CHOOSING THE RIGHT FLOORING WAS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT DETERMINES THE PERCEPTION OF SPACE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE UPPER FLOOR. THE FLOORING PROJECT WAS BASED ON A DUAL APPROACH, AS IT HAD TO BE MODERN AND TRADITIONAL AT THE SAME TIME, AS IF CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO ERAS. I IMAGINED THAT THE ARCHITECT OF THE ORIGINAL BUILDING WAS MY BOSS AND THAT I TOLD HIM ‘WE CAN’T STEP TWICE INTO THE SAME RIVER’”. Zoltàn Kun
