About us
Our story
Our mission
Our company was founded in 1982 as an economic working partnership. In late 1990, VILLA GMK was transformed into a limited liability company with both Hungarian and British ownership. By combining Hungarian expertise with traditional British precision and reliability, we aimed to strengthen our professional reputation. We also considered it a recognition of our achievements that our British partners placed their trust in us. As part of our further growth, the company became a joint stock company on January 2, 2001.

From our principal architect
In 1981, as a young architect, I was invited by Varhely Arkitektkontor AB in Sweden to work as a visiting designer in Stockholm, where I contributed to the urban design of the Södermalm district. This experience allowed me to gain direct insight into Scandinavian architecture. I hold senior designer certification (É-1/01-0693) and state language exams in English and Italian, with additional studies in French, Russian, and Swedish. I studied Italian both in secondary school and at the University of Perugia. Over the years, I have traveled extensively throughout Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, Africa, and the Far East, gaining exposure to diverse architectural heritage and contemporary works while building professional connections. I have participated in numerous domestic and international conferences (including EUROPREFAB) as both a speaker and attendee. I hold professional qualifications as a senior architect, forensic architectural expert, technical inspector, and responsible technical manager. I am a member of both the Hungarian Chamber of Architects and the Chamber of Forensic Experts.
