Meet our team
I am the senior architect and project manager of Smarthitect Studio.
I hold a degree in Civil Engineering from Széchenyi Istvan University – Hungary, specializing in Bridge Construction (1989). I also hold a degree in Architecture Design from the University of Budapest (1992).
At the outset of my career, I contributed to the Hungarian Government’s most significant bridge infrastructure project, the Hárosi Duna Bridge in Budapest, as a Quality Controller in 1993.
Over the past 33 years, I have served as an architect and project manager in both Europe and Asia. In 2000, I founded my own company, Project System International Holding Co LTD, in Budapest, Hungary, where I successfully executed various residential and commercial projects from inception to completion, handling aspects such as financing, design, construction, and sales.
Following the Economic World Crisis in 2010, I relocated to Thailand, embraced new opportunities, and have since spent the last decade residing in Phuket as a proficient Project Manager.
I launched Smarthitect Studio (operated by Happy Project Co Ltd.) which is a Phuket based full-service architecture and design studio. We offer our clients a full range of architectural planning and design services as well as complete project management, from concept through construction, always ensuring on-time, on-budget, and high-quality project deliveries.
With 33 years of experience I am dedicated to creating spaces that are not only extraordinary but also harmoniously blend innovative design, functionality, and sustainability.
The highlight of my credentials is delivering projects on schedule, within budget, and with a focus on high-quality completion.
The implementation of a project is an intricately complex process! This is what I always emphasize to our respective clients. As a qualified expert, my areas of experience and expertise include overseeing and surveying all the crucial phases of a project while controlling three fundamental elements:
1. Quality (Design and specially selected materials, controlling)
2. Time (Organization, Contractors)
3. Price (Budget Control, Smart Sourcing, Tender)
In the world of development, the rule often involves prioritizing two out of these three elements and that can lead to problems. When considering project investment, here are some key factors to bear in mind:
1. If you seek high quality and a quick solution, it may entail a higher cost.
2. To save costs while maintaining high quality, you may need to allocate more time.
3. Opting for a „quick and cheap” approach may compromise the level of quality.
4. The magic lies in achieving high quality within the designated budget and scheduled timeframe – a feat that we at Smarthitect Studio ensure to accomplish.
I find it important to point out that project management is essential when an architect is also the civil engineer and the quality controller. It facilitates effective coordination, time and budget management, risk mitigation, quality assurance, and compliance with regulations. Project management ensures client satisfaction, stakeholder engagement, and long-term project success, especially when multiple roles are handled by one entity. This ensures high quality within the designated budget and scheduled timeframe.
Through the challenges encountered in my journey, I have gained valuable lessons that have honed my expertise, empowering me to ensure the delivery of projects with excellent quality, all while adhering to the allocated budgets and specified timelines. My approach involves integrating the knowledge and expertise of a civil engineer, architect and project manager working in an interdisciplinary way to achieve comprehensive outcomes. By combining skills from different fields, our clients receive European-quality results at local costs.
Thank you for your attention. Should you require any additional information or references, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am looking forward to the potential collaboration with you.
