Bem Park

Debrecen, Hungary

Bem Park is a residential complex of 150 apartments located along one of Debrecen’s key axes, connecting the city centre with Nagyerdő, the city’s iconic park. Positioned at the boundary between the downtown area and a green villa district, this striking and environmentally conscious project introduces a fresh and dynamic architectural presence to the cityscape.

Residental

Our fundamental architectural intent was to create a composition that feels both natural and tranquil while also radiating energy and dynamism. On this irregularly shaped site, we arranged ten three-story buildings around a central courtyard, forming a cohesive ensemble. The buildings face this inner courtyard with lushly planted terraces that, over time, will transform into a cascading green wall. From a distance, the landscape is designed to evoke the image of a sunlit clearing nested within a green valley.

This central “green valley” provides a quiet, sheltered, and intimate environment – a true living space designed for the residents’ well-being.

From the street and neighbouring properties, the buildings present rational, house-like façades, blending seamlessly with the surrounding urban fabric. Their structured front elevations contrast sharply with the softer, organic character of the inner park. The residential complex incorporates eco-conscious solutions that ensure sustainability and modern operational efficiency.
