Bálint Köves

He is currently responsible for the implementation of the Architecture Film Days and the CUP 4 Creativity research project, but he has been an active KÉK volunteer since 2012, participating in the organization of several exhibitions and programs. He studied architecture at BME and La Sapienza University in Rome. Walking through the streets of Rome, he fell in love with the complexity of the cities, the urban stratification that can be explored as an “archaeologist” and the stories that can be read from the streets, buildings and small architectural and urban details. Inspired by this, he has been organizing and guiding city walks in Budapest since 2016 on historical, 20th century and contemporary architecture and urban development projects. In addition to his KÉK activities, he works as an architect and studies as an urbanist.
