Arhitect and more

I am Gáspár Hajdu from Budapest, Hungary.

I am an architect working in both the physical and the virtual world.

Throughout my studies and experience – apart from architectural design – I got familiar with digital design, generative art, mediadesign, 3D animation, creative coding, live coding, web design and many other interesting stuff on the field of art and tech.
I am in to photography and live coding and I used to play the drums.

I was a researcher at Kitchen Budapest media lab.
Lately I have been working as a freelancer for various architectural studios and contribute in a variety of (newmedia) projects.

Most of the projects listed here are results of intensive teamwork between members of different disciplines!
