This international two-stage competition was organised with the authorisation of the Government of Hungary and the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts’ New National Public Collections Complex Office, and concerned the design of new museum buildings in the framework of the Liget Budapest Project in the City Park of Budapest.
The Government of Hungary made a commitment to erect new buildings for six different cultural institutions in Budapest, organised via four competitions integrated in the City Park Development Project.
This competition was approved by the International Union of Architects (UIA).
