One of the largest design firms in Hungary has restructured its organization to respond to the increased architectural and professional needs of its national and international clients. The separation of the operating model not only brings a positive change in efficiency, but also provides the opportunity to offer more competitive proposals to property developers, investors and multinational companies.

Tímea Fekete-Tóth, interior design director, graduated as an architect from the Moholy-Nagy University of  Art and Design Budapest (MOME), where she received a diploma award in interior design, which also launched her career. Starting her career in industrial building design, during this 10-year period she experienced the intense workflow of large projects, while always striving to create human-centered spaces, even in an industrial environment, DVM group notes.

She holds a Master's Degree in Color Dynamics Engineering from Budapest University of Technology. Joining the DVM group in 2017, she has been actively involved in ground floor and interior design projects, with special projects such as the 20,000 sqm BP Budapest office, the WineHUB shop, and restaurant, the renewed guest areas of the Dr. Rose Private Hospital and the Steam Budapest restaurant on Szervita Square.
