Architectural projects have been growing in complexity at an exponential pace while delivery times have shortened. In response to these demands, specialized visualization studios have become essential to architects and firms with high demands and tight deadlines. Brick Visual, the Budapest-based high-end visualization studio, reflects on its 10 years in the industry and the current state of architectural visualization.
Brick Visualwas founded in 2012 by a few ambitious young professionals whose dream was to create visuals for the most reputed architecture firms around the globe. From a small downtown apartment in Budapest, the handful of visualizers worked to address the needs of its clients while building a culture of innovation and artistic excellence. Since then, the small Hungarian collective transitioned into an international team of nearly 100 experts, who are based in their loft headquarters in Budapest, and satellite offices in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, and Verona, Italy.
Dobrich is a city in the eastern part of Bulgaria, situated in the Eastern part of Europe. A city with a population of about 80,000 people, it aspires to building a central urban environment of modern, global standards. Pleasant, comfortable, safe and attractive, it prides itself in involving its citizens in defining its vision for development.
The transformation process must take into consideration not only the economic, social and cultural realities, but also the unique historical past and traditions of the city. Specific “urban heritage” must be the starting point for the development of an urban policy. By transforming the city we are indirectly transforming the lives of its citizens, and this is a process in which they cannot be indifferent.

An in-depth study on the concept of environmental sustainability will be handled by Jan Knikker, since 2008 in MVRDV, where as a Partner, he directs the development and public relations activities, forming a customer-oriented, fast and strategic studio that includes a strong team. Founded in Rotterdam, the studio has been active since 1993 at an international level in every architectural and urban planning sector, with a mission oriented towards participatory planning, which involves clients, stakeholders and professionals who interact from the earliest stages of the creative process. The goal is a choral reflection on the use of marble in design, as well as understanding how innovative ways can be used to contribute to widespread application, also in relation to a sustainable use of natural resources. The meaning of the word "marble" which derives from the Greek marmaros and literally means "shining stone" already contains in a nutshell the great potential of this material used since ancient times.
