The City Hall of Subotica (Szabadka), recreated 1:1 scale within the BTE Project!

During the collab between BTE Hungary and BTE Balkans, I took up the challenge of recreating the city hall of Subotica/Szabadka. It turned out to be a massive challenge, with over 50 hours of work in the last two weeks. But holy cow, it was worth it!

Unlike many European cities, the center of Subotica is not dominated by a cathedral or a church, but by a City Hall. Because of its location, size and ornate architecture of Hungarian Art Nouveau, the City Hall has become a landmark, the center and the symbol of Subotica. It was built between 1908 and 1910, with the interior decoration completed in 1912. It extends over an area of nearly 6000 m² with 16000 m² of gross floor area. The City Hall was designed by Marcell Komor and Dezső Jakab, prominent architects from Budapest.

The tower is 76 meters high with a belvedere at the height of 45.5 meters with an unforgettable view of Subotica and its surroundings.

35,500 blocks in total :-)

Scale: 1:1
