About This Resource
Balint Alovits is a Budapest-based photographer who has created extensive documentation of the city's historic and architecturally significant staircases. His work focuses particularly on spiral staircases and the geometric patterns they create when photographed from below or above. Budapest, with its rich architectural heritage spanning Gothic, Baroque, Art Nouveau, and Modernist periods, features numerous spectacular staircases in apartment buildings, public buildings, and historic sites. Alovits' photography has brought international attention to these often-overlooked architectural details and inspired similar documentation projects in other cities.
