Gyula Pártos

Gyula Pártos (born Julius Puntzmann, 17 August 1845 – 22 December 1916) was a Hungarian architect.

[1] Together with Ödön Lechner he designed a number of buildings in the typical Szecesszió (Art Nouveau) style of fin-de-siècle Hungary.

After graduation Pártos and Lechner established a fruitful partnership which lasted until 1896, crowned by their ultimate work, the design of the Budapest Museum of Applied Arts.

Supposedly, Lechner was in charge of most of the artistic aspects of the practice, while Pártos took command of the organizational tasks.

Working independently after 1896, he received numerous commissions over the next 16 years in the capital as well as in Győr, Cegléd, and Bratislava (then still called Pozsony and part of the Hungarian half of the Austro-Hungarian Empire).
