Varró Zoltán vagyok,
a VARRODESIGN alapítója.
Munkásságomat több, mint 20 éve kezdtem, de a világra való eszmélésem óta érdekel az épített környezet, a tér, amelyben élek/élünk. Az első erre utaló emlékképeimet három-négy éves koromra datálom. Előfordult, hogy a kötelező délutáni alvás helyett gyakran arról ábrándoztam, hogyan lehetne a kis alapterületű lakásunkból nagyot kreálni. Képzeletben hozzányitottam a szomszéd lakást, majd elmélyültem a berendezés mikéntjébe, amit rettenetesen élveztem. Mindennek a hangulatára a mai napig tisztán emlékszem. Szüleim, testvérem máig emlegetik, hogy kiskamasz koromban sokszor jöttek úgy haza, hogy nem tudták épp hol van a szobájuk, mert átrendeztem az egész lakást. Úgy gondolom, nem én választottam a belsőépítészetet, a belsőépítészet választott engem.
Minden olyan dolog érdekel, ami szép, vagy ezzel kapcsolatos. Legyen az lakás, díszlet, rendezvény, ruha, műalkotás, és így tovább.
Hitvallásom, hogy minden ember más, minden ember másfajta környezetben érzi jól magát. Ezért számomra a legfontosabb a tökéletes harmónia megteremtése. Töretlenül hiszek az egyediségben, és abban, hogy egy kis luxus mindenkinek jár-még otthon is.
Büszke vagyok arra, hogy akik 10-15 évvel ezelőtt is az ügyfeleim voltak, azok ma is az ügyfeleim. Ennél fontosabb visszajelzés nincs!
Minden díj nagyon fontos számomra, az eddigi legnagyobb, a New York-i Gold Key Awards, amit 2016-ban nyertem a szegedi Science Hotel lobby-ával. A Gold Key Awards for Excellence in Hospitality Design, a vendéglátóipari design kiválósági díja, a szakma legnagyobb presztízzsel rendelkező elismerése, amelyet minden év novemberében a New York-ban adnak át. A díj a legnagyobb hatású és leginnovatívabb design munkákat jutalmazza a vendéglátóipar összes szektorában.
Hosszú út vezetett a nemzetközi elismerésekig. Sikereimet az elmúlt évtizedek kitartó munkájának eredményeként értékelem.

I am Zoltán Varró,
Founder of VARRODESIGN.
My career started more than 20 years ago, but ever since I came into the world, I have been fascinated by the built environment, the space in which I/we live. I date my first memories of this back to when I was three or four. Sometimes, instead of the obligatory afternoon nap, I often daydreamed about how to make our small apartment into a big flat. In my mind, I added the flat next door and then delved into the furnishings, which I enjoyed immensely. I still remember the atmosphere of it all clearly to this day. My family still recalls that when I was a young teen, they often came home not knowing where their room was because I had rearranged the whole apartment. I don't believe I chose interior design, rather interior design chose me.
I am interested in all things that are beautiful or related to beauty. Be it a home, a stage set, an event, a dress, a work of art, and so on.
I believe that every person is different, every person feels comfortable in a different environment. So for me, the most important thing is to create perfect harmony. I am a firm believer in individuality and that a little luxury is something everyone deserves, even at home.
I am proud that the people who were my clients 10-15 years ago are still my clients today. This is the most important feedback one can get.
All awards are important to me. The biggest is the Gold Key Awards in New York, which I won in 2016 for the lobby of the Science Hotel in Szeged. The Gold Key Awards for Excellence in Hospitality Design is the most prestigious in the industry, presented in New York every November. It recognises the most impactful and innovative designs across all sectors of hospitality.
The road to international recognition was long. I see my successes as the result of decades of hard work.
