John Fülöp, Professional Experience:
As head of an Architecture and Planning firm working throughout the East Coast as well as abroad, Mr. Fulop has designed a variety of projects that range from institutional and residential to commercial. Schools, Community Centers, Health Clubs, Single Family to Multi-Unit Residential, and Experimental Theaters are among some of the projects types.

During the course of his architectural career in New York, Mr. Fülöp also worked as a freelance photographer, film maker and multimedia artist and has exhibited his work in Soho Galleries as well as several Avant Grade Arts Festivals in NYC.

Having designed several Health Club facilities, Mr. Fülöp's interest in athletic facilities is enhanced by his current participation in competitive swimming. Over the years, he has won several national titles in Masters Swimming events.
