In 1928 he joined the CIAM group and thus came into contact with the latest architectural trend, like in Napraforgó Street and the Esti Kurir weekend house at the Budapest Embankment Római part. We are not sure, whether this house still exists.
He was born as László Weinberger, but his parents decided to change the name to a more Hungarian version in 1878. László Vágó studied architecture between 1890 and 1893. He therefore came into close contact with the trends of historicism. He designed many public buildings, such as theatres in Budapest and Miskolc, buildings for Jewish communities as well as apartment buildings.
