Jewellery design alumni success

Date: 2022.04.13

Items by two MOME alumni were selected for inclusion in the collection of Schmuckmuseum (Jewellery Museum) in Pforzheim in March: A brooch from Szilvia Rémiás’ BODY LIGHT jewellery collection won the 'Art Jewellery by Young Talents at the Museum' competition, while Nóra Tengely’s ‘TWO’ brooch was purchased by the museum directly.

The 'Art Jewellery by Young Talents at the Museum’ competition has been organised by the International Society of Friends of Schmuckmuseum Pforzheim (ISSP) since 1998, to promote the introduction and presentation of the works of young emerging designers breaking with conventional forms. The work of the winner of the sponsorship award is bought and donated to the modern collection by the society of friends of the museum.

In addition to help advance the career of young designers, the goal is also to secure new, unusual, extraordinary or even “wilder” jewellery to the museum’s collection.

Szilvia Rémiás’ jewellery designs literally put the spotlight on the human body, while also accentuating their own structure. The BODY LIGHT collection is focused on light, combining structure, form and technical experimentation, and showing off its mechanism of action and incorporating it into a jewellery.

Nóra Tengely’s brooch ‘TWO’ was purchased by the museum directly after the competition.

The works were nominated for the competition based on recommendation by head of MOME Jewellery Design and Metalwork MA Flóra Vági. Congratulations to the winners!

System-level thinking in the winning student projects of the ‘Jump into the Future!’ competition

Water still feels like a given in our everyday lives – but for how much longer? This pressing issue was tackled by secondary school students in the 2025 edition of the ‘Jump into the Future!’ creative competition. Working in teams, pupils from Years 7 to 10 developed bold, imaginative ideas for the future of one of life’s most essential resources. In the second round, selected teams refined their concepts in close collaboration with MOME mentors. At the final on 25 June, ten teams presented their forward-thinking visions, with four of them awarded by a jury of MOME faculty. First place went to Ísbíltúr, second to Bacsaók, third to Code Noir, while Newwave received a special prize. All four stood out not only for their creativity, but also for their systems-level approach, serving as a powerful reminder that water scarcity is no distant threat but an issue we must act on now.

MOME students once again take top honours at the Red Dot Awards

How can we make better use of public transport infrastructure? What would a truly fast and effective life-saving device look like? And how can we save agriculture in a world without bees? These are just a few of the questions addressed by our design students, and their imaginative, forward-thinking answers have earned international recognition in the Design Concept category of one of the world’s most prestigious design competitions, the Red Dot Award. Seven projects mentored through the MOME Red Dot submission programme stood out from the global competition this year, including diploma projects and semester-long university projects.
