READING CABIN in Csingervölgy

Date: 2022.11.29

A marriage of art and nature, the reading cabin built according to a design by MOME’s architecture students can also be used as a bivouac shelter.

As Dániel Baló, teacher of the MOME students designing the reading cabin told the Veszprém County News Portal, the basic concept was developed by students Imola Fazakas and Liza Formanek as part of a university course and further improved in the next semester together with their fellow students.

The idea of a bivouac shelter was incorporated into the concept to enable hikers to spend the night at the cabin and even heat up food using a gas heater. The interior of the 1.5 meters wide, 5 meters tall and 6 meters long cabin consists of two bookshelves facing each other, with bunks stacked above.

According to Baló, the students made everything themselves with the exception of the glass windows. The cabin was built over a week, using ground screws provided by a business free of charge, and burnt planks. The covered, open porch is accessible to everyone, while the cabin itself, which can house up to 6 people, can be unlocked after putting in a code.

How can design address the issues of the future? What is the role of design in society and a designer’s job in our age? Where will design expertise become most crucial in the coming years? Points of reference in our changing world and our choices are greatly influenced by design and art, and their areas are also open to increasingly broad interpretation. At the same time, we are prompted by geopolitical issues that are gaining in importance and artificial intelligence to reconsider our existing paradigms and redefine the main foci of design. This will be the topic of the next conference of the Cumulus Association, the world’s top design and art organisation. Having won the right to organise the spring conference, the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design will be hosting the best of the international design scene in Budapest between 15 and 17 May.
