Where young people design flying carpets and they really mean it
Date: 2022.07.26
Index visited the newly opened innovative vehicle design workshop of the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, where young talents have been trained in close cooperation with the lead designers of Mercedes-Benz for 20 years, and things are picking up speed.
The goal is to change the role of Hungary from pure assembly workshop to a creative and innovative contributor to the car production of the future.
Máté Treffler, a fresh graduate of the vehicle design programme of the Product Design department, shared his experiences about MOME with index.hu.

The Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME) has announced an open call for applications for the position of Rector. The call has been issued by the maintainer of the university, the Foundation for Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design.
Two projects linked to MOME took first place in the Hungarian round of the International Union of Architects (UIA) Architecture and Children Work Programme’s UIA Golden Cubes Awards, organised in Hungary by the Association of Hungarian Architects.
The Course Week is one of MOME’s most intensive and dynamic formats: a week when creativity, learning, and collaboration come together in a concentrated burst of activity. During the spring 2026 edition, studio work was complemented by exhibitions, international symposia, and artist talks, while students and lecturers from different programmes worked together in interdisciplinary settings. Subjects ranged from AI and robotics to sound, animation, and photography, alongside architecture and experiments with sustainable materials, from sound workshops to architectural and exhibition concepts. Many of the courses were organised in international collaboration and involved visiting lecturers. The week concluded with public presentations, offering an insight into the outcomes of this intensive period of work.
