The work of our alumnus Ferenc Laufer, the Relief stove tile collection, recently received two awards, the EDIDA Product of the Year Award and the Hungarian Design Award in the product category.

The Relief stove tile collection in collaboration with the Szentesi Tile Stove, Ferenc Laufer and the manufactory create a complex stove tile system that is domestically manufactured and combines the advantages of high-tech heating equipment and traditional tile stoves.

In parallel with this success, Ferenc Laufer recently won a Red Dot award as a member of the Flying Objects team.
The Relief stove tile collection product's official website is www.lauferofen.com

Even in its dilapidated state, the Batthyány Manor in Sitke captures the imagination of passersby. This inspiring architectural complex was the subject of a week-long course at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, and there are expectations for further collaboration with the descendants of the Batthyány family owning the house. The revitalisation project is centred around a plan for a contemporary nursing home that would also help uphold and perpetuate local values.

This year’s winner of the Elizabeth A-i-R international photography residency programme has been selected, and will be enjoying the hospitality of Erzsébetváros and MOME. Mexican photographer Alejandra Gonzales Aragon works with various mediums, chiefly video, sound, photos, and found pictures, and is also interested in performative exercises. Her main focuses include gender issues, as well as intersections of home and identity. Launched jointly by Budapest Erzsébetváros and MOME Photography in 2022, the programme this year received nearly 60 entries from 60 countries over 5 continents.

Winning projects include a hearing aid doubling as jewellery, a narrative video game, multimedia visuals, and several revitalisation projects. The certificates were presented personally by the eponym of the scholarship, world-renowned product designer and MOME Professor Emeritus Stefan Lengyel at the awards ceremony, which was a great honour to both the scholarship recipients and the university staff. The sixteen students will receive the scholarship for a period of 5 months to work on further elaborating their concepts.
