Fülöp Bechtold won the award for MOME’s Best Designer Maker

Date: 2023.07.19
In 2023, Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design relaunched the Best Designer Maker award After a hiatus of several years due to the pandemic, it will once again be awarded based on student works created during the year and prior voting.

This year’s Best Designer Maker went to first year Ceramic Design MA student Fülöp Bechtold for his pendant and decor lamps designed for the Bebi Loungewear store. The main focus of his design process was the encounter between glass and light, attempting to translate the joy and cosiness radiated by Bebi’s streetwear pyjamas into glass.
  
The objects were created at the MOME glass workshop with support from James Carcass, and his consultant for the project was Péter Borkovics.
