MOME Designer Maker students among the exhibitors of the Ambiente in Frankfurt

Date: 2023.02.20
The Frankfurt Ambiente, one of the largest consumer goods trade fair in Europe, featured items designed by our students in collaboration with ONYX Workshop.

The Ambiente design fair in Frankfurt took place between 3 and 7 February, also debuting the ceramic design students of the MOME Designer Maker MA programme involved in the MOME x ONYX project. MOME and ONYX Műhely’s joint design course was led by art director of the ONYX Creative Community Angéla Góg and ceramist and MOME teacher Edit Kondor DLA, and aimed to help students design contemporary servingware based on Gerbeaud Patisserie’s 164-year-old legacy. The process was aided by pastry chef of the Workshop Zsuzsanna Borsos.   

The resulting items explored contemporary dessert culture and the related serving culture. The following 9 exhibited objects also enjoyed great success at the exhibition:
 
Csenge Anna Berkes – Chocolate serving set 
Anna Budaházy – Rigó Jancsi 
Melinda Doktor – Brandy cherry chocolates  
József Kovács – Dobos cake  
Martina Kovács – Diplomat pudding   
Dóra Szilágyi – Cream puff   
Lea Anna Szolnoki – Zserbó petit four  
Ingrid Válint – Esterházy cake 
Dorottya Vértessy – Mignon

The University of the Future initiative is a key focus this year, aimed at MOME’s comprehensive revitalisation. Thanks to persistent efforts over recent months, working groups have developed a detailed implementation plan for the University of the Future programme, a.k.a. the “Three Schools model”, which was unanimously accepted in December 2023. The process has now reached a new milestone: on 18 July, the Senate has pledged its support for the plan, paving the way for continued collaborative work to implement the new structure by next winter and to transform MOME into one of Europe's leading design higher education institutions.

Our University has been invited to exhibit at one of the world's most prestigious digital art festivals, the Ars Electronica 2024. Each year, the Campus series of the long-standing festival presents an art university. This year's exhibition is organised in collaboration with the University of Linz, and will feature outstanding student diploma works from recent years in Linz's main square selected by curators Judit Eszter Kárpáti, Esteban de la Torre, and Ágoston Nagy.

A new symbol has been added to the range of memorabilia that members of the MOME community can receive as they reach various milestones in their university careers. This new emblem, which reinforces a sense of belonging, is a turned and machined bronze item with a polished surface based on the letter ‘O’ in MOME’s logo. Designed by MOME MA teacher Krisztián Ádám at the initiative of Rector József Fülöp, this symbol will be awarded to all graduates at all levels along with the diplomas starting in 2024.
