MOME Graphic Design shines at this year’s RGB Kreatív Design Award

Date: 2025.11.17
MOME’s Graphic Design programme made a remarkable showing at this year’s RGB Kreatív Design Award, bringing home an impressive ten RED (gold), seven BLUE (silver) and six GREEN (bronze) medals in the Talent category. One student project also reached the finals in the Concept category. In the Pro category, Illustration lecturer László Herbszt earned a RED award for his work. The RGB Awards recognise outstanding achievements in Hungarian visual communication, highlighting outstanding graphic quality, brand building, and media design across the sector.

The competition awards design solutions across communication, marketing, and media, showcasing how strong visual thinking drives everything from identity and logo design to book layout, brand installations and service-design projects. Now in its seventh year, the competition introduced a new category structure in 2024, splitting entries into two groups: RGB Pro for professional work and RGB Talent for student projects. 

Highlights from book design, web design, and packaging

This year’s standout MOME talents include Alexandra Ökrös, Tünde Eszter Fodor, Panka Mihalovits, and Maja Galántai – four emerging designers whose work excelled not only across multiple categories, but also in terms of conceptual depth and visual execution. 

Alexandra Ökrös received awards for three projects: ABC Gravity (web design, RED), Unbound Vision of David Fincher (book design, RED), and Let your skin bloom, packaging for Almost 1.618 (GREEN). Tünde Eszter Fodor impressed the jury with two RED-winning projects: the identity for the Nonlinear Film Festival – NFF and the IPAR Type Specimen, a publication centred on typographic research. Panka Mihalovits also earned recognition for two projects: the Aesthetics of Horror book design (RED) and the Skincare Awareness Month campaign packaging (GREEN), both marked by a strong formal approach and a clear conceptual thread. Maja Galántai earned a GREEN award for her book Fázis and a RED for her conceptual project 0.00014792, highlighting a practice in which thoughtful ideas and visual sensitivity reinforce one another organically. Together, their results speak to the strength of MOME’s graphic design education and the confidence with which the next generation is navigating both professional expectations and critical, reflective design thinking.

This year, MOME product design students are debuting their work in Eindhoven as part of The Class of ’25 exhibition at Dutch Design Week. This international showcase celebrates the emerging talents of European design education, with sixteen higher education institutions taking part. Together, they highlight the vital role of design education in shaping the future and reveal how the next generation of designers think about social and environmental responsibility. The MOME projects are grouped around the distinctly Hungarian notion of “gógyi” – quick-witted, resourceful practical intelligence. Working across different scales and media, the students demonstrate how this mindset translates into contemporary product design.
