MOME student wins the Bosch × Richter Industrial Innovation Award

Date: 2024.11.29
The Bosch × Richter Industrial Innovation Award was announced for the first time in the spring of 2024 by two of Hungary’s leading innovative companies, Bosch and Richter, for higher education students. After careful consideration, the jury awarded this year's prize to three projects, each addressing different challenges: the expansion of autonomous technology, dementia treatment, and of urban heat islands. The latter was MOME graduate Ádám Teket’s project titled Urban Oasis.

The aim of the competition was to encourage young people to develop forward-thinking solutions, with the organisers expecting marketable ideas that address real-world problems in our daily lives for a more sustainable future of transportation and healthcare. 

Urban Oasis 2030, a passenger pavilion system, tackles one of today’s most pressing issues – urban heat islands caused by densely built, artificially surfaced areas. This complex redesign concept for urban rest areas and stop shelters in the summer season incorporates the various elements of these spaces, from floor coverings to roof greening, and provides a multi-level architectural response to the problem. 

The project employs passive and very low-energy cooling technologies, introduces green solutions, provides cooling and shading, which could be lifesaving for city dwellers during the summer heat in the urban concrete jungle. The innovation not only aims to improve our daily well-being but also addresses the long-term health and ecological consequences of climate change. Moreover, sustainability is evident not only in the pavilion’s modular functionality and operation but also in its design and material use. 

Robert Bosch and Gedeon Richter, two notable inventors, were born on the same day but 11 years apart, and with their innovations, they made the world a better place. In honour of this, the Hungarian Bosch Group and Richter Gedeon Nyrt. have been organising the Bosch × Richter Innovators' Day for the second year, complete with the Bosch × Richter Industrial Innovation Award, recognising the forward-looking ideas of Gen Z. 

Teket’s diploma project recently featured at the London Design Week as part of an exhibition of MOME’s outstanding diploma works. To learn more about Ádám Teket's project, check out his application video here:

What place do folklore, climate protection, or isolation have on the runway? What does fashion and fashion design mean to Gen Z? How are the centres and peripheries of the fashion industry shifting in the 21st century? These are just some of the questions explored at this year’s MOME Fashion Show through collections reflecting the latest design thinking and a series of special accompanying events.

A Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetemre jelentkezni nem csupán egy képzési forma melletti döntést jelent, sokak számára hosszú ideje dédelgetett álom, szakmai és alkotói célkitűzés. Éppen ezért a felvételi eredmény elmaradása csalódás lehet, különösen akkor, ha csak néhány pont választotta el a jelentkezőt a bekerüléstől... A folytatásra több lehetőség is van, nem muszáj feladni. A MOME oktatási ökoszisztémájában számos olyan alternatív útvonal létezik, amely segít újratervezni, továbblépni, akár frissen érettségizettként, akár már diplomásként.

Six participants in the ‘Tomorrow Belongs to You – For the creative talents of the future’ 2025 scholarship programme are about to begin their BA studies at MOME, while three others have been admitted to the University of Szeged, Óbuda University, and the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. The numbers speak for themselves: the second cohort of the scholarship, launched in 2023, has truly helped its students take their first steps towards a creative career, transforming them from high schoolers into university students.
