Q&Alumni sorozatunk következő részében Tóth Ádámmal beszélgettünk, aki 2018-ban végzett a MOME-n formatervezőként. Ádám az aktív egyetemi évek után megalapította a Malom Projekt elnevezésű designstúdiót, amely termékfejlesztéssel, belsőépítészettel foglalkozik, műanyag és természetes anyagok újrahasznosításával kísérletezik, emellett kreatív foglalkozásokat is tart. Több projekten is együtt dolgozott a MOME-val is, például a tavaly elkészült Művészetek Völgye Pavilonon, amely idén is várja a látogatókat Kapolcson a MOME × Harcsa Veronika udvarban! Erről a projektről és még sok másról mesélt nekünk Ádám.
Nóra Demeczky is a familiar name in the design world – not just to the MOME community, but far beyond. Since graduating with a degree in Graphic Design in 2015, she has gone on to co-found the acclaimed design agency DE_FORM. Their work pops up time and again, spanning institutions and events from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences to the Inota Festival, and the Light Art Museum. Her hand is clearly visible at MOME too, where she’s taught courses, contributed to several communications projects, and still returns regularly for talks and community events. In this interview, she shares stories from her university years, the connections that shaped her life, her dream collaborators, and what DE_FORM is working on right now.
In the first written feature of our Q&Alumni series, we spoke with jewellery designer Patrícia Harsány, a 2021 graduate of the MOME Jewellery and Metal Design MA programme. She shared her reflections on student life – from the vibrancy of life in the halls of residence and the warmth of university communities to collaborative projects that still influence her practice today. Since graduating, Patrícia has remained an active contributor to both her field and the life of the university, with projects spanning from Milan to Zugligeti Road. We caught up with her to hear more about those adventures – and what continues to inspire her.
The first guest of the Q&Alumniof series is Anna Tőkés, MOME Animation alumna, who has recently participated in the Annecy International Animation Film Festival with her diploma film titled “The Last Drop.” In this episode, you can learn more about Anna’s experience at our university, her favourite memories of her time spent on campus, and even about her secret talents.
