MOME alumni among the winners of the 8th ArtHungry Award

Date: 2025.03.12
The winners of the eighth ArtHungry Award in the Product Design category include several former MOME students, such as Máté Guthy, Róbert Kristóffy, and Nóra Szilágyi for their ‘At Least’ home workout bench, and Márk Dávid for his ‘Puritaan – 03’ collection. The main prize in this category went to MAIII COLLECTIVE for its Fragments collection, which debuted at this year’s Stockholm Furniture Fair. In the Graphic Design category, Nóra Kaszanyi also received a main prize for her album and exhibition design ‘Biedermeier Lifestyles. Art and the Rise of the Middle Classes in 19th-Century Hungary (1815–1867)’. The awards were presented on 6 March at a ceremony held at Deák Palace in Budapest, which also marked the opening of a pop-up exhibition featuring the finalist projects.

The competition, with a total prize fund of over three million forints, highlighted the best Hungarian design works of the past three years. Alongside certificates of recognition and golden tetrahedron trophies, winners received valuable prizes. According to ArtHungry’s art director José Tábori-Simon, competitions like this are crucial in providing young, emerging designers, graphic artists, and product designers with professional recognition across the industry. 

The award now holds particular significance in the industry, especially following the discontinuation of the Hungarian Design Award, whose predecessor, the Industrial Design Excellence Award, launched in autumn 1979, celebrated outstanding achievements in the creative industries for 45 years.

What happens when it is not adults, but secondary school students, who begin thinking about the future? Ten student teams presented their ideas at this year’s final, with participants reflecting together on the kinds of relationships that humans might develop with technology and nature twenty years from now. This year’s theme was the forest. The visions presented by the participants touched on climate change, urban life, automated systems, collective responsibility, and the possibility of reconnecting with nature. First prize from the jury went to Sketch Squad, with dECO taking second place and Erdei Remeték third. Seven special prizes were also awarded at the final, recognising the different strengths, approaches, and community values of the submissions.
