After such a long silence, it is difficult to know how to start anew. A year and a half ago, everything began to change, and Designisso – despite the best of intentions – was, for a while, forgotten. As it returns amid the cultural shifts, it is worth considering what a community space like this might mean today.

Built around interaction, the collection reflects a design approach that creates an organic relationship between form, pattern, and user, treating the accessory not as a static object but as a series of different stages within a process.

Dániel Szalkai is mainly known as the founder and leader of the social enterprise MAACRAFT. In this interview, however, the focus shifts to the societal role and responsibilities of design, as well as his recently published book, The Practice of Empowerment Through Design.

How has the iconic figure of the mannequin evolved across various media and interpretive dimensions within the fashion world and everyday urban spaces? How has the mannequin stepped out of the studio and into the universe of shopping malls, becoming a commodified representation of the human body? Where do the boundaries of our bodies currently lie, and how are their physical dimensions extended by the influences of a digital, post-human world? We talked to the curator of the exhibition titled Shopwindow, Eszter Sára Szabó.

When we think of fashion, it often brings to mind something pleasant and appealing, as if it helped us connect with a more aesthetic and effortless side of life. Perhaps that’s precisely why it’s so compelling when topics like ageing, mental (and physical) health, or the search for identity emerge in the world of glamour – the graduate collections presented at the MOME Fashion Show reflect this duality.

Our minds craft the screenplay of our dreams by drawing on experiences gathered during the day. The PORTAL project offers an opportunity for immersion in a dreamlike, alternative reality while awake. In the spring of 2024, Adam Barcsai won the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design's Best Designer Maker Award with his immersive piece.

"You've stolen our culture!"; "Give back our cultural space!"; "This was a cultural hub for the Roma, I grew up here!" These are just some of the impassioned messages scrawled on the locked gates of 6 Tavaszmező Street. The building has been standing empty since the 2016 eviction of its former resident the Roma Parlament. In her project, Rebeka Winkler re-imagined this symbol of the appropriation of Roma culture.

We carry offensive words from childhood into our adult lives, where they grow, fester, and distort our self-image like malignant tumours. They lurk within us all, but not everyone’s are fed by judgemental, identity-paralysing stereotypes. Anita Horváth undertakes the formidable task of challenging the external gaze that seeks to define her.
