The place that is dominated by emotions, memories and personal objects, and that is capable of translating the new factors in a multitude of resourceful ways, in addition to incorporating them as elements of the living environment.

Technology, which is invisibly present everywhere in our objects, facilitates working from home, and presents us with objects that think for us, combined with interior decoration styles that amalgamate the styles and materials of remote countries, and a way of thinking that prefers community to individuals are all materialised into countless objects (or remain in virtual reality, for that matter) in the hands of competent designers, and make our homes a centre of life for the 21st century man.

HOME SWEET HOME the opening exhibition of the 12th Budapest Design Week welcomes visitors in a special venue and in an exceptional professional milieu, as the magical space of the Museum of Applied Arts is also the home of the exhibition of the 2015 Hungarian Design Awards and Design Management Award, as well as the Collective Imagination – Ibero-American Design Biennial (BID14) travelling exhibition that plays a key role in this year’s Spain, Guest of Honour programs.

HOME SWEET HOME exhibition

The opening exhibition selecting primarily from the works of young Hungarian talents aims at exploring how notions like environmentalism, multiculturalism, sharing economy, the revolution of technology and gastronomy that play a defining role all over the world are translated into objects by designers. How the world leaks into our homes, how our micro-environment transforms into a mirror of the society, and how designers are inspired by the big changes of history.

HOME SWEET HOME exhibition is open between 25th September and 15th November 2015 in the Museum of Applied Arts (1091 Budapest, Üllői av. 33-37.), open each day (except Monday) from 10:00 am till 6:00 pm.
