DESPLAY – Recolour the old!
Playful design workshops for children
October 8, 9.
15:00-18:00
Old, run-down, boring objects gain new life at the workshops. What would you do with grandma's old food-mixer, grandpa's old records, or your old toys? No one uses them any more, but you would not like to throw them away? Let us recolour the old objects together, let us give them a new function! Bring the objects you can no longer use at home, build from what has been hidden in the cellar and let us bring them back to life!
Organised by Wanda Balogh, Panni Pais, Heni Fiáth and Budapest Design Week
DESIGN TOURS
Wrought and cast iron beauties in the city of Budapest
October 9.
Sunday 9:45 and 12:45
DESIGN TOURS
Our traditional and popular tour programs call the attention of the people living in Budapest to the treasures of the city that are hardly known, or receive less attention than they deserve. This year participants are introduced into the historical and contemporary architectural glass artworks of Pest's downtown area known the world over, while the tour honouring the wrought and cast iron beauties of the city aim at discovering treasures discreditably neglected by the inhabitants of the city. The lucky ones will have the chance to visit the Schiffer-villa designed by József Vágó and is a representative of the late secession, then can take a walk among the colourful, modern looking houses of the experimental Óbuda housing estate developed in the sixties. The city walks are led and made unforgettable by expert “tourist guides”.
Registration for the Design Tours is between 19th and 23rd September by e-mail: erzsebet.ruboczki@designterminal.hu. Maximum 35 persons can participate in each tour, so registrations are accepted and confirmed in the order of receiving the e-mails. We can not accept registrations that arrive earlier or later.
For most of the time we do not even pay attention to the wrought and cast iron gates, balconies and stair-railings decorating the downtown area of Pest. Ferenczy Noémi-awarded and Hungarian Arts Award winner János Lehoczky ironsmith-designer guides the tour and talks about the works of Gyula Jungfer, József Hochmann, János Lepter, Ede Pick, as well as the Forreider and the Schiller firms, introducing participants into the secrets of a profession that flourished a century ago.

Blood Mountain Foundation (BM) in cooperation with London-based Technology Will Save Us (TWSU) organises a workshop contributing to the Stories From Central Europe exhibition with the aim of uncovering a number of local design issues and develop a new body of work to be completed with the public's participation during the workshop. The result will be a collection of ideas, objects, products, services and experiences where participants will be able to produce solutions and ideas for shared design issues. The preface to this workshop is that technology and design can facilitate everyone in becoming more resourceful and independent in one’s everyday lives. The event will address the benefits of teaching and practising design for people without prior experience and will explore alternative teaching methods outside existing professional and vocational training methods.
