Pecha-Kucha Night Budapest vol. 15 & party
october 8. 20.20–02.00

Museum of Applied Arts
Budapest 1091, Üllői avenue 33-37.

What sushi means in gastronomy, or sumo in sports, Pecha Kucha means in the architecture and design scene! Short, concise, cool. Pecha Kucha Nights where architects, designers and artists introduce their work are organised in two hundred cities worldwide based on the original Tokyo idea. The secret of the brief, focused and interesting presentations lies in the one and only rule of the night: presenters can show 20 pictures, each for 20 seconds. The tittle-tattle is followed by a DJ-VJ party from 23.00.

Organised by KÉK-Hungarian Contemporary Architecture Centre, WAMP and the Museum of Applied Arts

How can design and movement grasp an idea and mediate it by strengthening each other? At the Jewellidea performance, searching the answer to this question, the four elements come to life on the stage. The creations of jewellery designers (Bernadett Bodor, Noémi Gera, Eszter Máté, Fanni Vékony) and the productions of dancers (Dance Dimensions Modern Dance Club, choreographer: Anna Gellén) were inspired by the energies of fire, water, earth and air.

Turkish tasting

Tradition and design in contemporary Turkish design culture
october 6. 18.00

POINTZERO
1025 Budapest
Szépvölgyi avenue 92/g.

Less than a decade ago products made in Turkey were more about quantity than quality. From this apparently featureless background, one of the greatest surprises of the international design world, Turkish design deploying exceptional talents and creating an image of its own has emerged by now. What does it feed upon and why is it so successful? The editors of Interieur magazine try to answer this question in the form of lectures spiced with culinary delights.
