SHELL chair

industrial design 2. Chair Rehabilitation 5.0 supervisors: István Juhász, András Kerékgyártó

vocational instructor: Csaba Szilágyi 2022 autumn

The goal of the course was a creation of a unique chair. It was based on an early seat which is called the Budapest chair. We had to use the metal frame as a base. My final seat and back surface were made of plastic so the object can detach by flipping. This is a single item. The original brown legs were painted loud and bright colors to be in balance with the neutral, rounded, and embraced areas. I achieved shape-forming and workshop skills through this project.

The practical process gave me various experiences, which were comprehensive and complex. The study and test defined the final body, which included the parts of the explanation and the functional features. I imitated the connection between the seat and the back. I observed the physical aspects of the form and frame, the balance and contrast.

The embraced surface aims is to give comfort. The rods of the back were hidden with the top and botton closing. The rounded shells have a fine radius which makes a continuous shape. The prototype was made with PVC foam which is the most useful material to show how furniture looks like modern industrial technology. To give an efficient fastening for the back I created strutting inside of the shell. The bright color of the frame and the plastic body is able for indoor and outdoor space also.

RECEPCION desk

industrial design 2. Form Studies: Mass Production supervisor: Dániel Lakos workshop instructor: László Marhoffer

2022 autumn

The topic of the course was to create a reception desk for a big aula. It has to represent its space and defines its institute. We don’t need to work on the details and deeper functional parameters. The most important focus was to influence the viewer. We pay attention to the scales, the views, and the comparison of the object throughout the process.

My institution is the school so firstly I checked some architectural buildings and interior spaces in this topic. I saw some concepts about colored walls and lines as infographic designs on the surfaces at these scenes which give me an idea about writing. Writing is an individual form of people that connects to schools because of learning. At a young age, the youth generation has a journey of studying as a line that has a beginning, a process, and an end.

I finished this project with a model in plaster at 1:20. I learned how to make decisions and how many ways can occur in one project. When we want to give something special to people, we have to be concrete and simple.

MERCURE delivery system

2021 autumn

Mercure is a delivery system that uses the drivers’ transportation in the city. It includes a fixable case with four places for the car’s roof rack. The packages travel throughout the driver’s daily routine. An application keeps in touch with everybody and follows the journey. The sender can able to choose an optimal way, the driver gets rewarded for his service and the parking time makes the receipt of the package longer.

To merge self-using of vehicles and the process of delivery to reduce CO2-emission. The transport of products in optional ways decreases environmental pollution, prices, and logistic time by 90%. The goal of the system is sustainability, efficiency, and redefining the customer habit on a microeconomic level.

The light on the case shows the using box which can open with a mobile phone connection. The whole system can take apart from the roof rack and close to a tiny sheet as a turned-off mode. A learned how to think of a system that has various factors and complex operations. Transportation depends on the availability of the vehicles in the environment.

team partner: Alisa Bernhardt

2022 autumn

Lightric aims to give a secure journey to teenagers between school and home. The electric scooter is available in a permanent way and provides live tracking for parents. Nowadays micromobility a developing and useful transportation sector besides the typical transportation manners. The youth generation’s habits and preferences are personal ways that can variable individually.

The device has a backpack holder between the deck and the handlebar. It supports healthy upright posture to reduce back pain and spinal problems because of the wearing of school bag at a young age. Lichtric provides education for users also, it focuses on rules, individuality and responsibility in transportation.

The service includes a helmet in three colors also. The handlebar is adjustable and shows journey information. The navigation which is a touchscreen panel can foldable. The electric scooter was equipped with lights that rounded around the shape. The charging needs could be solved in schools below the classes. Working in a team was an experience because we can share the tasks and opinions which can reveal some other perspectives.

Retro: Bless or curse?

supervisor: István Juhász

2021 spring

This was an optional course that was based on retro memories. We made research about influences, experiences, and motivations. These aspects have a deep connection to the present so the Hungarian eighties influences for the future generation. My topic is side-lake bathing and beaching and I asked some elderly of their experience, vibe, and feeling.

This activity has a heritage for now and it was a perfect time to spend the vacation together and close to nature. Relaxation is getting more relevant nowadays because we forget how to stop and spend our spare time refilled. Vacation time in the eighties starts at the beginning of the summer and in this period people could get through their work issues and could be free temporarily. Water cleans the people inside and outside so it's a kind of rebirth. The symbol of bathing is connected to the Hungary culture also because it’s built on a huge wellness sector and widespread service.

The objects of the topic are various and iconic. My chosen object is a lounge bed because it defines the thoughts of bathing and the functionality of comfort. The designed sunbed was made for using attributes plus laying and storage. The shape of the form is from the wave and the colors of the pastel give a mood from the past. In the future would like to make a prototype in recycled plastic with other extra functions. I learned a lot about sensibility and empathy from my interviewees which help to design efficiently.

vocational instructor: Csaba Szilágyi

2023 spring

Joy training kit gives an effective and whole set for anybody who wants to train in nature. The set is based on functional training which moves complex parts and muscles on the body. These tools help to do exercise processes from the beginning to the end. Joy can be portable everywhere and other personal things could include, like your towel, your water bottle and your wallet or keys.

The main object, the cylinder is useful for muscle relaxation and coordination exercises. Inside the cylinder, you can find a functional rope with handles that can bind to trees and it is useable for adjustable straps with carabiners. The set has a mattress that gives comfort for floor exercises and sitting. Joy is compact and thin to use and it brings nature and a healthy lifestyle to the people.

The kit can develop with digital functions like a media item on the cap for phone charging and music listening. Joy has some way to create from sustainable materials or use them for specific demands such as yoga or collective training. I learned how many possibilities and individual ideas can reveal from users and how to test prototypes with them.
