For us, design is a form of storytelling. Each object has history, whether it’s a remembrance of childhood, a family tradition, or a contemporary reflection of who we are today. Through design, we translate these stories into tangible objects that speak to others, creating vessels for shared experiences—bridging the past, present and future. Our objects aim to spark something in the viewer: perhaps a question, a feeling, or a memory. Through the personal stories attached, we invite them to reflect on their own connections.

Do they have similar reflections that echo ours? What stories will they tell? What values will they pass on?

What are their own Fragments?

TRIO

This set of objects reflects an important Christmas tradition that is dear to my family. Eating honey, walnuts, and garlic on Christmas Eve is a cherished ritual believed to ensure a happy, prosperous, and healthy New Year. This long-standing folk tradition is still lovingly observed by my family today.

To honor and enhance the special nature of this ritual, I have designed three unique accessories: a honey dipper, a nutcracker, and a garlic slicer. Each piece not only highlights the special nature of this ritual but also serves its function as part of everyday life.

Now I know things about metalworking that I didn't know before.

ODO

The ODO birdhouse was inspired by my great-grandfather's birdhouse made from a wartime gas mask container. He was a real handyman who could make or repair anything with his own hands. He spent a lot of time in his small home workshop, where he also made tools and machines.

Unfortunately I never met him, but his love for crafting and his practical skills were passed on to my father and later to me.

The round form is achieved by felt supporting the wooden strips.

SUSZTER

My grandfather's workshop is a magical place, full of odd treasures. It has everything you can imagine, maybe even some you can't. Among these treasures are thousands of different scrap leathers. They are left over from the family shoemaking business, which was lead by my great-grandmother's sister until she was 77. She also worked from scraps that were left over from larger factories, because that was all she had available under socialism.

SUSZTER is a reimagined cobbler's chair with a seat made from these leathers, some that are even older than I am. Without cutting or altering, I use each piece as I find it, preserving the stories behind them.

It took a long time to create, but seeing my grandparents' emotional reaction made it all worth it.

RELIKVIA

A showcase is a piece of furniture that not only my grandparents, but my parents also owned. Yet, in today’s world, it’s hard to imagine a home where such a beautiful, meaningful piece could fit-one that holds memories, treasures, and family history-fitting in modern homes.

RELIKVIA is a modular design preserves that tradition, allowing you to display what matters most, while fitting gently into any size of space you have. It’s a bridge between generations, keeping our stories and heirlooms close, no matter how small the place we call home.

Each element is separable; the disassembly and reassembly of the form allude to the diversity of our memories and origins.

REJLIK

The REJLIK chair carries the memory of family heritage and concealment. It draws inspiration from family stories lived during the communist era when my great-grandparents hid our gold jewelry in secret places, concealed it under floorboards, and sewed it into their undergarments to provide a secure foundation for future generations.

Within the chair's minimalist form lies a hidden drawer, evoking the hidden secrets of the past and serving as a symbol of remembrance.

This chair serves its function, but it is not about comfort; it is about the story hidden within it.

ÚTRAVALÓ

When I was little, it was always a special feeling when my grandma packed leftovers or desserts after a family gathering. This caring gesture gave me a sense of security and belonging. These values not only live on in my personal memories but are also deeply rooted in Hungarian traditions, such as the practice of sending a “komatál”, a ritual once used to seal friendships.

ÚTRAVALÓ symbolizes this spirit in a contemporary way, yet with a touch of gentle nostalgia. The set is equally suited for serving and carrying food, incorporating traditional materials of Hungarian object culture.

The circular form represents wholeness and continuity, serving as a metaphor for sharing and community.

ESTEBÉD

The ESTEBÉD serving tray is inspired by the tradition of family supper. In our home, dinner was always a cold dish, which was eaten together, after the family bell had rung. Despite the everyday routine, cheeses, vegetables and charcuterie were never put on the table in their wrappings, but always plated for a shared meal.

ESTEBÉD creates space through the gesture of serving for the celebration of the everyday. The oak tray, with its uneven silhouette, evokes the design of traditional cutting boards, while the geometric shapes of the bowls, which can be lifted and passed from hand to hand, invite people to share a meal together.

The geometric trays contrast in form and material with the organic silhouette of the serving platter, yet blend in perfectly.

ÚSZKA

Before inflatable swimming rings became commonplace, people relied on simple yet ingenious solutions crafted from necessity and the resources at hand. One such creation was the wooden "yoke," a rectangular pinewood frame designed to keep its user afloat. Functional and durable, it reflected the practical ingenuity of the past.

The Úszka reimagines this traditional concept, blending history with contemporary design. Its sleek, ergonomic form nods to modern inflatable rings while staying true to its wooden roots. Crafted with precision and care, the Úszka offers a sustainable, practical alternative for water enthusiasts—a piece where tradition meets innovation.

The challenge was to create a perfect interaction between wood, water, and people, with a focus on timelessness and usability.
