About

I graduated from the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, majoring in ceramic design. I consider real problem-centered functional design to be important, to which I try to find answers to the best of my ability, but I also create autonomous works.

babka - economical, environmentally conscious wood-fired heating

As a result of the energy crisis and, in parallel, the strengthening of environmentally conscious attitudes, consumer demand for alternative heating solutions has also increased. As a designer and creator, my goal is to reflect on this and contribute to environmentally conscious heating solutions on the market by designing a small, easy-to-assemble, economical, eco-fireplace tile stove that takes local aspects into account. The design process was preceded by the research and development of our own basic materials, the results of which promoted efficient operation and provided the opportunity for structural and formal innovations.
