The MOME Alumni Jewellery exhibition was organised in collaboration between the Liszt Institute – Hungarian Cultural Centre Bucharest and the MOME Design Institute at the exhibition spaces of the Institute and formed part of the Design Go section of the Romanian Design Week.

Curated by jewellery designer Orsolya Kecskés, the exhibition provides a comprehensive overview of the works created by designers graduating from MOME in the past 20 years, featuring items by MOME alumni many of whom have become well-known designers and teachers.

System-level thinking in the winning student projects of the ‘Jump into the Future!’ competition

Water still feels like a given in our everyday lives – but for how much longer? This pressing issue was tackled by secondary school students in the 2025 edition of the ‘Jump into the Future!’ creative competition. Working in teams, pupils from Years 7 to 10 developed bold, imaginative ideas for the future of one of life’s most essential resources. In the second round, selected teams refined their concepts in close collaboration with MOME mentors. At the final on 25 June, ten teams presented their forward-thinking visions, with four of them awarded by a jury of MOME faculty. First place went to Ísbíltúr, second to Bacsaók, third to Code Noir, while Newwave received a special prize. All four stood out not only for their creativity, but also for their systems-level approach, serving as a powerful reminder that water scarcity is no distant threat but an issue we must act on now.
