London based Hu+ Collective represents a collection ofunique Hungarian brands, with great stories about connectingto our natural environment, giving back to our communities and bringing new meaning to our heritage.
We are delighted to be invited back to Pulse after our first showlast year. It is a great honour to be one of the featured areasof the International Design Pavilion.
This year our stand is called Hothouse Hungary, inspired bythe ‘palm house-like’ building of Olympia, to celebrate the newvenue of Pulse. Palm trees and exotic plants create a wonderfullylush environment, filled with the treasures of Hungarian design.
The concept comes to Pulse through our collaboration with Budapest based Design Terminal.
Absoloot is a creative studio providing premium print solutions as well as
producing their own line of stationery.
Their passion is quality, so they payclose attention to the details of everyelement of the print process, be it finding the best possible paper, inkor design. They combine traditionaland innovative solutions to create timeless value and outstanding quality.
In collaboration with the Jane Goodall Institute, Absoloot’s Extinct Collectionof premium notebooks raises theawareness of animal species at the brink of becoming extinct.
Constantly experimenting, Lamoppe ignores the conventions and takes inspiration from her sketches that she doodles all the time. Sometimes
the immediate environment provides the best idea, and a half-cut cabbage ends up on a screen-printed pillow.
She also loves the challenge of showing the play of light and colour, to describe textures found in nature. Some cushions are printed with high quality sublimation and hand screen-printing technology.
Upcycling is not a question of being fashionable for Re+Concept, it
is the nature of their design method.
Their aim is to promote environmental awareness by design tools. Their design is inspired by the continuously emerging customer needs and the conscious use ofmaterials that utilise the beneficial attributesof used fabrics, while their combination strengthen the function of the designed products. Re+Concept supplies bags,tote bags, baskets and small cases.
MAACRAFT is a design oriented social employment program. Their products
are created using the achievements of crafttraditions, though their forms they reflect contemporary object culture.
In today’s technology-filled and virtual world, “craft” is popular again, in both high and mass cultures. The role of handicraft traditions is also important in contemporary design. This social workshop fits in this trend,and connects the ideas of the designerswith the employment of disabled people.
Hannabi is a Budapest based furniture and product design company. Right from the start, it has had a close collaboration with traditional
craftsmen in order to emphasise the values of Hungarian artisan skills. Hannabi’s main profile focuses on high quality sofas in small series,with keen attention to detail. The sofas are upholstered uniquely using the progressivity of the fashion industry. This progressivity is also reflected in the brand’s soft furnishing range that is launched at Pulse.
Recalling vintage forms,RIENNE Creations fade the contrast
between classic feminine elegance and contemporary street style,
while the jewelleries havemany elements from the
Hungarian folk arts.
As a designer, Adrien Nagy worked in Milan, Budapest
and just before embarking on her own jewellery line, she was part ofMarc Jacobs’ team.
Award winning Hungarian perfumerViktoria Minya acquired the art of fragrance
formulation in the cradle of modern perfumery, the picturesque French city of Grasse.
After working for various perfume houses in the region, she decided to embrace her own talents through the founding of her own company and signature fragrance line, for which she cherishes the use of the finest quality ingredients and originalcreation techniques. As an independent artist, hercreativity is not bound by constraints; Viktoria carefully formulates her creations by following onlythe inspiration of her heart and deepest emotions.
Objects floating lightly in the air, these are the products of ADAMLAMP, whose secret is the
lightsome game of geometric and natural forms that play with the imagination.These creatures are based on the play of shadow and light that makes a unique and peculiar phenomenon.
Each form is designed and cut digitally, and assembled by hand to produce real character and quality. These lamps draw the attention immediately and dominate every place and space.
There is only one rule to the game: create a form by placing the prisms next to each other to form a continuous surface.
The designers of LOGIFACES were inspired by 3D modeling softwares, using triangles as basic elements to create complex forms and surfaces. LOGIFACES started out as an idea to bring these complex geometries to a real, non-virtual space. The weight and touch of the concrete material really capture the essence of the game.
Designer Nori Vido has a passion for cooking, and just like many amateur chefs, she knows that a meal is not done with the cooking. The serving has to be
perfect too. This is why Nori decided to design her first concrete plate collection, the perfect canvas to tasty meals. All of her concrete plates are handmade and machine washable, available in two types of finish to fit your taste, and meals.
Nori’s new hangers come in 8 different styles with selectable width. All of themare designed for multifunctional purposes to provide a proper space for suits,pants, skirts or neckties.
Opening new dimensions of creative furniture design is the main philosophy
of Plié by Atelier.Every piece is made of individual and fresh tailoring combined with innovative new furniture production technology.
The Plié Collection is a result of a nearlytwo-year long process of technological experiment with wood and the art of tailoring. The vision was to mix the artisanship of tailoringwith manufacturing furniture. The soul of the project is a flexible yet stable laminated panel type that can be easily and individually tailored and is free of any traditional furniture joints. The experience of creating a Plié furniture from a flat sheet is given to the hand of the end user.
David Tarcali, member of Budapest based Studio Nomad, is the designer of the 3LEGS coffee and side table collection. The three different types
of tables are inspired by geometric patterns and architectural shapes.The 3LEGS name reflects the simplicity of how these forms work. Each table is folded from a single sheet of three-millimetre-thick steel, whichgives its character and abstract appearance seen from different perspectives.

Peter Toronyi, the Red Dot awarded young product designer’s idea was to create a specific spice mortar, which is able to crush and
serve ground paprika, and will be used for generations. Papr!kum not only grinds paprika, but any other kinds of dried spices like fennel, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg or star anise, giving us the chance to conjure our own spice cocktails or freshly made spice mixes. Just 5-15 seconds, and the result is a coarse to fine ground seasoning, depending on how strongly Papr!kum is shaken.
With 15 years of experience in art direction and urban biking, George and Christian designed a multi-functional bag. Their first product,
Bigo Bag Five is designed for urban bikers and those, who live their life with passion and flair. They designed a light and convenient bag, whichby some quick adjustments can be turned into a rain poncho, a baby slingor a picnic blanket. By zipping together two or more bags it can be turned into a huge carrier. By folding it back to its own pocket it can be also turned into a bum bag.
