Ceo And FounderHunap StudioBudapest, Hu -
Ceo & FounderHunap Studio Dec 2009 - PresentBudapestWhether we are speaking about graphic design, industrial design or architecture, one of the cornerstones of a desirable experience is uniqueness. That is what makes the creator outstanding and it is what the customer desires as well. Nevertheless, thriving for uniqueness is the utmost way of putting the individual in focus.To showcase the advantages yielded by the duality of our creative process, we decided to capitalize the second “d” from “individual” – thus, our slogan is very much like our way of work: the result of two individuals very much alike and yet so different, trying to squeeze the extraordinary into simplicity: “indiviDual”.Our service offer: architectural plannings,product design, conceptual design, package design, graphic design, web design, character and mascot design, video cutting and rendering. -
OrganizerNoise Camp Jan 2014 - PresentNOISE camp organized cooperatively with the KreaKids studio from Kézdivásárhely (Târgu Secuiesc). The camp takes place in every August in a different township in Háromszék region.The aim of this camp is to intensify the NOISE: “if there is noise, there is life.” Local people and outsider professionals can get in touch by using art projects, since these artworks will be made based on the discovery of the region. Moreover, while the participants are gathering information about the region, they can focus on its values and problems. During this process we can also gather more information about these small townships and their inhabitants. The final products, such as the clothing collections, or different structures will stress and represent the region’s values. Hence the artworks might make the township recognisable on the tourist map. -
Co OwnerCsomopont Jan 2014 - PresentKézdivásárhely“A plan, possibilities and dreams... encouraging the region’s improvement by using local facilities as well as the creativity of youth; thereby developing the region’s tourism and improving its visual culture.”In January of 2014, the CsomóPont association in Háromszék region came to fruition. Since that time, little by little, this group has been improving Háromszék with various projects, talks, and workshops. Our activities try to focus on needed resources, such as the region’s cottage industry with the aim of bringing together the traditional trades with today’s environment.
