WAMP in New York Design Week"Soft Is The New Cool" was the slogan of the emerging Hungarian design fair from 16th to 19th of May 2009 in New York Design Week. WAMP appeared in Hungarian Cultural Center New York curating this event in cooperation with I.D.Magazine.
This
season, Hungarian designers put their accent on New York Design Week.
Anyone could experience the sensual approach of 17 emerging Hungarian designers and
collectives as they showcased their newest products in animation,
jewelry, fashion, textile, interior, and product design. All the
objects in the exhibition were inspired by softness—of touch, shape, or
concept.
