At 12 March for the first time this year WAMP welcomes all design fans with an abundance of green plants, flowers and spring mood. This time the fair will focus on nature and design and several new brands will be introduced whose products, messages or inspiration relate to nature and sustainable lifestyle.
Among the exhibitors you will find those designers and new wave flower shops that bring nature and gardening closer to urban homes with their stylish plant- and flower creations. The exhibiting brands Bublab, Virágos Pagony (Flower Grove), Á la Lune, Flow, RisoPlant, Mágikus kert floráriumok, (Magical Garden terrariums), Naomipeli, PLAY PLANTS and Opera Fleur Virágüzlet (Opera Fleur florist) will wait with plenty of exciting special plants, airplants, succulents and flowers for those who love to spruce up their homes with exclusive natural decorations.
At our fashion section you will find more designers who apply exclusively natural materials and environment friendly techniques. LAZLO, the brand of Edina László will debut its new spring collection at WAMP, and PLANT3D will bring extraordinary jewellery which are created with 3D printing and with the use of cute tiny plants.
Wood always creates a relaxing and calm atmosphere in any interiors. The brand Binpile that is also the designer of the month in March creates variable wood modules which can be combined together in several possible ways. You can build furniture or any installation from these elements which can be used both in-and outdoor. Try it out during the day of the fair.
This time WAMP welcomes the student companies of Alternative Economical Secondary School (AKG) and the students of Moholyi- Nagy University of Art and Design Budapest (MOME). During the one-year program of AKG pupils learn how to create and sell design objects through which they develop the necessary skills of how to run a company at a very early age. Five teams will be introduced to the audience of WAMP: Sight Company, As We See Company, RBN Design Company, The Billow Company and WRU Company.
MOME design graduates will bring a wide array of beautiful ceramics, products for everyday use as well as decoration items and gift articles will be on sale. The students’ works will debut at WAMP and visitors can also buy these small-scale unique pieces.
You will also find the natural wood furniture and homewares built at the social workshops of Maacraft. The products are made by autistic workers living at the care home of Miskolc Autism Foundation with the help of designers in the frame of a special program that develop the skills of the residents in real-life employment situations. Your purchase will support the autistic people living in the home in Miskolc.
The leading wildlife organisation WWF Hungary will take part at WAMP for the first time. The mission of WWF is to conserve biological diversity, to protect our environment, to support long-term and sustainable use of our natural resources and to encourage the use of renewable energies. The foundation will sell the products of its own brand Panda Shop at WAMP and the income from their sales will support the WWF Hungary programs aimed at species and natural habitat conservation.
Healthy living and conscious thinking will also be enhanced at our gastro section where you can taste super fine gastro products made of organic and vegan ingredients. Kristóf Konyhája (Kristóf’s Kitchen), NASPOLYA NASSOLDA, and Tunki-tunki will serve vegan sandwiches, pastry and dips, Fű Juice Bár (Grass Juice Bar) will prepare freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices, and you can taste marvellous cheesecake variations at Say Cheese Budapest.
