Research through Design&Craft

Dr. Renata Dezso

I am a design researcher and educator at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest, Hungary. My work is grounded in the Research through Design & Craft method, which involves using design practice to generate knowledge and understanding about the world. As a transdisciplinary designer and researcher, I have a passion for exploring the intersection of digital and material craft, transformative design, and science. Throughout my career, I have developed a diverse portfolio of design works, including solutions for social challenges, critical design interventions, and explorations of emerging technologies and design practices. I believe that the choices we make in our daily lives have the power to shape the world around us. By creating new frameworks for understanding the world, we can promote more sustainable and equitable ways of living. In 2020, I was honoured to receive the European Disability Forum (EDF) and ORACLE Awards, recognizing excellence in the use of technology to promote sustainability and social progress. More recently, in 2022, I was awarded the Gillo Dorfles Prize and the First Prize in the Trieste Contemporanea Contest.
