This catalog takes visitors on a journey into the rich world of Hungarian applied arts in the 1930s. Furniture, textile patterns, and packaging designs bring to life the creativity and visual impact of the outstanding Hungarian furniture designers and graphic artists of the 1930s, offering a glimpse into the modernist homes of the 1930s.
It accompanies an exhibition at the Walter Rózsi Villa, focused on design couple Gyula Kaesz and Kató Lukáts, which presents the spaces and objects of the artist couple's more than four decades of life together in one place, through the furnishings of their last home together.
The exhibition’s furnished spaces trace the evolution of domestic furniture design from the art deco of the 1920s, to the moderate modernism of the 1930s and 1940s. The exhibition evokes the colorful world in which the artist couple once entertained their guests, a world that black-and-white photographs of the period have failed to capture for posterity.
