The Museum of Ethnography’s permanent collection exhibition has won one of the world’s most prestigious design awards, the iF Design Award for best exhibition design and implementation.
The collection exhibition, opened last autumn, won among 11,000 entries. The annual award is open to the world’s most innovative companies and institutions, and this is the first time a Hungarian museum has received such a high level of international design recognition.
The exhibition was designed and realized by the Art1st design studio at the Museum, where, after decades of waiting, it became possible to show the full spectrum of the institution’s extensive collection, something that was not possible in the museum’s former building.
The exhibition presents Hungarian and international ethnographic objects in eight main thematic units. It uses interactive elements, multimedia solutions and a unique spatial strategy to create new dimensions for contemporary museum visits. Visitors can explore various cultures from around the world, while interactive installations help them to immerse themselves in the history of the objects,

Art1st creative studio is one of Hungary’s leading exhibition design companies, known for its innovative and spectacular media design solutions. The team has been working on Hungarian and international projects for many years.
The German iF Design Award has been presented annually since 1954 to the most outstanding design solutions in the categories of product, packaging, communication, architecture and service design. This year, over 11,000 entries from 66 countries were received and ranked by a jury of 131 international experts.
The design and implementation of the Museum of Ethnography’s building has won prestigious architectural awards from Paris, the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Italy and China. It was included in Time Magazine’s collection of the World’s Greatest Architecture Projects, and was also a great success at the 18th Venice Architecture Biennale, where the museum was the central theme of the Hungarian Pavilion. Last year, the museum was voted the world’s best public building at the prestigious FIABCI awards in Singapore.
