↓ As a student I mostly found my true self in organising community life. We created websites, a file-sharing system, and even founded a folk dance group. ↓ I was on Erasmus grant when I met Ádám Somlai-Fischer, who showed me that architects could do much more than just design a house. ↓ I realised that I was willing to design anything as long as it impacted the world. However, the product of architecture remains local, so its impact is inevitably limited. ↓ Ádám and I worked together on the Re:orient – Migrating Architectures exhibition at the Hungarian Pavilion of the 10th Venice Architecture Biennale and within the creative community of Kitchen Budapest. ↓ During my years at Kitchen Budapest, I noticed that certain forms of collaboration spread virally around the world. ↓ These formats are like cultural software that run on people instead of computers. The only difference is that they describe the structure of a social event instead of a dataset. ↓ I started a research program called The Format Project, where we studied internationally recognized community projects. ↓ In 2019, I published our findings in the Social Design Cookbook. By mapping out the necessary ingredients, we created the Social Design Canvas as a recipe for social cooperations.
