| Galit Weitzman | A touch of kitsch |
| That’s a first for me… Clay jewelry! What a unique material. Galit describes her work as delicately handmade jewelry with hints of kitsch and romanticism, and as she put it “I’m a nostalgic girl”. I think we can all see that:) You can get in touch with Galit here: galitweitzman {at} gmail {dot} com |
| Shiri Hyman | Nostalgic Vibe |
| I know I have told you before about Shiri’s designs, since than I discovered that she not only designs jewelry but also bags. Shiri starts her process by collecting leathers, fabrics and accessories from various places and different eras and it influences the character of her designs and creations. Because of the nature of her work, some designs are literally one of a kind. I had to share those amazing tapestry pieces with you! You can get in touch with Shiri here: shirihyman1 {at} gmail {dot} com |
| Student Break | Gur Kimel | Nature Calling |
| The concept behind Gur’s work is making people see the beauty of nature and we sure do! Gur is a student at the Industrial Design Department of Holon Institute of Technology. You can read more about his inspiration at the lovely Scoutie Girl blog and I would visit his Etsy shop. You can get in touch with Gur here: gur.kimel {at} gmail {dot} com |
| Wapa Studio | Ady Shapira | Porcelain Affairs |
| I don’t know much about the artist but I can tell you that I just love the way the light shines through the porcelain! You should visit Ady’s Etsy shop for some more Tea light Delight. |
| Talia Gon Asif | Alice |
| I always loved Alice in wonderland so when Talia sent me pictures of her latest line I was so happy to find out that she has a soft spot for the story herself. I adore the clovers and hearts, the blacks and reds. I look forward for her next collection! You can get in touch with Talia here: taliagons {at} gmail {dot} com |
| TabooPlus | Yossi Shamrik | Strings |
| You have to watch this a-m-a-z-i-n-g video clip! I promise you won’t regret it! The video is a mix of frame by frame animation and crocheting animation. The background images were knitted into an 8 meter long piece. You can listen to TabooPlus music here. www.tabooplus.co.il |
| Hila Rawet Karni | Kipul | It feels like art |
| I still can’t believe how absolutely stunning those necklaces are! Hila’s collection was created with various types of folded paper sheets. The choice of paper, shade and texture provides a different character to each piece. FYI, kipul means folding in Hebrew. {DesignBreak found Hila here} Luckily now you can find this amazing jewelry at Hila’s new Etsy shop. www.industrial-jewellery.com |
| Student Break | Nitca | Winter season and beyond |
| Linor is a student at the Textile Design Department of Shenkar College of Engineering and Design. I can stare at Linor’s scarfs all day long! I love the fact that every piece is made stitch by stitch and row by row. I’m sure it’s a hard work but it looks amazing! I’m especially obsessed with the felted ones and as you all know, every shopping spry starts with a tiny obsession. BTW, Nitca means thread in Russian. You should definitely visit Linor’s Etsy shop. Oh, and she also has a lovely blog. You can get in touch with Linor here: sh_linor {at} hotmail {dot} com |
| Liebling Shoes | Perfection all the way |
| This time I’m going to let the shoes talk… I’ll just say that Karni Reshef and Lior Livne are the most talented shoe designers I have seen in a long time! I love their interpretation for the classic oxford shoe! FYI, Liebling means Darling in German. www.liebling-shoes.com |
| Student Break | Daniel Zelig | Ceramic Jewelry |
| It took me a while to find the designer behind this amazing necklace and I’m so glad I found Daniel! Daniel is a student at the Industrial Design Department of Holon Institute of Technology. She told me that she fell in love with ceramics a year ago and since then she can’t stop. I can promise you that this is not the last time you will hear about Daniel’s designs… She told me that there is more to come real soon and I can’t wait! You can get in touch with Daniel here: shablula {at} gmail {dot} com |
| Tami Ganor | Seashells Crave |
| As I told you before, I have a weakness for all things seashells. I wish it was summer already. |
| Break Buddies | Hamazleg Blog |
| I just love Ronen’s blog. Hamazleg {the fork in hebrew} was the first Israeli blog in my google reader. His blog is an interactive heaven! Ronen, thank you for the post ;) See what he wrote here. {Ronen’s blog is hebrew friendly} www.hamazleg.co.il |
| Student Break | Reut Pardo | While awake |
| And now for something a bit different. At first I was drawn to the beautiful colors of Reut’s drawing but than I discovered the touching story behind them… Reut is a 2009 Graduate of the Visual Communications Design Department of Holon Institute of Technology. Those drawing are taken from her graduation project which was a short animation film. The film describes a fantasy world as a way of coping with the loss of her uncle who was killed in an aircraft crash. You should definitely watch the movie here. You can get in touch with Reut here: reutpardo {at} gmail {dot} com |
| Osnat Har-Noy | We need to check other perspectives |
| Osnat has an architectural way of thinking… don’t you agree? Her design is characterized by minimalism, clean lines and simplicity. My Holy Trinity :) You can visit her Etsy shop. You can get in touch with Osnat here: osnat.harnoy {at} gmail {dot} com |
| Michelle Sebbag | The quest for perfection |
| I like Michelle’s way of thinking. She doesn’t sketch before she begins working on a piece and as she says ” I begin with a thought. The process and the materials allow me to translate that thought into something tangible”. I’m drawn to the fact that in Michelle’s pieces there is a thin line between a jewel and a sculpture. You should definitely visit her klimt02 page. You can get in touch with Michelle here: michelle22 {at} 013 {dot} net |
