Did you see my NY Break? It’s been way too long so the minute I stumbled upon Allison Patrick’s rad lighting pendant lamps, I knew it was time to have some extra delicious New York flavor around here. It feels like Allison gives the term “crafty person” a new meaning. She is crazy talented and her lamps are so pretty! I’m sure there are piles and piles of new designs over there just waiting to come out.
BTW, you can read an interview with Allison right here or even visit her blog right here.
Just one more thing, the name behind it all is Zipper8Lighting, that’s right Zipper8Lighting, start memorizing it ;)

Do you remember My last post regarding Shay Carmon and Ben Klinger’s Manifold Clock? Anyways, these two energizers, also known as “Studio Ve” worked real hard on improving their creation and transformed their initial concept into a living and breathing 3D clock. The only thing that separates them from mass production is a tiny fortune. SO, if you want to give them a hand, head to their kickstarter campaign and show them the money! ;)
I’m sure you gonna feel good about it.

And then they became two…
The Bakery bunch used to be a threesome but lately Gil Sheffi decided to begin his own journey and the other two Gilli Kuchik and Ran Amitai are keeping the torch alive!
The two creative lovebirds (yes, they are a couple in real life as well) created the Shares Necklace. “It’s a necklace you can share with your loved one. The necklace looks beautiful as a whole and as a half allowing you to enjoy it before and after you find your other half.” Just like when we gave our childhood boyfriend a little heart charm… I guess someone is ready for valentine ;)

While discovering Mika Barr’s 3D folding pillows early this week I also had the great pleasure of finding the latest creation of one of my all time favorite jewelry designers, Nuki Sigura.
Nuki’s Royal Family for Talents Design is a three pieces set of serving trays.
Talking about being glamorous and sophisticated while hosting… Well, I’m sure not royalty by any means, but I don’t mind feeling like it for a day ;)
Oh, just one more thing this creation is coated in 14K gold. OH.Em.Gee!

I was one of those children that you had to drag out of the beach. I used to play with the sand for hours, building castles and other magical creations. I even remember crying my eyes out when the bloody wave ruined it all in a split of a second. To keep a long story short, all those memories came back the minute I stumbled upon Leetal Rivlin’s sand bowl. Such a simple yet brilliant idea! I love the way Leetal froze the sand’s movement… I feel like heading to the beach, collecting some sand and having a sand party at home.

Ilan Garibi is one of those guys that have to work with his hands 24/7. This dude folds and folds and folds paper till he drops. Well, at least that’s what it feels like.
One of Ilan’s latest collaborations was with Aqua Creations. He was responsible for all this mad folding and Ofir Zucker and Albi Serfaty were responsible for the design. The bright child is called Molecule.
You can read an interview with this mega crazy folder right here.
BTW, over the weekend I’m gonna visit Ilan’s brand new exhibition. Can’t wait!

Just like that, out of the blue, I discovered Rona Meyuchas’s world. Immediately I knew I’ll find the right time and place to get to know her up close and personal. Rona is one of those designers who seems like they can do it all! From light fixtures to lamps, from office accessories to home accessories. You name it, she designed it.
Join me while I explore behind the scenes of the “Kukka” brand in my Jerusalem Post series.

Sometimes a pillow is just a pillow but in this case it’s more like a WILLO.
If you are one of those people who really but really love their plants I have a feeling you’ll want one of these WILLO’s.
FYI, Studio Libel is the one responsible for this breath of fresh air and the duo behind it is Netanela Daniel and Pazit Yahalomi. Oh, and “Libel” stands for “Dragonfly”.
