My Japanese Break | It’s Complicated!

designbreak — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 11:33:39 +0000

Today is Israel’s Memorial Day.
With all the melancholic songs on the radio, the quiet streets and the sad memories, I feel like this particular picture, which I took while in Kyoto says it all…
And in three little words: It’s complicated!
Kyoto is full of tangled electric wires and I found myself fascinated by the way they turned into a perfect composition.

Just Wanted to Say Hello

Hi there my sweet breakers!
The past two weeks have been a crazy ride. Japan is indeed a magical country and then some…
There is so much that I want to share with you but for that to happen I need to beat this crazy jet lag.
SO, tomorrow bright and early I’m going to start working on a bunch of Japanese posts.
My favorite shops in Tokyo and Kyoto and the absolute must tea rooms are just few at the top of my to do list.
But first things first, a few hours of cozy sleep and then I’ll be fit to do it all.
See you tomorrow back here.
xoxo

I can’t believe I’m writing this but… I’m on my way to JAPAN for a three week stylish, minimalistic, colorful and yummy adventure. I hope I’ll be able to have it all and will be back with lots of yummy stationary and Washi Tapes and above all lots of exciting stories to share with you. Until then, you’ll still have your daily dose of inspiration so don’t forget to visit every day! If you want to share with me my experience, head to my Instagram feed, I’m sure it will be on Japanese fire ;)
Speaking about Japan… you should visit my friend, photographer Sivan Askayo’s brand new blog and read her 72 hour in Tokyo.

Breath of Designed Air | A Week with Kinetis

designbreak — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 09:05:03 +0000

Last week was a special one. The ladies behind Kinetis (a non profit organization that aims to share with the world the creative side of israel and it’s people) invited me to join their design tour. I can’t explain in words how exciting and inspiring it was to meet Jeff aka Booooooom, Andrea from designboom, Amy from Dezeen, James aka We Heart and Ben from DeTnk. These five know a thing or two about blogging and doing it the stylish way and there is nothing like talking about your greatest passion with those who don’t think you’re crazy!
They all blog for their living and they made me believe that I’m on the right track. Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart. it was a real pleasure!
