World Break | L’Accent Nou | A Stroll on the Beach
I can’t take this weather any more! It’s SO cold and dark that I can’t even hear myself think. Well, it’s not NY by any means but for Israel it’s damn cold.
And when it’s cold all that is left to do is think about a sunny day at the beach. I have a feeling that’s why I found myself wandering into Anastasia Egórova‘s L’Accent Nou natural haven. There is something quite calming and comforting about the fact that all Anastasia’s creations come from the beautiful Mallorca island in Spain. BTW, the fact that Anastasia followed her heart and left Russia for her man is extra beautiful…

Studet Break | Max Cheprack | Oriental Clay

Imagining a ginormous machine, so you’ll be able to fulfill your vision, is one thing, actually building it, is a whole other story! I guess Max Cheprack likes to go the extra mile, his extrusion clay research led to a line of stools. I can tell it was a long and overwhelming journey. By Pushing clay through a Muslim inspired template Max created these unique stools and opened a door to some new possibilities and adventures in the ceramic world.
Here is a glimpse inside the process.
Max is a graduate of the Industrial Design Department at H.I.T.

World Break | Pigeon Toe Ceramics | The Whitey Bunch

  • Rocking Votives
  • Notched Bowl
  • Scribble Tumbler
  • Banded Butter Dish
  • Folded Salt and Pepper Cellars
I’m gonna wrap this 4th of July parade with Lisa Jones and her Pigeon Toe Ceramics clan. This gal has respect for seasonal collections. For her S/S 2011 collection, a.k.a the most beautiful thing on earth right now, Lisa created a family of white perfection.
“Because memories should be created, not collected. Because life is too short to be surrounded by anything less than beautiful. Because design should be timeless and craft should be authentic. Because your objects tell a narrative. Your narrative.” {Lisa Jones}

Israelis@MilanDesignWeek | Iris Zohar | Onion. Not What You’d Expect

“Where does a vase end and a flower begin?”
Each onion vase is a one-of-a kind solution that mirrors the variances occurring in nature.
I wish I could have a sea of onion vases on my dining table…
Well, First I need to have a dinning table ;)
