 Remember the Offbits from yesterday’s post? Well, thanks to the super cool Noa Sharon I now have a new robotic crush. Say hello to the happiest, cutest, most artistic mini robot orphanage by Brian Marshall. This guy allows his imagination to run wild and I just LOVE it! I can’t decide on my favorite cutiebot pie. Don’t worry, i”ll get there sooner than later ;)
Don’t be afraid to show some love right here or even do some good right here.

Carton | Rolling With The Board
|July 25, 2011

 There is this one store in Tel Aviv, which makes me feel like a kid in a candy store. So… it’s no surprise that it’s called by the name Delicatessen. On my last visit, I ran into some cardboard jewelries. cardboard jewelries! That’s what I just wrote. This brilliant concept is the swirly baby of Yael Gaizler, a fashion designer and Aviv Kinel, a jewelry designer who started rolling with their love for lace and crochet. They ended up with textured pieces that you can’t take your eyes away from. Trust me, I tried. If you want to find out more about this clever duo, head to their brand new Facebook Page.
BTW, “Carton” means “Cardboard” in Hebrew.

Miklum Studio | Oh Frank
|June 7, 2011

 What could you do with some old wooden cabinets and doors? I guess that if you are part of the Miklum gang you’ll think about a modular system. Right?! By modularity they mean, you can add or replace Frankies as you like till you get the perfect mix. Combining the cubes into shelves, partition, benches, TV cabinet and the list go on and on… BTW, the blocks are mostly unaltered and so reflect the natural condition of the original raw material. They really captured the old and new in a unique and fun way.
FYI, “Miklum” means “From Scratch” in Hebrew.

World Break | Emma Ware | Creative Rubber
|May 24, 2011

  • Ladder Earrings
  • Palm Necklace
  • Maria Cuff
  • Wing Earring
 When I first came across Emma Ware’s Re:Cycle creations, all I wanted to do is to grab it. But then… I discovered it was all made out of rubber and not leather as I initially thought. Such an exciting and surprising material, wouldn’t you agree? “Made by juxtaposing malleable dark rubber with polished metal, these are intricate sculptures that are framed and complimented by the body. Reflecting our curves and angles to emphasize and celebrate the beauty in nature. Soft, tactile and moveable these creations need to be seen and touched to be fully appreciated.” No need to add another word!

Israelis@MilanDesignWeek | Shir Atar | Animated Stools
|April 14, 2011

 Shir Atar’s Elevation Stools are being exhibited simultaneously at the Post Fossil exhibition in the Design Museum Holon and at the Promise Design 2001 during Milan Design Week.
I’m pretty sure he is a happy man at the moment.
“Elevation, is a family of stools made from recycled, non-woven yarns. Inspired by country landscapes, hills and mountains; this project explores new uses for traditional technology and raw materials.”
When I first laid my eyes on Shir’s fluffy stools it looked like some kind of hairy animal of some kind. I must admit that I’m loving her muted color pallet!
