Timo | Timor Cohen | A touch for fabric

  • The Bird Line
  • The Mouse Line
  • The Rabbit Line
  • The Family Line
I had to share with you Timor’s inspiration, here goes: “A small case of multicolored threads I once inherited. A well-loved shirt, wrong sized, I couldnt pass on for its magnificent texture. A jar of buttons. A handkerchief with grandpa’s initials. An embroidered pillow cover, hole included. A romantic dress once found in a second hand shop abroad… The desire to sew these together, to make something new, was born of the materials themselves”.
Pure magic!

Yoav Kotik | Recycled bottle cap jewelry

Yoav collects beverages and beer caps in order to create unique jewelry, “precious metals” as he calls them.
I love watching the way each bottle cap comes to life!

Ubico Studio | Ori Ben-Zvi | Recycled nature

  • Shelf drawers | Salvadrawer
  • Legged cabinet | Lennard
  • Stool | Stump series
  • Stump series | A detail of the oli stool
  • Shelf drawers | Salvadrawer
I didn’t think recycled objects can look so chic! The guys from Ubico studio say that their materials come from dumpsters, construction sites and the streets of Tel Aviv. Their work is about urban gathering and reclaiming. I think it’s time for me to start opening my eyes for new possibilities!

David Keller and Adi Zaffran | TinCan Light

Love the concept!
The guys told me that the idea was to create unusual product, instead of opening a can of olives or pickles they decided to allow users to open light.
I can’t wait to open my own light :)

I first saw Naama’s objects here. She designs furniture using disposed objects. “Initially I decided to explore my surroundings and search for disposed objects as the base materials for my work. I was wandering around the city, visiting construction sites and peeking into containers. In my expedition I discovered that people throw away objects not only because they are broken or damaged but also because of the desire to renew and refresh their environment. These, I thought were wonderful working materials.” I look forward to see her next invention…

Sisteram | Rahya and Meital Mitrani | The love for all things fabric

The two sisters know what rocks! When thinking about their line, Rahya and Meital came up with a way of being eco friendly. The winter accessories were created out of the materials left behind after they finished cutting all the clothes {The girls have a clothing line as well}.

MiDekel | Comme il faut boutique | Eco branding

Michal and Dekel’s concept of the common shopping bag for the Comme il Faut fashion house was reusing existing bags. I just love it!
I better let them explain: “As our raw material, we chose cement sacks… we purchased sacks from the company that had been rejected for use. We chose to express the brand’s identity by means of adhesive tape bearing the companys logo. The tape states the fact that the bag was made of a sack that had been rejected for use.”
