Student Break | Leetal Rivlin | Dancing With The Sand
At the beginning of the year, I wrote about Leetal Rivlin’s sandy bowls.
Fast forward and six months later, Leetal graduated out of the Industrial Design Department at the Holon Institute of Technology, with a bunch of super stunning bowls and vases down her sleeve. Since I last heard from her, Leetal kept on playing with sand and researched all that is beautiful and unique in the world that’s beneath our feet. Sandstone rocks, dunes, erosion of rocks and scale of colors. They all got a whole new representation in Leetal’s vessels. And all that is left to say is: there is a serious awesomeness all around this thing!

Leetal Rivlin | To Sand or Not to Sand
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.

Nir Meiri | Delicate Sand

When Nir Meiri first told me of his next adventure, I didn’t know what to expect. Sand molded lamp sounded like a crazy idea that I had to see for myself. SO, the day has come and… “The use of sand as the main material plays on the tension between its wild nature – that of sand storms and vast desserts– and the delicacy of the molded end design. Despite their apparent fragility, the bulbs are sturdy, and their strength partners with that of the fixture’s metal pole.”
BTW, “Desert Storm” is now on show at Qubique Berlin. Did I mention I LOVE the name of the lamp?
