“TypicaLocal miniatures attempt to create a snapshot of our environment here and now with a non-romantic gaze. This miniature exhibition provokes discussion and contemplation about design and architecture, about our local surroundings and about the time we live in.”
What can I say, Tel Aviv never looked so white and minimalistic. I think I like it this way ;)
BTW, the man behind all this white beauty is Johnathan Hopp.

Student Break | Shimi Cohen | Rock Paper Scissors

A student assignment turned into an official music video is a first here at DesignBreak. Can you imagine, Ivri Lider, one of my favorite singers, calling and asking you to turn your one minute assignment into a full blown music video?! Shimi Cohen’s assignment was themed “Rock Paper Scissors”. He decided to tackle it by dealing with virtual relations in general and in the city of Tel Aviv in particular.
FYI, Shimi is a second year student at The Visual Communication Department of the Shenkar College of Engineering and Design.

Matkot TLV-Berlin | Something to Think About…

  • by Einat Stekler
  • by Dalia Gefen

  • by Gad Ulman
A group of Israeli artists received a pair of Matkot (beach paddle ball rackets) as their medium. The artists, in their own way, developed a dialog with the material and the idea. The past and the future, the “here” and “there” and above all the present. The artists are struggling with anguish as they create their artwork from their inner being while trying to bridge the contrast that the Matkot game symbolizes in the “give and take” between people.

Matkot Tel Aviv-Berlin

Ron Nadel | Tel Aviv in Silkscreen Prints

  • Azrieli Towers | Tel Aviv | 1999
  • Reading Power Station| Tel Aviv | 1937
  • Shalom Meir Tower| Tel Aviv | 1965
  • Ron's work in progress
It all began as a poster for Israel’s Independence Day capturing the essence of the country at its 61st birthday while the main theme was Tel Aviv’s 100th anniversary. Lately Ron made a special adaptation for silkscreen prints celebrating Tel Aviv’s special monuments and I have to admit he makes me want to explore silkscreen prints myself. There is nothing like a lovely two color combination to bright up my day!

Castro | Knitting Tel Aviv

Oh my, I’m in love with the cutest and sweetest commercial ever by Castro, which is called Hot Cardigans.
Usually I don’t tend to get excited by commercials but this one touched a soft spot and I had to share it with you all. Even though it seems like fall is not that close, the castro team made me feel it’s just around the corner.
