Up until now i’ve been used to visiting graduate shows back home in Israel each and every year I get super restless and can’t wait to see some really exciting and original designs. This year I won’t be able to do so BUT I have an opportunity to explore the ones in San Francisco and I’m up for the challenge. Going to unfamiliar territories, experiencing different perspectives and above all getting to know some new graduates. Over the weekend I began my 2013 Graduates journey and first was the California College of the Arts. I’ll tell you all about it but for now let me leave you with some of my favorite projects.

Tesler+ Mendelovitch are Orli Tesler and Itamar Mendelovitch. These two are a creative couple, who are making their first steps in the design scene and it seems like they are here to stay. While still in design school, they began creating wooden diamonds and since then wood is all they care about! You won’t hear any complaints from this side of the screen, since they moved on to wooden textiles… Since I first bumped into their wooden clutches all I want to do is hold one in my hands…

Lately I have an unexplained attraction to textiles. I guess that’s why the minute I stumbled upon TEX, I had to share it with you. But let’s start at the beginning… TEX is a ceramic tile collection inspired by textiles’ textures designed for Mutina by Raw Edges. “The shape of the tile is a simplified enlargement of the basic knitted stitch: when looking carefully into a knitted textile, a repetition of stitches can be seen aligned in symmetric rows next to each other.” Yael and Shay, the two behind Raw Edges, are a big mystery to me since they work their asses off in their London studio and that’s why they don’t have time to be seen online…
