Is it a house or a gallery?

Home of Israeli art collectors

Every design choice in this house was made to match and compliment the Israeli art collection, the ceramic items of local artists and the toolbox of the homeowners.

The result is layers upon layers of delicate colors and textures that give a stage to the real art

"The public space is rich in works of art and as such it was important in the new design to create a bright shell, a kind of clean white canvas that would give it a place of honor and allow it to tell its story," explains the designer.

"To this end, I worked on several levels: First, I adapted the electricity and lighting to the latest furniture placement program so that it would also emphasize the art itself - pictures, urns, sculptures and beautiful tools incorporated in different areas of the space. Most of the lighting fixtures are minimalist." They change and look like art details for everything. "

"All carpentry details have been designed CUSTOM MADE to suit the shapes and dimensions of the space, including the tool cabinet in the dining area, a minimalist and floating iron library that wraps around the living room wall and of course the kitchen. The sloping wood ceiling in the double space is painted white. "In addition, furniture, accessories, textiles and rugs have been carefully selected for the various functions, which support the concept of design and help create a space with the character of a warm, enveloping and inviting art gallery."

Niv Toledano took care to produce in each of the spaces a layering of materials, textures and prints built in layers to create an original and up-to-date look.

While the shell remains classic, almost neutral, the large mass-bearing items form a background and on their backs are laid out secondary elements, tone on tone, gradually lightening to dark (gradation).

Small items, such as pillows, artefacts and accessories, are the ones that add a colorful and formal dimension to the space and provide drama and interest in the space.

For example, in the living room, the designer matched an authentic vintage rug in powder shades with iron chairs upholstered in green velvet, together they form a colorful collage that corresponds with the Israeli artwork that hangs in the space.

In the center she combined a table with an amorphous surface made of natural stone and iron legs and the oriental side table like the drum made of hammered metal.

A light-white work of art that also hung in the living room space makes intelligent use of textures.

The formal silence around her allows her to stand out.

In the dining area, too, everything revolves around Israeli art - in the center is a knights' table with an oak plank in the Versailles parquet model and around it are 8 May chairs made of a minimalist iron frame with a backrest and a seat made of saddle leather.

The nearby tool cabinet incorporated kitchen utensils from a private collection of homeowners, also created by local artists.

The kitchen carpentry was designed by Niv Toledano in clean, light but warm lines that give a stage and blend well with the dark appliances and the kilim rug that adds a dimension of warmth to the kitchen.

The designer also designed a pantry room for them with plenty of storage space and a dedicated space for the air conditioning units that leave the public space ceiling clean.

At the exit to the balcony she placed an intimate dining area that includes a round table and rattan chairs.
