Israeli Design Week December 15-17, 2022 - works in the arco collection studio and the creator Maor Aharon (Arco Collection, Maor Aharon, PR - Israeli Design Week)
The Israeli Design Day will take place this year for the first time and will span the entire weekend (December 15-17).
As part of the events, visitors will be able to get to know the story behind a locally designed product and the individual designer, the one who gets up in the morning and sews, engraves, glues, nails, cuts, presses, bends, burns - all to produce one single item.
The story that stands behind a designed product, behind the designer who dreamed it and later created it, the sources of inspiration, the thoughts and reflections that led him to choose a certain shape and color are what make the particular item of much deeper value than simply being beautiful or less so.
The discussion about design is much broader than the discussion about the aesthetic value, and this discussion Day of Design seeks to expand and make it accessible to a wide audience of young people and adults, children and parents.
Studio spaces of Tel Aviv designers will be open throughout the weekend, for independent and guided tours, including for children, and will also host designers from outside Tel Aviv. Special discounts. In addition, there will be fascinating experiential workshops of creating wood.
