My study is my temple. I need everything there to be exactly the way I want it, in order for me to be able to do some work.

Anyone who doesn’t know the story of Hanukkah misses out. It is a fabulous story, of light and darkness, about very little hope, and a lot of faith, it is a story of a miracle that happened a long time ago.

In fact, this is a great story for the winter days, combined with the spirit of Christmas all around. Light scares away darkness, good overcomes evil – classic. One of my favorite traditions in Hanukkah is the dreidel game – so much fun, spin it and try to guess which letter it will fall on. Continue reading →

From all aspects of design, I believe light is one of the most important ones. Light can create the exact ambiance you want, it can maximize a space, or minimize it as you please. Light can bring out a cheerful atmosphere or create a serious vibe. In many ways, light means life. When I saw Tord Boontje’s Bright Times set, I thought to myself: This is probably one of the most unique, exquisite candle holder designs I’ve seen in quite some time. Continue reading →

When it was my turn to host a dinner party I knew I had to bring on the “X Factor”. Every one of my friends had that something they were famous for, I had nothing. I knew that cooking wise this will be a lost cause as I’m nowhere close to my friends ability and I knew my servings wouldn’t make the cut, it was time to look at the big picture.

I found exactly what I needed – the beautiful Bel Occhio Pendant, by Pablo Design, is a combination of both a multi-position spot light and a suspension lamp. Continue reading →
