Colorful flower holders| Adi Kafri Adi Kafri is an independent product designer who graduated from the Holon Institute of Technology’s Industrial Design Department, where she now teaches. In her studio in Kibbutz Nahalal she designs and develops her own products as well as those of other brands. To make her “Blossom” flower holder for Ototo, Kafri conducted extensive research into the world of flower arranging. While traditional Japanese flower holders are made of metal and require a separate water container in addition to the one for the flowers themselves, “Blossom” was made via a process of plastic injection molding which means it needs only one container. Each package comes with two different-sized and colored holders – a green one (diameter: 9.3cm, height: 2.5 cm), and a pink one (diameter: 7cm, height: 6cm). Available for purchase via Kafri’s Instagram page. @kafriadi

Sculpted paper sculptures Merav Peleg Artist and designer Merav Peleg blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics. In her Tel Aviv studio, she creates paper designs using a variety of techniques, giving this one-dimensional material depth, movement, and sculptural presence. Peleg’s designs are a personal interpretation of the botanical world, one that invites joy and color into any space. They are made using white paper which is then painted onto with watercolors, creating subtle color transitions and surprising contrasts. Once the paper takes on its distinct color design, the process of building the flower then begins: it involves cutting, creasing, and assembling the petals, layer by layer, until a full, deep shape is created. Peleg’s creations are rich in texture, light, and color, and are designed to bring vitality, tenderness, and presence into the room - beautiful both individually as a single flower, or as part of a dazzling bouquet cluster. @merav_peleg
