For the first exhibition, in collaboration with Agora Collective, we chose to combine new pieces of contemporary design with antique furniture exploring the meeting points between the old and the new. Curators // Raquel Chaves, Alexandra Sebag and Iohanna Nicenboim Executive Producers // Rory Koehler and Pedro Jardim REFOUND // The exhibition Re-contextualizing the past is a recurring path in design. In Berlin, this phenomenon, in which new forms retain elements from the past, is nowadays not just a visual language, but a state of mind that promotes alternative ways of appreciating objects. With this as a main point of inspiration, PLATform initiated REFOUND, an exhibition that features pieces from now and yore and the dialogues between them. Stemming from the idea that each piece of furniture has a story to tell, the exhibition brings forth an emotional response between the pieces exhibited and the visitors. „This endeavor bridges the chronological gap between the old and the new in terms of aesthetic values, production processes and emotional connections“.

The dining room is a place where the whole family meets at the end of the day and is an integral part of our lives as well as a way to understand customs of each culture. People express their individual and social identities through the using of objects in their domestic universe. Storm Zvliar describes the phenomenon of "appropriation", where the relationship between the family members and between the family and the outside world is reflected in their objects. Trough that process, each family builds its identity. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2310700/furniture comp 5_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1067" height_o="800" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2310700/furniture comp 5_o.jpg" data-mid="11636683" border="0" align="left"/> In the moment the guests arrive, a festive ceremony takes place and we make some changes in our house (adding chairs, flowers, unfolding a table), and after all our efforts for the house to look perfect, the objects in this situation do not always express the same perfection. Unfolded tables use to be very ugly. Moreover, there is an attempt to hide the changes in the house and an example might be trying to hide the fold axis of the opening table. My goal was to design objects that can express this change between the two situations, not only providing the functional needs, but also emphasizing this change and showing the emotional and ceremonial side of that. "Hostis" set features a folding table, chair and a coat hanger. The table is designed to be used for both daily dining, dining with guests and a "in between state" where a centrepiece is created and plays an important role. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2310700/furniture comp 6_750.jpg" width="750" height="187" width_o="1067" height_o="267" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2310700/furniture comp 6_o.jpg" data-mid="11636691" border="0" align="left"/> http://iohidesign.com/Israel-Museum-Renovations http://iohidesign.com/following/iohidesign.com/Israel-Museum-Renovations Tue, 15 Nov 2011 11:50:20 +0000 IOHI design 2308789 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2308789/museum comp 4_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1667" height_o="1250" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2308789/museum comp 4_o.jpg" data-mid="12113710" border="0" align="left"/> The extensive renovation of the Israel Museum required a repositioning of existing sculptures and archeological elements, as well as positioning of recently acquired new sculptures and redesign of many sculpture pedestals. The project included close work with the curatorial team, carefully matching content, concept and composition. Though considered one project, it is in fact many different projects, each sculpture, or cluster of archeological elements requiring their specific design treatment. The project was done as part of the studio IDBruno. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2308789/picasso comp 2_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1067" height_o="800" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2308789/picasso comp 2_o.jpg" data-mid="11658420" border="0" align="left"/> As part of the museum renovations, I worked with Dror Eshed in the rebuilding of the sculpture "Profile" of Pablo Picasso. The statue was built in 1967 by Karl Nshiar Norway, and due to weather conditions it was necessary to recast it . The construction process included creating a new sculpture that actually replaces the old as the original. The super interesting process was done scanning the 5 meter hight sculpture, building a 3d model and making a nice wooden casting mold. The use of new technologies raised questions about at what extent we had to preserve the original form, or if we could fix the mistakes that had happen in the original sculpture casting. http://iohidesign.com/Other-Exhibitions-and-Environments http://iohidesign.com/following/iohidesign.com/Other-Exhibitions-and-Environments Tue, 15 Nov 2011 10:09:46 +0000 IOHI design 2273374 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/technoda 1_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1067" height_o="800" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/technoda 1_o.jpg" data-mid="11652148" border="0" align="left"/> Concept and primary design for a science exhibition Technoda, Haifa Roy-Figovsky <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/artik 1_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1067" height_o="800" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/artik 1_o.jpg" data-mid="11652288" border="0" align="left"/> Concept and design for different booths Artik Design <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/computers comp 2_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1067" height_o="800" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/computers comp 2_o.jpg" data-mid="11652089" border="0" align="left"/> Computers environment for children Israel Museum, Jerusalem IDBruno Studio <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/half year comp 1_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1067" height_o="800" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2273374/half year comp 1_o.jpg" data-mid="11658669" border="0" align="left"/> Design for the mid-year students exhibition Tal Gur Bezalel Academy of Art and Design http://iohidesign.com/Plastic-Products http://iohidesign.com/following/iohidesign.com/Plastic-Products Mon, 14 Nov 2011 21:25:08 +0000 IOHI design 2304952 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304952/ototo comp 2_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="800" height_o="600" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304952/ototo comp 2_o.jpg" data-mid="11572249" border="0" align="left"/> Ototo is a botique-style studio for product design situated in the center of Tel Aviv.

This exhibition featured 120 works -highlights from the Braginsky Collection- panning more than 2,000 years from Europe and Israel. The exhibition showed important Jewish artists, scribes, and illuminators, many of whom are unknown in the public sphere. The design of the exhibition was done by understanding the different categories and highlights, as well as the message the curator wanted to transmit. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304517/6a00d83451b05569e20120a91da000970b-900wi_750.jpg" width="750" height="499" width_o="890" height_o="593" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304517/6a00d83451b05569e20120a91da000970b-900wi_o.jpg" data-mid="11621775" border="0" align="left"/> Design and production of Einstein Exhibition as part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of the Israeli Academy of Sciences and Humanities. For the first time, the 46 pages handwritten by Einstein of the "General Theory of Relativity" had been presented in public. The challenge in this exhibition was to preserve the documents and prevent the paper and ink from decaying. In order to do that, we designed a specially darkened room, with carefully controlled humidity and temperature and displayed each page in a different compartment. The idea was to create a magical atmosphere using the big table that was already in the room, placing one page after another in separate boxes. The design brief called for an atmosphere of awe and wonder, conveying a feelingn of being exposed to the holy-grail of modern physics, considered by some to be “the most important scientific manuscript of all times”. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304517/time02 comp 5_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="1667" height_o="1250" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304517/time02 comp 5_o.jpg" data-mid="12113613" border="0" align="left"/> Design and production of the exhibition Unrivaled Unrevealed, Select Treasures of the National Library. Curator: Ido Bruno "Looking at books on display is qualitatively different from reading them. The viewer's eyes are drawn to the form and color, the visual appearance of the book. The book’s “look” tells a story. There are those rare moments when the contents of the book are one with the personal history of the book as an object, as a unique entity, as a cultural artifact blessed with a life of its own. These are the moments we looked for in choosing the small collection on display here." The exhibitions were designed as part of the studio IDBruno. http://iohidesign.com/Books http://iohidesign.com/following/iohidesign.com/Books Mon, 14 Nov 2011 19:55:16 +0000 IOHI design 2304194 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304194/libro comp 2_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="800" height_o="600" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304194/libro comp 2_o.jpg" data-mid="11624407" border="0" align="left"/> Graphic design and production of Ido Bruno's portfolio. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304194/libro comp 1_750.jpg" width="750" height="562" width_o="800" height_o="600" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137851/2304194/libro comp 1_o.jpg" data-mid="11624780" border="0" align="left"/> Graphic design and production of a special annotated facsimile edition of the manuscript for Einstein Exhibition.
