Oded: “I think this process achieved it's highest purification level in the design of our "Slims" collection. This
collection was born after a long period of designing objects that induce heaviness around them. We had an
urge to purify matter and feelings into a minimalist experience: our nostalgic memories of industrial objects
designed in centuries past turned into a wire contour bone structure that light passing through it - defines
the memory itself. We dismantled the industrial nostalgia in order to reach its DNA structure, and use it to
construct a new language for a nostalgic future. Our path achieved a contour of a memory, which touched
the heart of many people, and made the "Slims collection" a leading collection adopted by many true design
lovers, and an ongoing success. But the core of our true change by design is our ongoing three some creative
process, always looking for the next material, next challenge, next adventure. This passionate path itself is
the true change achieved by design, and one we are committed to walking for a very long time, way into our
future. We hope many true design lovers will follow and join us in our journey."
