Heart Travel
Tempting Tel Aviv Design blogger and journalist Chedva Kleinhandler, takes us on a fascinating tour where she shares her love and passion for her beloved city, Tel Aviv. Photographer Avishai Finkelstein Writer Chedva Kleinhandler
It’s one of those rare winter days in Tel Aviv
and I’m admiring the grey skies against the hot pink wall in the living room of one of my favorite artists. I chose to start our tour of my favorite Tel Aviv design spots in Samy D’s and Yohai Barak’s apartment because to me, the couple and their abode epitomes everything I love about Tel Aviv; It’s colorful yet moody, artfully designed but full of life, it changes with every hour and every light, almost like it has a heartbeat of its own, and every piece in it has a unique story.
Samy David and Yohai Barak moved to this
apartment not long ago, in a building bursting with artists and designers. They dedicated a studio under the apartment, suited for the bigger scale art that Samy is creating now along with his interior design work. Samy is known for his bold use of color in his pottery work, and so it’s not surprising that every wall in the apartment boasts a different paint color. There are very few places you’ll feel more welcome than here, which fits perfectly with the couple’s love
