Dear friends,
It’s been such a difficult year for everyone, but our community has rallied together. We’ve found it so heartwarming to see many of our wonderful clients donating furniture and opening up their homes to host the many displaced families from Israel’s north and south. We are blessed to work with so many generous and good-hearted people.
Despite the uncertainty (or maybe because of it), the flow of people looking to build a permanent residence or second home in Israel hasn’t abated. We’re grateful that we’ve managed to stay busy and wanted to take a moment to share some of our recent activities with you.
Praying for more peaceful days ahead and for the safe return home of all hostages,
Rebecca and Ilan
The reincarnation of a historic Zichron Yaakov building
Opportunities like this don’t came along every day. This recent project saw us transform a historic former olive oil press and flour mill, in a building once owned by Baron Rothschild during the founding years of Zichron Yaakov, into the new showroom of Ronis Ceramics.
This unique location also hosted local sculptor Ronit Tesler’s Passover exhibition, receiving a lot of coverage in the Israeli art world. Rebecca was asked to consult on the exhibition layout to ensure that Ronit’s sculptures sat in harmony with the interior design concept.
We’re also very excited that this project will be featured in the upcoming Rosh Hashanah supplement for the Jewish Chronicle, the world’s oldest Jewish newspaper. Look out for the link in our next newsletter!
Designing in paradise
This was a real “pinch me I’m dreaming” project – designing our client’s holiday home on the exotic island of Ko Pha Ngan, Thailand. After nearly a year of long-distance communications with the Thai-based project manager watching the house take shape, it was time to travel to Thailand to visit all the suppliers and design stores Rebecca had researched from Israel.
10 packed days in Bangkok and Ko Pha Ngan were spent finding the perfect items to style this hillside home overlooking the ocean. Intense doesn’t begin to describe it, but this was such a rewarding experience for Rebecca, both professionally and personally.

The Rossetto interview
Rebecca and three other interior designers were recently invited by Rossetto, the Israeli high-end furniture chain, to style a space in their new Netanya showroom using items from their 2024 summer collection.
In the interview, Rebecca discussed her design choices and why she enjoys working with Rossetto.
