The establishment of Design Museum Holon is a high point in the ongoing process of transforming the city of Holon into an epicenter of culture and education. Over the past decade, the city has introduced a wealth of edification programs, launched cultural festivals, opened new museums and introduced urban art installations, all leading to the enrichment of municipal life.

The primary goals of Design Museum Holon are to inspire and challenge the design community and the general public’s perception of design and the way it affects their lives. (more…)

“Global warming has become an issue that most feel important to address, while some instead feel that destiny is in the hands of a higher being, and skeptics believe our planet has always been breathing and that the conditions we see are a natural occurrence. I have no political agenda, but I do believe that any issue or debate that brings to the table ideas that inspire people to consider the protection of all species and our planet, that encourages them to think twice about waste and how to save energy can only create positive side effects that are good for Earth. The foundation of our company is based upon digitalizing products around us, and by doing so we help to reduce the human footprint on our environment by using less storage, transportation, material, labor etc”
