israeli designer tal gur's 'daily chair' on display at the promisedesign exhibition at milan design week 2011 is
made from discarded newspapers that have been formed with paper-mâché over a metal frame.
the design demonstrates how contemporary designers from the nation have a history of mixing handcraft
and production techniques.
the 2011 edition of promisedesign represents a broader reaching perspective of israeli designers
since its inception in 2005, with the intention to address a deeper more complete understanding of
israeli design in the international scene.
