A.B.S. Objects is a Tel Aviv-based ceramic design studio dedicated to exploring and shaping a contemporary Israeli design language. In recent years, the studio has focused on visual elements deeply rooted in local culture – the Hebrew language, architectural heritage, and symbols from Israel’s built and graphic environment.
The work draws inspiration from architectural forms, design styles, Hebrew typography, and familiar visual motifs that form a complex and layered mosaic of Israeli identity. Among the references are ancient structures, eclectic facades, water towers, and iconic landmarks such as the Shrine of the Book at the Israel Museum.
