From dreams to production.

Amit Naor is an industrial designer originally from Nordia, now based in Tel Aviv. He founded his independent studio in 2020, pursuing a deep passion for design — taking innovative ideas, sanding them into cohesive concepts, and developing them all the way through production to the end user.

User experience is the foundation of the work — from the simplicity of operation, through ergonomics, to the comfort of the user. The studio takes deep consideration of cultural connections, technology and processes, and strives for added value in every concept. Work focuses on the connection between man and nature, and revolves around travel gear and the materials nature has to offer.

Since 2022 Amit has worked with SOURCE — currently as Head of Quality & Innovation. He has previously designed for MiniMeis in Norway. Alongside the studio practice runs a quieter line — Earthen Strings — ceramic string instruments made by hand on commission. Visit the studio →
