needs and
users' state of mind
Omri Revesz was born and raised in Tel Aviv. In 2005 after hismilitary service hemoved

architecture and technology, in collaboration with international companies.
Omri. son of Israeli architect Dany Revesz, is currently teaching industrial design at
IUAV University, investigating new materials and innovative technologies.
“My design process begins with collecting data, anticipating patterns of behavior,
needs, and theuser's stateofmind. Thisallowsus to identify interestingpossibilitiesand
opportunities for development. I believe that
similarly to the revolution we experienced in
the digital world, where content consumers
become content generators, one should
create open solutions that invite the user to
get involved, and contribute from his own
experience".
The studio is currently working on interior
design and custom bespoke furniture for
the Contemporary Art Center in Venice,
which includes a public floor of 1,000 sqm.,
galleries, shop, bar, restaurant, and a top
floor of 500 sqm., including living and
office spaces. The center will open in May
as part of the Venice Art Biennale. Parallel
to this, the studio is currently working on
a glass collection for Salviati, an historical
