Well folks, my favourite time of year is almost upon us… a
snuggly, cuddly, cosy winter! With that in mind, today I’d like to introduce
you to a delightful design duo from Tel Aviv, Israel – Maayan and Anat from Mezoome Designs. I’m particularly enamoured
with their winter sleeping bags (also great for transitioning into autumn) and
this week I had the chance to try one out for myself…
If there’s one thing that I learnt from this
week’s review, it’s that very few things in this world are more adorable than
an itty bitty baby bundle wrapped up in a cosy cocoon of Egyptian cotton. I had
so much fun cuddling Miss Megan (5 months) in the Mezoome Sleeping Bag that I made
three rounds of coffee and used some pre-Easter caramello eggs to entice her
mummy to stay a little bit longer!
Here’s the low down on the design… It’s made
from eco-friendly 100% Egyptian cotton and is available in four colours (red,
brown, light blue and grey). I was especially smitten with the fabulously fun
lining which features a selection of woodland creatures. I also love the
easy-in-and-out wrap style which has a shape like a gingerbread man and a handy
velcro closure. Megan’s mum found it useful for day sleeps and also used it in
the car. It’s available for $44USD (with free worldwide shipping)… and did I
mention that it has little bear ears on the hood? So sweet!
The verdict… Fun, modern styling to
keep your little bug snug.
Mezoome Designs is
a creative project by Anat Biala (mum of two boys, 5 y.o. Jonathan and 1.5 y.o.
Yoav) and Maayan G. Shpigel (mum of two girls, 4 y.o. Alona and 1.9 y.o.
Michaella). Anat and Maayan met at their children’s kindergarten and one day
while they were hanging out at the playground they discovered that they both
shared a love for graphics and design.
In 2008, Anat and Maayan they decided to join
forces to launch Mezoome and have been happily designing together ever since.
Their business name means “who’s who” in Hebrew, which they thought was cute
and apt name for their collaboration.
Anat and Maayan draw their inspiration from
their children and the world that surrounds them. They also love the
Scandinavian design aesthetic, which is evident in their current collection.
Anat and Maayan explain, “We always start our
design process around our four main characters and brain storm the old
fashioned way with a pen and paper. After that we research different colours
and textures according to the season and collection. We turn to our favourite
design websites for inspiration as well as design books and all the things
around us.”
