Store Review: 1 Br. (one bedroom) in Jaffa

by Shira Abel Shvo on January 15, 2010

I could have parked closer to the souk in Jaffa – but I saw this store and I had to stop. Wow. Wow. Wow. One bedroom is one of my favorite stores now. The owner has such good taste and combines everything in such a wonderful, fresh way. It’s a feast for the eyes and imagination.

It’s not just the items in the store that are wonderful, but the design of the store itself.

Such as the wallpaper woman behind the checkout counter.

The store features everything from home accessories to furniture to clothes. I fell in love with this kitchen counter with the French country style sink and tile counter top. This is exactly what I want for my next kitchen, whenever that is.

I love that the bed is made with a simple quilted coverlet, but made luxurious with embroidered cushions. Every space on the wall is used – be it for wire shelving that holds kitchen textiles and dishes, tchochkes or pictures. However, the space doesn’t feel cluttered because the floor is relatively empty.

Instead there are vignettes of spaces, like this industrial table and mesh wire chair.

Shockingly, she even makes a chandelier of twigs look good.

Industrial designed softened by classic pieces and strong doses of color. One bedroom is a must see in Jaffa.

Oh that’s a good question – ok, go to Jaffa on the side of the clock tower. Go up that road till you get passed the Catholic school and then at the place you can turn left to go back to the souk – turn – it’s on that street very close to the back of the souk.

יופי של מקום…..
הנני אמנית ,אוהבת את מה שראיתי -נשמה בכל פינה
בעבר עסקתי בתחומי עיצוב והפקות אירועים,וכן שנים רבות בצביעות אמנותיות(קירות, חפצים ורהיטים)
מבינה שאתם מחפשים עובדים למקום-
אשמח מאד שתיצרו עימי קשר בקשר למישרה על מנת שנבדוק את שיתוף הפעולה ביננו.
תודה ויום טוב ענת
