Tel Aviv is set to establish itself as a cultural and creative hub with the launch of the TAAD Design Fair, a groundbreaking event celebrating design as an expression of everyday wonder.
Founded in 2024 by Maria Nasimov, a distinguished art historian, curator, and advisor, TAAD is redefining the role of design in our daily lives and strengthening the connection between Israel and the global design community.
Bridging Local and Global Creativity
TAAD was born out of a growing demand in Israel for unique, high-quality, and immediately available design pieces. By creating links between local talent, art collectors, galleries, and international design connoisseurs, TAAD aims to break down barriers and place Tel Aviv at the forefront of the contemporary design scene. The fair is set to establish uncompromising standards in taste and quality, positioning Tel Aviv as a cultural epicenter in the global creative landscape.
"Everyday Wonder": A Celebration of Inspired Living
TAAD’s inaugural fair is themed "Everyday Wonder", focusing on objects that elevate daily rituals and routines into moments of artistic inspiration. The exhibition is curated by Maria Cristina Didero, one of the world’s leading design curators, ensuring a showcase of exceptional creativity and craftsmanship.
Through this event, TAAD aspires to weave design into the fabric of everyday life, proving that beauty and functionality can coexist harmoniously. The fair is not just an exhibition—it is a symbol of innovation, creativity, and cultural evolution in Tel Aviv.
TAAD Design Fair promises to be a transformative experience, redefining the intersection of design, art, and everyday living.
