Partial transcription of the video
“ Creating the Textile In this lesson, we'll start creating the final project. We'll prepare the wood textile for your final piece. Now we have European oak. The length is 105 cm and the width is 40 cm. We'll create a wall panel with a horizontal curve. We'll scale up the crosshatch grid and we'll make 5 cm squares. Since we'll work with a large piece, we need to create a larger grid. Remember, the bigger the grid, the larger the curve radius. Now we are ready to start working. First, we'll do the 90-degree angle. Same as before, we need to create a line all the way. I did the line here, no...”

Tesler + Mendelovitch
A course by Tesler + Mendelovitch
Orli Tesler and Itamar Mendelovitch are the founders of Israel-based studio Tesler + Mendelovitch. They met while studying textile design at the Shenkar University of Engineering and Design. From the outset, they had opposing design ideologies: Itamar works methodically and precisely, while Orli is more impulsive, but they soon realized that the two approaches complemented each other and began collaborating on projects. After graduating, they opened their own studio with the aim of transforming known materials into new forms.
Their first product launch was the diamond wood coffee table and sitting stool, but they’ve since gone on to create a whole range of unique products including their best-selling wooden clutch. Through their studio, Orli and Itamar collaborate with interior designers and architects around the world to create site-specific installations, special editions, and specialist commissions. They also share their designs with over 10K followers on Instagram.
