Lior Vaknin - a short Biography
Lior was fascinated by internal design from an early age, first encountering the subject in building tree houses and temporary enviroments as a kid. As a teenager Lior already experimented with new materials. The subject of design according to concepts inspired by nature sprang in him at that time.
As a child with learning disabilities, Lior spent most of his time outside the normative enviroment and school, and turned his energies to natural and temporary design, as a kind of a "street boy".
Lior eventually did arrive to the academic studies of design, and after spending a short time in an orthodox job working in a design firm, went in an independent way, in order to better express his own unique approach to the subject of design. Lior is now head of "Prototype Designers", based in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Lior recently finished an innovative project of a barber shop in Rehovot, Israel, "The Strand Project". The project started its way by considering the idea of what a hair strand is and what kind of insights it can provide for designing the interior space of the barber shop.
Lior is currently involved in several other projects, including a project of a boarding school for children in risk. Another innovative project is a modular furniture product, "The Polyp", currently in production stages, to be marketed in a few monthes.
