I discovered this really interesting packaging concept that allows for a soda can to be resealed called Soda-Seal. The concept was invented by Johan de Broyer of Ukraine and co-inventor, Robert Davis of Davis Advertising.

What do you get when you combine traditional Middle Eastern textile craft with modernist design classics? Very cool one-of-a-kind furniture that you can't help but fall in love with from Bokja. Bokja is a Beirut-based design studio founded by Hoda Baroudi and Maria Hibri with the goal to combine the handicraft of local skilled artisans with the sleek lines of modernist furniture.
