We believe in creating an ambiance and an environment that is conducive to maximizing the everyday, intimate moments that...

“It was written in the stars,” that’s what Eyal Shoam tells me when I ask him about how he became involved with Artemano. We are sitting in his office, talking and enjoying the warm tea that he so graciously made a few minutes earlier.  It’s the perfect antidote for this cold February morning.  I’m grateful that Eyal offered to make it and appreciate the kindness of his simple gesture.  A couple of weeks before, when I first met Eyal, I thought him shy.  Now after spending the morning with him, my view has shifted.  Initially he comes off as quiet...
