Reichsparteitagsgelaende Memorial for Jewish Soldiers. Nuremberg, Germany (preliminary proposal)

28/4/2019

0 Comments

 
Although not a very known fact, there was a significant number of Jewish soldiers taking part in the Third Reich army.
The subject itself is a confusing one and the  idea of a memorial to be placed on the Nazi party's former realms seemed to us to be even more conflicting. 
Therefore in this proposal we chose to place the memorial on the lake, disconnected from the party's institutions, in an 'extra-territorial' space,  accessible only by boat.

Israel National Library Competition

Israel National Library Competition


The very concept of devising a physical building to house  the rich written collection of an errant people was a conceptual tour-de-force.
We decided to focus on the very decision of placing the building in Jerusalem and explore the Jerusalem stone as a starting point.
The 'quarry' became the generating image, a reference to the seminal character of the Jewish literary corpus.

We opted for open-ended  architectural language and compositional principles, reflecting the open-endedness of the Jewish tradition.

Competition for the University of Cyprus New Campus

22/1/2019

0 Comments

 
(invitation to second stage of competition, 1994)
​

This proposal was prepared following an invitation to participate in the second stage of the International Competition for the design of the New Campus of the University of Cyprus in Nicosia. The site was  was placed along the 'Greek'-'Turkish' 'border', hinting that the University campus should in some way act as a healing factor in this long political  dispute.
Our proposal envisioned a quadrantal division of the territory, based on existing 'facts on ground': the open fields, the forest, the agricultural plots, and the adjacent village. The proposed campus was placed in the center of the cross, the university dorms located between the village and the main public buildings of the campus.

Tel-Aviv Boulevards Competition (First Prize)

22/1/2019

0 Comments

 
(First Prize, Israel Association of Architects 

​The competition goal was to explore the area of the three main Tel-Aviv Boulevards.

We saw this competition as an opportunity to find a nexus to the unclear and diffuse urban structure of Tel-Aviv.

Our proposal included connecting the three main boulevards enhanced as a main arched spine, its extremities  reaching the sea.

This new combined boulevard would define an 'inner' and an 'outer' city.

Along the boulevards, we allowed buildings to regroup as larger structures, more suitable to a main boulevard
.

The space between buildings, and the wasted 'pilotis' were filled to create new commercial spaces that enhance the street and the urban experience.

Menahemia Masterplan

22/1/2019

0 Comments

 
Menahemia is a historical agricultural village located in the Jordan Valley, crossed by the Jordan River. 
The Masterplan envisioned a sustainable town for a future population of 10.000 inhabitants,  keeping it's agricultural character and natural resources.
The Masterplan included provisions for friendly tourism, small industries related to the agricultural theme, small-scale hotels, a gate for the village, infrastructure. In order to mitigate the summer extreme hot weather conditions, we proposed the creation of natural lakes,  by exposing shallow groundwater.

Holon Light-Rail Train - Urban Impact Study

12/1/2019

0 Comments

 
The insertion of a light-rail line connecting this suburb of Tel-Aviv and the inner city was rightfully seen as an opportunity to re-think the urban structure, role  and form of Holon.

The proposal included allowing high rise along transportation lines (as in the the Curitiba model), emphasizing urban centers and connecting Holon to the sea through main axes.

Mediterranean Syntax in the village of Lotem, Galilee

12/1/2019

0 Comments

 
This private house in the Lotem village of the Galilee was planned in a very favorable site, a southern slope facing a forest and olive groves. 

As the climate in this region is comfortable most of the year, we decided that the house was to be designed around a south-facing outdoor space covered by a pergola. 
The interior main social spaces were put in line with this outdoor space and the view to the facing hills, interlocking the 
interior and exterior areas.

HaTzefira, 20 - Greek Colony, Jerusalem

10/1/2019

0 Comments

 
This proposal for a 34-apartment condominium located in the German Colony of Jerusalem called for an articulated volume that could echo the existing urban texture.   
Elements  of the local architectural language were incorporated in the building: half octagons, cornices and vertical windows.
The irregular plot shape was unified by a broad curve in the front facade.
​The front facade steps back in the upper floors as a way to scale down the building and to create Sukkah-balconies.

15, Negba Street - Greek Colony Neighborhood
Jerusalem

(Built 2015)

This house was planned for two families in the Greek Colony, a Jerusalem neighborhood characterized by old buildings built with  Jerusalem stone. 

The building was designed to fit the traditional Jerusalem architectural character, with a special attention to the stone details. 

Most of the facade was clad using re-used stone, bought from demolished buildings. All the building is new construction, except for the ground floor front facade
 
Total residential area : 700 sqm
