Israeli Buildings : Architecture
Architectural Development in Israel, Middle East
Buildings in IsraelWe've selected what we feel are the key examples of Israeli Buildings. We aim to include buildings that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.We cover completed buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across Israel. The focus is on contemporary Israeli buildings but information on traditional Israel buildings is also welcome. We have 2 pages of Israel Architecture selections with links to hundreds of individual project pages. Israeli Architecture : news + key projects Israeli Buildings : A-Z (this page) Israel BuildingsMajor Israeli Building Designs - recent additions to this page, arranged chronologically:Yad Va'Shem Holocaust Museum, Jerusalem - new photos Design: Safdie Architects  photograph © Adrian Welch Yad Va'Shem Holocaust Museum - 13 May 2013 The rebuilding of the Yad Va'Shem Holocaust Museum includes a new visitors’ center (Mevoah), a new history museum replacing the existing museum constructed in 1953, a Hall of Names, a synagogue, galleries for Holocaust art, an exhibitions pavilion and a learning and visual center. In addition, new underground parking and facilities for tour buses are located adjacent to a new entrance piazza. The overall program quadruples the permanent exhibition space. Be'er Sheva Buildings, southern Israel - architecture review by e-architect editor Adrian Welch  photograph © Adrian Welch Be'er Sheva Buildings - 13 May 2013 Photos + information on low-rise housing, a megastructure and a university campus all located in the arid landscape of the Negev Desert. Museum + Archive - Jabotinsky Center Chyutin Architects  image from architects Jabotinsky Center, Ramat-Gan The building will be erected on a triangular plot with roads on either side of it and its apex pointing to an intersection. The base of the triangle faces a public space to be shared by two other public buildings whose function has as yet not been decided. The building is designed as a spearhead pointing towards the intersection, from which it rises towards the urban expanse, bursting out of the depths of the ground. The volume design projects power and momentum as well as an ascetic simplicity devoid of ornamentation. The museum has three levels. Gassul House, Tivon, north Israel SO architecture  picture from architect Gassul House - near Haifa The geometry and openings in this building were created while mainly aiming the beautiful landscape of the Carmel Mountain and the will to preserves the existing trees. The north elevation that faces the landscape is largely opened to the view. The privacy of the inhabitant vis-à-vis the street is preserved due to the cantilevered porch that is 2 m higher than the street. The Kitchen is located close to the entrance and serves easily the dinning lot and the living space. Haifa Court House Building, north Israel Chyutin Architects  photograph from architect Haifa Court Building Haifa is the main northern city of Israel, situated on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea, on the slopes of Mount Carmel. The building site is located at Haifa’s downtown area, between two roads that define its boundary. The lower avenue serves as a main city thoroughfare, linking the city of Haifa to the northern part of Israel. The topographical situation is unique as the topographical soaring of Mount Carmel begins at the site’s longitude parallel. As a result, the building’s positioning is “double faced,” i.e., one side facing the mountain and the other facing the sea. The structure has two public entrances. Peace Peres House, Jaffa, central Israel Massimiliano & Doriana Fuksas Architects  image : Archivio Fuksas Peace Peres House Jaffa This building is a parallelepiped. Obtained by irregularly shaped glass and concrete layers standing on a monolithic base: at one end of the building is the entrance to the car park, at the other the pedestrians entrance. At this point the basement becomes a large plaza, an empty space dissected lengthwise by two symmetrical ramps leading inside. This dark and low-ceilinged area leads to the inside of the well of light that is open for the whole height of the building, where the reception area is situated. From here the alternating light and dark layers are visible; the former, in glass, lit from the outside and the latter, in concrete mixed with other materials and local earth.
