The Need
The outdated design and the building’s generally poor state necessitated an overall renovation.
The Vision
The project was initiated as part of the area’s wider urban rejuvenation program, and focuses on updating and upgrading the existing structure, guided by National Outline Plan (TAMA) 38/1. In addition, the building will be redesigned using elements that are characteristic of the White City (Tel-Aviv) but with a modern, contemporary twist.
The Design
A National Outline Plan 38 project for a four entrance terraced apartment building that was planned in the late 1960’s. The renovation includes strengthening the building against earthquakes, construction of 2.5 additional floors, adding new apartments on the ground floor and constructing elevators in order to service each entrance. New rooms and balconies are added to all existing apartments. The facade and landscaping of the building are also substantially upgraded and incorporate the use of modern construction materials and techniques.
