HOUSE B
Location - Nes-Ziona
Site Area - 250 m²
Built Area - 190 m²
Inspired by the surrounding suburban landscape, House B both aligns with and distinguishes itself from neighboring homes. From different angles, its form, volume, and materials appear to transform, offering a constantly shifting visual experience. The minimalist front façade, facing the street, imparts a sense of solidity and weight—an impression that softens as one approaches the entrance along the side façade.
Designed for a young family in central Israel, this single-family residence combines openness and intimacy in a harmonious layout. The ground floor features an open-plan design, integrating the kitchen, dining, and living areas with direct access to a cozy garden through large sliding glass doors. On the first floor, private bedrooms and service spaces offer a comfortable retreat, connected to the main level by a striking concrete staircase encased in a laser-cut metal Mashrabiya.
Above the staircase, a skylight filters light and air from the roof, allowing both to flow through the shared spaces on each floor. This skylight also casts an ever-changing display of textures and silhouettes on the staircase wall, creating a captivating play of light and shadow throughout the day.
