Description:

The design of this house on a long, narrow and steep lot in Har Adar had to take into account the severe winds that are typical for this neighborhood. The house is designed around two inner courtyards that are private, sheltered and shaded, with large windows facing them. All the public spaces are interconnected with the patios and the rest of the garden to create a mosaic of indoor and outdoor living.

Negotiating the height differences between the house and the street created the opportunity to provide a wide entrance leading up to the central patio.
