Queen of the Desert by Tzvia Kazayoff

Queen of the Desert is a project designed by Tzvia Kazayoff. What’s beautiful about renovation is the ability to take a disproportionate project; an old 3-bedroom apartment, 130 sqm with a 124 sqm balcony, and transform it into an amazing penthouse sized at 195 sqm with a proportional balcony of 60 sqm. See what interior designer Tzvia Kazayoff did for a family, a couple plus three children, in Be’er Sheva, Israel. The renovation, including city approvals, took months, but the result is more than worth it. Photography by Amit Gosher.

NIPON by Social Arquitectos

Leave a reply

NIPON is a project designed by Social Arquitectos. A plot with complex characteristics and a vacation housing program with nods to hotels define this architectural work. Views versus orientation, function, and morphology strongly challenge this project from its inception. Uses that are activated independently, yet still part of a whole. The house follows the movement of the terrain, opening in a fan shape towards the lagoons and allowing, through large north-facing windows, the provision of light to living areas and circulation spaces.

SABATER HOUSE by Fran Silvestre Arquitectos

Leave a reply

The project designed by Fran Silvestre Arquitectos arises from its implementation in the environment. The building unfolds through a very clear geometry, deviating from the concept of compact architecture. This strategy, combined with the slim proportion of the construction, allows for an increased perimeter of the dwelling’s contact with the exterior, creating a system of courtyards that seems limitless.

A 166 sqm Apartment by Studio Bar Gil Kon

Leave a reply

What happens when the staircase is located in the center of the apartment?
A general renovation of an existing apartment in central Tel Aviv for a couple with three young children. The apartment designed by Studio Bar Gil Kon occupies an entire floor in a preserved building, merged from two apartments into one. Consequently, it was initially constructed and arranged in a way that didn’t allow for family expansion or changes. The building’s staircase is positioned in the center, surrounded by the apartment on all sides. Due to alterations in the apartment’s layout, the building’s windows were also adjusted internally using gypsum cladding for the new design without affecting the building’s façade.
