This is the new home designed by Boaz Snir of a couple in their 40s with three children, located in one of the Sharon region cities in Israel. The family returned to Israel after years of living in London, the capital of Britain. Architect Boaz Snir, whose office was responsible for the impressive architectural planning and interior design, shares the construction process that transformed the old house into a living environment heavily influenced by English design, adapted to the Mediterranean climate and environment, and precisely tailored to the family’s lifestyle.

In the past year, the country has experienced many upheavals and obstacles – so much so that we’ve already forgotten that not long ago, we all experienced a completely different international crisis that greatly changed the face of the world. At the height of the COVID-19 period, the old house located in the heart of a pastoral and sought-after neighborhood in a central city in the Sharon region was purchased by the couple who were living with their family in Britain at the time. “The purchase process was carried out in a special way that suits the complex time, and in retrospect, it’s hard to know if the new owners would have bought the house in a normal period,” says architect Boaz Snir, who planned and designed their new home.
