SCH House is a project designed by Ollech + Tol. A villa built on three levels, combining floating stone above a glass box and a rooftop pool, overlooking the unique landscape of the Jerusalem hills. This house features several unique elements, including a seven-and-a-half-meter staircase that was dropped as a single unit from the roof directly to the center of the space. In this villa, the rules for using Jerusalem stone on the facade were redefined, while the planners also tackled challenging topography and even fulfilled a small dream for the homeowner at the entrance.

Park House by Paulo Martins
