HOUSE IN GARDEN

| Location: Kfar Shmaryahu, Israel | Category: New built - Private home | Size: 800SQM | Status: Completed 2001

This rather long 1,500 square meter plot, offered a unique opportunity in terms of both landscaping and the definitions of mass. We became pre-occupation with maintaining the visual continuity of the gardens and maximizing the elevated position of the plot. Although the majority of the house is upon two floors, we chose to view the living room and study as a form of air-conditioned pergola from which both the front and back gardens may be viewed. The elongated reflective pool further re-enforces the linearity of the plot and the play of levels between the street entrance and the house itself. Cast in fair-faced concrete using standard planks for the shuttering, the building itself offers a particular approach to the notions of the "window" and the "door". All the glass windows of the home are transparent walls that are fixed and serve as points of both transparency and reflection. The tall wooden doors serve as openings for ventilation and as exit points to the gardens and terraces. Visibility and accessibility serve as counterpoints of the relationships between external and internal spaces, between the observation of Nature and the act of stepping beyond the threshold.
