Green | house | green

In our first conversations with the clients, we discussed the garden no less than the house itself. The clients even purchased additional land from the neighboring plot in order to create a larger garden. It was clear from the beginning that the garden would play a central role in the design of the house, yet even after the site was enlarged, its scale still felt insufficient.

So we kept thinking. And then it became clear: if there was not enough space for one large garden, then the house should have two.

On one side of the house, we designed a vertical garden—high and narrow—rising from the basement up toward the sky. On the other side, we created the main garden, horizontal and more conventional. The walls separating the house from the gardens were designed as transparent surfaces, and a series of floating boxes were added above the vertical garden, inviting the residents to step out into it.

Now we are simply waiting for all the green to grow.

The strong concrete structure stands at the center of a soft and pleasant “green sandwich” formed by the two gardens.

כבר בשיחות הראשונות עם הלקוחות היה ברור שהגינה חשובה לא פחות מהבית. הם אף רכשו שטח נוסף מהמגרש הסמוך, אך גם לאחר ההרחבה התחושה הייתה שאין די מקום לגינה הגדולה שרצו.

הפתרון היה ליצור שתי גינות: גינה אנכית, גבוהה וצרה, העולה מהמרתף אל השמיים, ולצדה גינה אופקית ורחבה יותר. קירות שקופים מחברים בין הבית לשתי הגינות, וקופסאות מרחפות מעל הגינה האנכית מאפשרות לצאת אליה מתוך החללים הפנימיים.

כך ניצב מבנה הבטון החזק במרכזו של "סנדוויץ' ירוק" רך ונעים, שרק ילך ויתמלא בצמחייה עם הזמן.
