speciale israele (2)

in a time of what seems to be ever-increasing religious and political conflict, bartlett students akarachai padlom, eleftherios sergios, and nasser alamadi instead chose to focus on collaboration between religions in their thesis project entitled “faith estates,” which outlines a new method of mass religious tourism. in an area around the dead sea characterized by disputed boundaries and conflicting ownership claims, the group aims to reimagine the relationship between the world’s three monotheistic religions, but also to rethink the relationship between religion, tourism, and the landscape. the design consists of large-scale excavation sites which form tourist resorts along a pilgrimage route with the goal of forming a mutually beneficial relationship

architecture

american architect richard meier has finished work on his first project in israel, a residential tower covered in a "veil" of white louvres that ensure the building is in keeping with its bauhaus-era neighbours in tel aviv's white city

recognized as a unesco world heritage site, tel aviv's “white city” contains 4,000 international style buildings, many of which were built in the 1930s and 1940s. to accommodate the influx of jewish immigrants fleeing europe, german bauhaus-trained architects integrated the modern style's affordable and functional building techniques with curved lines and a color well-suited for the mediterranean climate to create a habitable city by the sea
