THE CONCEPT

ARCHITECTURE - GAL MAROM ARCHITECTS

Rooted in the past but with a contemporary twist, Rav Kook Residences embody a deep commit- meant to preserving the architectural, historical, and spiritual aspects of the original site. As a creative architect, observation is central to my design process. I begin each of my projects by observing the surrounding area to get a sense of the context to which the place belongs and to understand the spirit that permeates it. I strive to tap into what the place wants to happen within it so as not to force anything upon it. I planned Rav Kook Residences as a harmonious encounter between past, present, and future within a collection of preserved and new buildings. After studying its historical building elements, including the work of artisans who came to Palestine in the late 1800s and built this site, I set out to create modern architectural details that incorporate elements from the past while offering fresh inspiration for generations to come.
