The project brings together many various units of the Israel Electric Corporation –scattered throughout different locations in central Israel – into one large and economical complex. The new construction saves costs, eliminate redundancies and redirect units, which were located on costly properties.

The Electric Corporation’s flagship project is designed to incorporate the corporation’s most valuable division and units of the central and southern districts. It includes a plethora of functions such as: offices, operations, training, laboratories, logistics, workshops, a Data Center, control rooms and welfare facilities.

The site’s close proximity to main traffic routes and future train station, taken together with the functionality of electricity generation, led the design to express dynamism and flowing movement, which corresponds with the plot’s shape and the language it creates. The design emphasizes the buildings appearance both during the day and at night, and the fact that it is observed mostly from vehicles rather than by pedestrians.

The project includes a building with three wings and a basement floor, which includes a data center, as well as a separate building housing the site’s workshop.

The main building is composed of two arching segments on different levels, which are placed one after the other and populate most of the project’s office spaces. These segments are built over two lower orthogonal wings, which act as the project’s foundations and make optimal use of the plot’s attributes.

Dividing the building into wings answered the need for separation between office and operational spaces and helped create an optimal spatial alignment, which is easily worked out and understood. The lower west wing includes welfare facilities, auditorium, gym, synagogue and events hall. The lower east wing houses the operational area and includes laboratories and the Electric Corporation’s central logistics warehouse.

The project also includes a major data center and control rooms.

The eastern site’s logistical nature necessitated the separation of movement for different types of vehicles as well as the allocation of large parking areas, both for private, operational and heavy vehicles. These parking lots were located in areas that are not intended for construction – under power lines located on the site.

The use of natural lighting and proper airing in all office spaces, as well as certain sustainable construction elements, were implemented in order to create a pleasant, supportive and encouraging work environment.

Future-forward thinking guided the design of the main building, allowing maximal flexibility for the implementation of any future changes while emphasizing the most optimal gross/net ratios.

A national outline plan that encompasses all municipalities within the Tel Aviv and Central Metropolitan Area, intended to serve as a complementary plan to the metro plans.

To provide municipalities with tools to minimize the impact of metro lines (tracks and stations) on plots designated for metro-related purposes.

The first phase of the work included an analysis of typical situations and interfaces between the future train stations and tracks and the surrounding urban fabric, as well as an investigation of their impact on adjacent plots and buildings.

Subsequently, the conclusions were implemented, and principles and guidelines were established for construction near the main railway corridors, aligning with the current plan (building lines, coverage, density, and number of floors).

An urban renewal site at the heart of Ramat Gan, which includes the evacuation of 30 housing units spread over 3 buildings, and construction of one residential tower comprising approximately 90 housing units.

The vision for this project is to provide the city with a premium location and gathering point on one of its main traffic axes, and at the same time provide excellent living conditions for its residents including – high quality apartments that are well-aired and lighted.

The design of the tower draws its inspiration from its unique location at the crossroads of Haroe and Habanim streets. The irregular shape of the plot transformed the project’s main challenge into its main design concept – a conch-shaped design plan, fitted to the plot’s layout, converging gradually into an elliptical contour forming along the structure’s height.

The Haroe tower is located on a central and significant axis in the city of Ramat Gan. A thorough analysis of the environment and future development plans, together with appearance and visual analyses conducted from different locations across town, all lead to the conclusion that a tower on the intersection between the two streets will integrate well with the proposed future construction layout for Haroe street. From all of the design alternatives prepared, the final choice was that of a 20-story residential tower, with commercial spaces located in the ground floors, which will also include public spaces. The chosen design scheme would fit best with the outline and layout of Haroe street.

A pleasant urban “pause” was planned at the intersection between the two streets; a small Piazza, which has an old tree planted in its center. This modest square could also accommodate a neighborhood cafe in the future.

As part of the regional authority’s renewal and redevelopment plans for the town’s center, it decided to leverage a private contractor’s evacuation/construction plan and expand its scope to encompass all of the town’s central areas.

An urban redevelopment site spread across approximately 5 hectares, at the center of the town Qiryat Ekron.

The evacuation of about 100 existing housing units and commercial areas for the construction of combined living and commercial buildings. The project will expand the current site, adding additional constructed areas and layers, and transforming it into the beating heart of the town.

The project will integrate with the green axis outlined in the town’s master plan, and include a large urban square delineated by public buildings and future town hall.

The different functionalities of this new site are attained by planning about 650 new housing units  that together with office and commercial spaces clearly redefine the boundaries of both main axes – Herzl and Sharet – while preserving and using the ancient trees located on site.

Preparation of a comprehensive master plan to optimally address the evolving needs of Israel’s National Sports Institute through the year 2040. As part of the plan, special attention is given to the integration of the new National Center for Elite Sports, which is expected to be established on-site in the coming years.

Wingate Institute is a diamond in the rough waiting to be polished. The site holds every advantage imaginable – uninterrupted Mediterranean views, expansive open spaces, nature reserves adjoining walking trails, excellent accessibility to major transportation routes and metropolitan areas, historical buildings slated for preservation, unique vegetation habitats, and even an archaeological site.

The new master plan capitalizes on these diverse strengths, shaping a renewed environment for Israel’s elite athletes. It defines several new zones, each with a distinct identity, while reinforcing the site’s existing qualities across a range of scales.

The primary area within the campus has been designated for elite sports. This zone stretches from south to north, anchored by a central boulevard that links the older facilities with the new developments and provides easy access to wellness and service buildings.

The new boulevard includes an Olympic-standard running track, bike lanes, and cafés with seating areas. Adjacent to the boulevard, space has been allocated for startup companies in the sports tech sector, alongside a planned five-star hotel to accommodate international athlete delegations.

At the heart of the complex lies the central plaza – a pedestrian-only space preserving the existing shade trees. Around it, lawns will be rehabilitated, nature reserves will be integrated into the landscape, and the archaeological site and heritage buildings will be developed as key public assets.

A major challenge addressed in the plan was reorienting the main entrance to the campus — from its current location in the north to a new southern entry point. This shift significantly influenced the spatial organization and dictated a reimagining of what was previously considered the site’s “backyard”.

The placement of the new multipurpose building presented another key design challenge. The planned expansion of the Coastal Highway (Route 2), which will encroach on part of Wingate’s northern edge, necessitated relocating the main entrance to the south. A detailed analysis of the institute’s needs revealed that this constraint offered a unique opportunity: to finally create a proper gateway worthy of a national sports center.

The new entrance, accessible via a future interchange above the highway, will feature a wide, tree-lined promenade, bike paths, and pedestrian walkways connecting directly to the adjacent nature reserves.

Facing this new gateway will stand the National Sports Center building – a defining landmark and symbolic entrance to the renewed Wingate Institute.

A master plan for the development of new residential neighborhoods in the northern Jerusalem/Atarot area.

To design a residential neighborhood where residents can enjoy the natural qualities of the area, seamlessly integrating into the mountainous landscape and unique topography.

Following a thorough analysis of the site’s many constraints and layered limitations, an urban boulevard was defined to serve as the main artery feeding the residential neighborhoods. Land use designations, road hierarchy, building heights, and placement were all determined to create distinctive urban spaces that are rooted in the natural landscape prior to the neighborhood’s construction.

Expansion of the existing industrial park by approximately 200 hectares.

Implementation of a new concept for industrial park planning:
On one hand, a technological-industrial park that promotes environmental innovation and develops systems to enhance energy independence.
On the other hand, an educational-industrial park that serves as a knowledge hub, integrating manufacturing activities with educational and enrichment programs for both employees and the community.

The industrial park is envisioned as a regional living space that combines education, welfare, research, science, tourism, and public services.

The new park will accommodate up to 120 factories and approximately 10,000 new employees.
Noam Industrial Park is intended to serve as a pilot model for the development of similar parks across the country.

The planning was based on a strategic plan that identified key ideas and the needs of stakeholders in the area. After defining the concept and analyzing the current situation, the following core planning principles were established:

Creating points of interest within the new fabric: a visitor center, development of an existing archaeological site, a new exhibition space, an olive grove, and an olive press.

Integration of the adjacent forest into the park’s layout.

Ensuring continuity with existing urban axes and infrastructure.

Enhancing connectivity between the park and the city through pedestrian paths, bicycle lanes, and public transportation.

Designating public open spaces for science gardens, orchards, and industrial art installations.

Zoning for public buildings, a guesthouse, and commercial areas to optimally serve both visitors and employees.

Design guidelines for the interface between factories and the street, including exposing production processes to pedestrians (e.g., establishing zero setback lines to the street, display windows).

Flexible plot design by enlarging the basic module to allow for multiple configurations to meet evolving needs.

Synergy between factories by locating facilities that can support each other’s production processes, including waste reuse.

The plan aims to establish a clear planning framework and urban design guidelines for the new residential neighborhoods planned to the east of the Kiryat HaHagana neighborhood. Initially focused on Area A, the scope of work was later expanded to include an additional site – Area B, known as the Triangle Complex.

Area A – Planning a new residential neighborhood that also includes public buildings and is directly adjacent to Kiryat HaHagana. The main challenge lies in designing a new urban fabric that borders the city’s existing peripheral neighborhoods while integrating harmoniously into the urban landscape and creating optimal connectivity with the surrounding areas.

Area B – Planning a new urban business center in the eastern part of Rehovot, which will also include residential, public, and commercial uses as part of Outline Plan 3003 (TAMA 3003). The plan places particular emphasis on developing the facades along Menachem Begin Road, which is expected to become the main axis of East Rehovot as the surrounding neighborhoods are developed.

Area A
The planning focused on defining preferred street cross-sections, the character of paths and courtyards, with special emphasis on building heights and orientations. The goal was to harmonize the new development with the existing urban edges on the west, east, and north, in accordance with the detailed master plan. The placement of buildings was carefully designed to form pleasant internal courtyards for neighborhood residents. The area was divided into sub-zones, with a guiding principle that no fences or barriers would be erected between plots belonging to the same complex. This approach creates wide, continuous communal spaces within the neighborhood.

Area B – The Triangle Complex
Planning in this zone involved identifying key urban focal points and preferred street cross-sections, which led to defining the desired building facade and placement. A central aim was to establish clear street edges along Menachem Begin Road and other key streets in the complex, as well as to shape the visual identity of the site as seen from the adjacent intercity highway (Route 40, Rehovot–Ramla). As part of shaping the central plaza within the complex, detailed planning guidelines were established. These included ensuring pedestrian accessibility, setting back upper floors to improve scale and light, creating special pedestrian passages between buildings, and defining areas for taller buildings to emphasize urban focal points.

To establish a prominent and significant commercial center in the Moreshet neighborhood of Modi’in, situated along one of the city’s main arteries.

The center aims to serve the neighborhood’s retail and leisure needs while providing exclusive employment opportunity for its residents

An open center for business, leisure, and recreation, strategically located at the gateway to the Moreshet neighborhood.

The complex offers a rich mix of shops and office spaces, with two commercial floors surrounding a public urban plaza that opens toward the street, and six office floors overlooking the nearby Barfiliya Nature Reserve.

The design takes advantage of the site’s topography to create a continuous commercial façade along the street, ensuring a pleasant and accessible pedestrian experience.

A partial commercial floor is planned at the Yehuda HaMaccabi level, with an urban plaza at the Ariel Sharon Street level.

The western elevation was designed as a quiet façade, responding sensitively to the adjacent residential buildings.

The refinery was established in 1938 following treaties that were signed in the 30’s between Mandatory Palestine and the Anglo-Iranian company Ltd.

According to these treaties, the company would receive a concession for 70 years to transport, store and distill petroleum.

In 2003, at the end of the concession period, the national planning authorities instructed on the preparation of a detailed statutory plan for the complex. The new plan is consistent with the guidelines of the national master plan of the south of Haifa Bay and the regional master plan for the Haifa District. Both master plans instruct that the refineries will remain in place and the purpose of the complex will comply with industry requirements.

In light of the complexity of the master plan, and its many ramifications, leading consulting firms in the country, especially in the field of health and the environment were involved in the preparation of the master plan, led by our office.

In a very long process, over the course of nearly eight years, the consultants’ recommendations and requirements of various authorities have been integrated into the plan documents. The purpose of these recommendations is to significantly reduce the environmental impacts of such industries and ensure a complex which is state-of-the-art, modern, controlled and safe.

The ORL area is characterized by extensive and unique activities and its operating companies are engaged in oil refining and other petrochemical processes.

This industry manufactures essential and important products for the economy, such as fuel for cars and airplanes, plastic packaging, toys, bedding and textiles, lanterns, oil and candles.
