This property was planned by Architect and Interior Designer Inon Ben-David over a period of two years and another full year was dedicated to its construction.
The undeniable effort, time and thought invested in the project had paid off. The 250 sqm, two-level property is located in the Kfar Giladi Kibbutz and enjoys the exquisite view of the surrounding Hula valley and Mount Hermon.
When Golany Architects approached the design of this residence in the Galilee, they took upon themselves the challenge of maximizing the potential of the lot at the edge of a village, overlooking the open wide landscape, adorned by the Sea of Galilee.
The desire was for the residence to embrace and engage with the ancient landscape. Therefore, it was important to maintain an unobstructed continuity between the lot and its surroundings. To determine the exact level of the house, the architects and clients went to the empty lot, where they climbed a ladder to check for the level at which the Sea of Galilee can first be seen. The level of the house was then carefully determined for a minimal rise above ground level to provide far views, while still avoiding any retaining walls or barriers, despite the mountainous terrain.
