house in Harutzim
This is a renovation of a large county house near Tel Aviv, Israel.The old house was dark, and not really connected to the outside. We opened it up to create a split-level living area. In order to make the space look even larger, we stretched the inside of the house to the outside, using the same beautiful grey slate floor tiles both in the house and in the garden. The center of the house is an old carpenter workbench, which we renovated, changed a little, and used as an island for the kitchen. This has a lot of sentimental value, since it used to belong to the grandfather, who had spent all his working life using it! I love it when you can see the personal history of my clients through the houses we create together.
