Oasis Living

This house, designed in the spirit of modernist architecture, creates an oasis of peace and tranquility amidst the stunning desert landscape of Israel. The structure is divided into two levels, each engaging in a unique dialogue with its surrounding environment.

The entrance is located on the lower level, where the children's and family rooms are situated. The front façade, which faces the street, is adorned with louvers designed to create a buffer between the private interior spaces and the street, offering an intimate outdoor area that filters street noise and provides privacy.  The louver system serves not only as a privacy screen but also as a design element that connects the interior with the exterior, maintaining a sense of seclusion and intimacy.

As one enters the house, there is a glimpse of the upper level, which is completely open to the breathtaking desert view. This provides an immediate hint of the home's main feature — the endless panoramic view of the pristine landscape. The transition between the levels is through a short staircase, which serves as a symbolic ascent to the highlight of the house — the vast, open view from the living space, revealing the timeless beauty of the surrounding desert.

The central space of the house, located on the upper level, naturally connects to its surrounding environment through its minimalist and coherent design, allowing the focus to remain entirely on the stunning landscape. This central area is divided into an interior living space and a covered outdoor area, which can be read as a single architectural unit. This design enables a seamless flow between the indoors and outdoors while providing comfortable conditions even in the hot desert climate.

The master suite is situated adjacent to the central space, with full exposure to a side façade of the house. This design provides a clear separation between the outdoor spaces, allowing distinct uses of the exterior areas and enhancing privacy and flexibility in outdoor living.

The homeowner is an enthusiast swimmer, and as such, a narrow and elongated swimming pool was designed to extend the elegant, elongated lines of the architectural layout. The pool is visible from the central living space, creating a serene and cohesive scene that blends the elements of desert and water into a calming, unified composition.
