The Cubes House - a new and different concept in modern architecture . The function of the project are built separately in order to make each unit independent and still connected to the main cube .
3 small cubes : children rooms are connected to the main bigger cube by a transparent corridor surrounded by water element and faces the huge swimming pool of the house.
The Villa is located in a quiet suburb called Ramot Hashavim which is near Raanana and Ramat Ha Sharon (Israel). This area is full of history and was in fact the first agricultural community to be founded in Israel by German immigrants in 1933 who set up a moshav of small farms close to the city. It is now one of the trendiest areas to invest and has become a sought after location for spectacular private and discrete homes.
The Villa was designed by leading Argentinian architect Nestor Sandbank to create a unique solution to build a stylish family house that offers privacy for the children of the family who each have their own ‘pods’ within the house, and intimacy for the parents who enjoy their master bedroom overlooking the pool and grounds.
Individual cubes provide micro-dwelling units for each person complete with a private living room, bedroom, bathroom plus the master suite with dressing room and his and hers bathroom and view over the swimming pool. There is also a maids room plus utility area for the services. The villa also boasts a private cinema, a games room with snooker and table tennis, Italian designed kitchen by Armani Casa and is a fully ‘smart’ home.
The home is also almost entirely automated, contrasting with the natural green yard containing organic orange, grapefruit, avocado and lemon trees. The interior of the home is marked by a plethora of elegant textures and surfaces surrounded by large KELLER minimal windows® glass panes which can be completely closed off at the touch of a button. Warm hardwood floors compliment pristine white walls and polished concrete stairwell.
This property is a one off and makes a superb family home in Israel.
