The Emperor of Caesarea: a luxurious mansion on the first line to the golf complex

MOTION FACADES as Suppliers

Architect and designer:Itzik Niv
Project Engineer:Yaron Sadeh

The family, a couple plus 3 teenagers, who built a house in a neighborhood in Caesarea about 15 years ago, decided to build a new house on another plot in the community. The decision stemmed from the new needs of the children who grew up and wanted a large and spacious private space of their own. In the process, the couple purchased a plot in a perfect location, with open spaces, where the landscape is open and unique. This is in relation to the old house, which was located in the heart of the neighborhood, surrounded by houses and without a view.

This time they decided they wanted a new house designed in a modern contemporary architectural language, and for this purpose they turned to architect Itzik Niv. While the old house was designed and designed in a unique country style clad in kurkur stone and natural materials.

The house was planned and designed in a modern, clean and minimalist style. Open and full of light and view. Despite the clean design, the use of a lot of wood gave the house a warm, homey and non-alienating atmosphere.

Ground floor - when the spacious entrance door located on the main façade of the house opens, you can see at first glance the endless view reflected through the long vitrine separating the exterior from the interior of the house, at first glance the "inner street" is visible, with a lighted library designed in metal and wood on the left and a patio on the right that connects the three floors and injects natural light into the basement spaces. Further on, a large central space of the kitchen on the left, and the living room and dining table on the right, with a space above them connecting the ground floor with the living room on the first floor of the adolescents.
