Contemporary DG House, Israel
Israeli-design studio DOMB Architects have designed the contemporary DG House in Ramat-Hasharon, Israel.
The design is modern but simple, and materials used are basic: painted plaster, grey oak and glass. The plot is located at the end of dead-end street. Facade is very narrow, and at back of a public park.
The architects initial decision was to put the building in the advance lines of the street, and to leave the back garden as big as possible. Due to the width of the pitch, the house was divided into two wings – two asymmetrical boxes, which connect the open staircases.
Large doors open to the volume, which bring beautiful views to the outdoor pool, and leave in the center of the house – a double height central space that connects all the house activities, this is the focal point of this contemporary house. Images courtesy of Amit Geron.
