W Towers Sq., Tel Aviv
A rooftop of an underground parking garage, situated between hi-rise towers in a new neighborhood surrounded by congested, busy roads. In this artificial landscape entirely disconnected from the ground, the questions arises: What kind of landscape do we wish to create in this space?
The plaza we have designed responds to the surrounding towers – through its basic geometry, openness, elegant choice of materials and tranquil reflection pool. A “flowerbed” of weather vanes transforms wind, one of the inevitable characteristics of tower environments, into a visual focal point.
