The studio was based on the book 'Le città invisibili'. when we chose the story from it About the city of 'Bauchi' as an inspiration. We chose to plan in the green Ramat Aviv neighborhood in Tel Aviv because it reminded us, like in a story, of a peaceful and pastoral place, where the residents enjoy a calm life and disconnection from the rest of the environment.
The project sets several key objectives: softening the neighborhood's boundaries and connecting it with adjacent neighborhoods through a network of pathways and green corridors; adding public buildings and schools both within and outside the neighborhood on existing parking areas, integrating them into the existing pathway system; and planning new residential units along the green corridors while maintaining building height compatibility with the existing area.
Chaim Levanon Street, a major thoroughfare for academic institutions with planned light rail stations, serves as an important urban line that combines nature with urban life. The proposed plan will transform this street into a vibrant, walkable route connecting the botanical garden in the east with the sea in the west, incorporating diverse sections along the way to create a layered experience. The extensive parking areas, which currently occupy vast land, will be relocated underground and integrated into the network of corridors and pathways linking the street to the neighborhood, aiming to make this route an active and accessible point of connection for the public.
