How does space become a home?
Vertical elements are visible to us at any time without notice. These have become an integral part of our everyday environment, until we stop seeing them.
They are now exposed, standing upright, not all vertical anymore, but with an angular deviation of 90 degrees.
This project shows that the deviation, which is different, does not affect the essence:
The avenue is an avenue
The page is a page

Plants are part of our existence. Their mere presence helps to maintain and protect the balance in our lives. From the beginning of mankind they were used to cover the body and we still use them to adorn our important occasions. Independent and free by nature, when we let them be, they flourish and die, sustaining the circle of life.
In an abandoned lot on 2 Alonim Street in the center of Ramat Gan, there is a phenomenon that embodies the essence of nature. This phenomenon began in 2009 from the moment it was abandoned until today - the plants are alive, 'concealing and protecting' the structure. Over the years the plants continue their life cycle– they flower, multiply, grow and then die.
This project aims to allow this piece of nature to continue to live. A kind of 'treasure' buried within the city. The public is invited to come to this garden and experience the wonder that was created between the plants and the building. Watch, stay, enjoy, explore and learn.
