A state-of-the-art cultural and educational complex situated at the heart of the historic Hebrew Herzliya Gymnasium campus. The project features a modern, multi-tiered auditorium building with approx. 440 seats and an adjacent cafeteria pavilion, designed to serve both the student body and the local community.
The architectural language of the complex draws direct inspiration from the International Style (Bauhaus) and White City architecture that define the historic heart of Tel Aviv. The design translates the core values of functionalism and geometric simplicity into clean, monolithic volumes and crisp white plaster facades that seamlessly integrate with the existing urban fabric.
A warm, material contrast to the clean white exterior is masterfully achieved within the interior and the two-story foyer. Here, meticulously detailed Baltic Birch plywood is utilized for the seating tiers (tribunes) and public wall claddings—striking an elegant balance between modern acoustics, architectural warmth, and an inviting cultural atmosphere.
