Plane House by K-Studio
Summer in the Greek islands is all about being outside. The aim of the Plane House is to merge internal and external space, maximizing the benefits of both and minimizing the impact on the surrounding landscape.

Pitsou Kedem “stitches” old and new inside Jaffa apartment
Pitsou Kedem “stitches” old and new inside Jaffa apartment
The sea-facing apartment is set inside a 300-year-old building in Jaffa’s Old City, an area recognised for its winding cobbled alleyways and bustling flea market.
When it came to transforming the space into a comfortable family home, Tel Aviv-based Pitsou Kedem sought to form a “stitch between” its own contemporary style, ancient building techniques and the Ottoman-period architecture that’s prevalent in Jaffa.
Aged stone walls punctuated by grand arched openings serve as a backdrop to the rooms within this Jaffa apartment, which has been overhauled by architecture practice Pitsou Kedem.
The Levee: A New Hospitality Venture Captures Tel Aviv’s Zeitgeist
The Levee: A New Hospitality Venture Captures Tel Aviv’s Zeitgeist
Gracefully revamped during ten years of meticulous restoration by Tel Aviv-based Bar Orian Architects, the two-storey villa is crowned by a new rooftop-spanning penthouse whose contemporary sensibility, far from clashing with the century-old architecture, creates a hybrid sensibility that captures the city’s zeitgeist.
Housed in a historic villa in Neve Tzedek, one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Tel Aviv, Israel, “The Levee” is the town’s latest hospitality arrival offering eight spacious apartments of understated luxury and contemporary sophistication where guests can feel at home.
Designed by Israeli-Belgian interior designer Yael Siso, The Levee’s eight apartments follow the exterior’s eclectic paradigm by combining an industrial vibe with a refined aesthetic based on mid-century elegance and modern minimalism.
