About Semi Detached House
A Confluence of Design and Craftsmanship
The Design Museum Holon inspired this semi-detached house, which now stands prominently in an emerging neighborhood. It boasts four floors and a vibrant garden, offering a feast for the eyes. In the basement, designed for entertainment, a rich “Irish” green reminiscent of traditional Irish pubs dominates. On the entrance floor, the living room and kitchen directly nod to the corten rings of Ron Arad’s Design Museum, located just across the street.
Each floor introduces its own color palette, adding layers to the home’s dynamic character. Doors on every floor not only showcase unique colors but also carry CNC icons, highlighting the room’s function. For example, vibrant green colors the basement doors, while a bold marsala graces the guest restroom door. In contrast, doors on the first and last floors seamlessly match their respective wall colors.
Shedding Light on Artistic Brilliance
As a dedicated lighting designer, the importance of perfectly balanced illumination cannot be understated. Top-tier international brands such as IGuzzini, Davide Groppi, XAL, MUUTO, and Wever & Ducre light up the spaces. Israeli design powerhouse, COZI studio, crafted the pendant lamps in the kitchen and designed the sleek shelves and coffee tables in the living room. And as you climb the stairs, an intricately designed iron tile artwork captures your attention. Strategically placed lighting also accentuates the iron net statues in the living room, creating a visual treat.
