Housing is one of the major topics in Architecture and represents a significant portion of the professional activity and construction in the country and around the world. The Studio will deal with these issues, studying, considering and comprehending the Housing issue in both Israeli and World architecture history. The Studio will work on the documentation, study and analysis of both national and international examples throughout the years by examination of professional literature and study tours to existing sites.

According to the insights gathered from these materials, the students will develop  an individual and personal paper on the Housing issue and will design an architectural proposal for a housing complex in an urban fabric, including contemporary, future and timeless topics such as physical needs, social and cultural needs, density, ecology, economy, etc’.

The Studio will deal with the design of a housing complex of at least  40 units (in a density of 2400 sqm per 1000 sqm of land), developing it through three different scales: the single unit, the complex and the urban fabric.
