This 62,500 sf new Tel Aviv University School of Architecture integrates the David Azrieli Archive and commercial spaces to engage with the city. The hybrid design creates a campus gateway blends learning cultural and social spaces and prioritizes sustainability. A large stair cuts through the building forming a raised plaza and sculpture garden that connects city and campus.

The cantilevering top volume houses the Architecture School serving as an iconic TAU entrance. Studio layouts are flexible with visual connections across spaces the suspended auditorium links to a roof garden offering lecturers and audiences panoramic views of the university and the ocean. A parametrically modeled concrete screen responds directly to the sun’s path featuring self cleaning and nitrous oxide absorbent properties.
