Vernacular architecture
Following a deep observation of Galicia roofs in the old city of Jerusalem, my partner, Tom Asiskovich, and I discovered various architectural phenomena that produce tense situations and complex layers of private and public spaces. We chose to study the vernacular architecture as it constitutes the main building method in that area. After a long process of examination and analysis, we started producing documents that study a suggestive situation of the area in 10 years from the date of submitting the project, taking into consideration many parameters including the natural increase of population and the development of existing programs, ignoring any surprising or unexpected events that may occur during the 10 years. the following step was to plan temporary events, with the same language of vernacular architecture in the old city, that would occur on top of the future image of the area that we have suggested.
