The Family Health Station, Modi´in


This building of the Family Health Station was awarded the title of "Beautiful Building" by the Local Council of Modi`in.
The Design Language is based on four pure geometrical shapes, cutting into each other: the "Square" {the Multipurpose Hall}, the "Rectangle" {the Clinics}, the "Circle" {the Entrance Hall}, and the "Line" {the Wall cutting through the building creating the entrance}.
The compositions of the shapes create contrasts that build up the artistic equilibrium in the building.
The Wall changes from a row of columns to a wall with perforations; ending in a totally opaque wall. The top of the Wall is slanted, creating a dynamic skyline contrasting with the other perpendicular lines of the building. The Wall and the Entry Arch are in "semi-pastel" colors contrasting with the "neutral" ones of the buildings` stone walls, and remind us that the building users are actually children.
