Gilat Meeting Trail

2024
Second place winner of the Dori Award design competition

Published in Portfolio Magazine

This project proposes a series of architectural interventions at the Gilat Junction in Israel’s Negev region, aiming to support connection, recovery, and everyday gathering in a place shaped by both civil and military presence.

​

Four distinct yet complementary spaces are introduced: a sports and movement area, a water-based therapy space, a farmers' market with integrated logistics, and a shaded natural zone for informal rest. Each is designed to encourage moments of care, through activity, ritual, commerce, or quiet, offering a shared spatial language in a landscape often marked by division.
