Modern Cave / Pitsou Kedem Architects
The rooms making up this Old Jaffa apartment came together over hundreds of years ? each with its own character and ground level. Refurbishing presented an opportunity to unite the rooms into one whole and in particular, to illuminate and brighten the dim space by opening it up toward the sea.

Decorations added over the years to the ceiling arches were promptly removed and the arches covered in white plaster. In contrast ? the impressive dome in the kitchen, which had been covered in layers of plaster, was uncovered. The floor level was unified ? by addition or subtraction ? depending on the room, and a new raw concrete floor was cast, with accentuated filing stones.
