Agbaria House by Ron Fleisher Architects



Tel Aviv architect Ron Fleisher has designed a house in an Israeli-Arab village that combines traditional Islamic architecture with modernism. The facade features Arabic mashrabiya lattice screens and vents at the top of the house allow breezes to circulate. The house is entered through a double-height vaulted entrance hall, based on a traditional liwan, around which the private areas of the house are arranged. The Agbaria House is located on a steep hillside in the village of Musmus in the Haifa district of Israel.
