This collection discusses the innovative and experimental
architecture of Israel during its first three decades following the
nation's establishment in 1948. Written by leading researchers, the
volume highlights new perspectives on the topic, discussing the
inception, modernization and habitation of historic and
lesser-researched areas alike in its interrogation. Inbal Ben-Asher
Gitler and Anat Geva show how Israeli nation building, in its
cultural, political and historical contexts, constituted an
exceptional experiment in modern architecture. Examples include
modern experiments in mass housing design; public architecture such
as exhibition spaces, youth villages and synagogues; a necessary
consideration of climate in modern architectural experiments; and
the exportation of Israeli modern architecture to other countries.
