e+n apartment

Tel Aviv Jaffa, 2025
Size: 100 sqm
Residential

A family of four (along with their two cats), envisioned their Tel Aviv-Jaffa apartment as a calm and continuous living environment—spatially fluid, quietly expressive, and deeply functional. Central to the design is a rhythm of custom joinery that defines movement and enclosure. Full-height volumes are used not only to store and conceal, but to shape the way the home unfolds: gently marking the threshold between public and private, while housing a range of everyday functions—from a home office to a laundry niche to a piano alcove—without disrupting the visual clarity of the space.

Every centimeter of the apartment was considered with care. Where to leave room for air, light, and motion; where to insert weight, tactility, and use. The result is a space that feels open yet contained, composed yet warm. Circulation becomes a soft sequence of transitions, with built elements acting as both frame and filter. Pocket doors disappear into walls, bench seating slips beneath windows, and layered cabinetry masks more than it reveals.

A palette of pale wood, muted cream tones, and wild, expressive stone sets the backdrop for moments of color and texture—deep greens, coral pinks, violet and ochre—woven sparingly into the composition. These gestures, always restrained, bring a sense of quiet exuberance to the stillness of the whole.

This is a home defined not by any one element, but by the way each part contributes to a larger, coherent system. A place where structure and storage blur into one, and the architecture supports a daily life that is light, grounded, and gently unfolding
