ClientNo to Violence

Amos Goldreich Architecture was commissioned by the charity, No To Violence, to design and deliver this unique project located in Israel, near Tel- Aviv. The new, purpose-built shelter replaces an existing one, providing a totally secure and sheltered building and peaceful haven that gives its inhabitants a home away from home. The building has two facades - the secure and protective exterior, and the inner façade, with the central garden; the therapeutic “heart” of the shelter. On arrival, each family is given a small ‘house’ that is part of the larger building.
