projects
Designed by Zaha Hadid in collaboration with
ADP Ingeniérie after winning an international
competition in 2011, the new Beijing airport
has been inaugurated. Although Hadid
herself did not live to see some of the
posts comparing the impressive structure
to a vagina, she has proved again that
architecture is a profession that leaves one
on the map many years after death, and that
is a comfort. Planned to alleviate the existing
airport’s traffic pressure, the new airport
is expected to become one of the most
congested in the world, serving altogether
approximately 170 million passengers a year.
students
Final projects by students from the Ariel
School of Architecture dealt with the subject of
a dwelling according to their choice, provided
it holds a critical point of view. Doron Anhang
designed student dorms as an “architectural
laboratory for community living in a world
saturated with information, which intensifies
the issue of loneliness”.
Supervisor: Architect Daniel Azrad.
Other projects at the Ariel School of
Architecture concentrated on human
diversity on Jaffa St., combining the old and
the new at the entrance to the city, installing
a train in the Old City of Jerusalem, historical
affiliation in Har Homa, and the problematic
public passage connecting Pisgat Ze’ev and
Sho’afat.
That's it for this quarter, please write.

architectural schools, and a permit reality
strangled by regulations (See discussion
with Dean of the Faculty of Architecture at
the Technion, Prof. Yasha Grobman).
