The Challenge
Submitting a bid required planning a space that would offer an exceptional experience for visitors while serving as a representative platform for the Technion’s accomplishments and groundbreaking achievements.
Our Solution
The center’s core revolves around an octagonal-shaped space, covered with large black stone tiles that give it a dramatic presence in the open expanse. In this design concept, the octagon represents the Technion as a platform that enriches the students, lecturers, researchers, and world leaders who pass through it, allowing them to achieve a ‘eureka moment’ and bring new discoveries and inventions to the world.
Technion Visitors center
Haifa (600 sqm)
The new Technion visitors center has been built next to the old visitors center on the Mount Carmel ridge in Haifa. Submitting a bid required planning a space that would provide an exceptional experience for visitors and serve as a representative platform for the Technion’s accomplishments and trailblazing achievements.
Exiting the exhibit to the main gallery, visitors are exposed to several elements that continue the experience described in the octagon. At the eureka moment of discovery, the octagon “resonates” with the space around it and creates a wall that has absorbed the “shock wave” from the creative moment. The concrete wall creates an impression of meteor crystals frozen in place, leaving behind moments of drama.
