Yehiam Memorial

This is another memorial building which caught my attention a lot.in terms of design the event that occured and the identity of the kibbutz tribe of people who were modernistic in their thinking in the conservative society of the past is represented so clearly in the Modern design of this building and also the usage of simple concept of balnace and imbalace in terms of design and concept interpretation is something i found very intresting.

The concept of the feeling of the inside of a truck which was used during that period Incorporated in the design and the will to convey the state of sorrow for the victims is acheived brilliantly with using architecture as a language.

On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the convoy to Yechiam, the memorial site for those who were killed in the convoy, and for the fallen Kibbutz members, was designed.
the kibbutz members had a prominent history in isreal.

The visitor who arrives at the memorial experiences, while progressing to the hall the confined geometry of the place that was designed with the help of a computer, and based on physical models. The materials used in the construction are wood and plaster. The space that is revealed inside the building is a clean space, which forms a balance on the one hand of the general feeling, and on the other hand points to the photos of the fallen.




The photos themselves are emphasized by hidden lighting, both natural and artificial. In the interior design work of the site, the photos of the fallen were reconstructed and renovated with the help of computers.
