Negev Centre
Beersheba, Southern District, Israel; 1970 (incomplete)Ram Karmi
«The temperature is 6 degrees lower than in the shade outside. The Negev Centre, though not an imitation of an Arab village, seeks to combine modern materials and techniques with native wisdom in the field of architecture. This building has not a facade in the conventional sense; it is an articulated concrete structure, the contours of which throw sharp contrasts of light and shade. Three-dimensional form takes precedence over the material used. This building is the result of an attempt to combine various civic functions with smooth interactions and is inspired by the truth that only multifarious activities produce life.»
