Description:
'Interposed' is the thesis project which examines the current practice of bringing young ‘olim’ (new immigrants) to Israel and questions using the Absorption Center as an obsolete model and a tool for Israeli national institutionalization.
The concept proposed in the book is unprecedented in Israel - it includes the integration of new citizens into the global urban context of Tel Aviv while encouraging them to mix with the local community and creating an environment, which would enable positive interactions. At the same time, the goal of the project is not only to offer the city to the migrants but also to contribute to the renovation of one of its most central and popular sites – Carmel Market.
