Policy for conservation complexes in
Kir'on
Policy
Client: Kiryat Ono municipality
Location: Kiryat Ono, Israel
2022-2023
In collaboration with Arch. Adi Har-Noy
The Policy for conservation complexes in Kir'on was commissioned by the municipality of Kiryat Ono in 2022, in order to define the municipal policy for future interventions in Kir'on neighborhood. The document is divided into four main components: 1. Identifying the urban, architectural and landscape qualities of the Kir'on neighborhood. 2. Defining planning principles to leverage the existing qualities in the renewed Kiryat Ono. 3. A 'toolbox' containing possible planning and implementation mechanisms, according to each complex. 4. Creating a plan for future work.
The Kir'on neighborhood, which was designed based on the Neighborhood Unit scheme by Architect Israel Lotan in the early 1960s, consists of 6 sub-complexes centered around a central public park. Each sub-complex has different qualities and characteristics. Therefore, each sub-complex has its own principles for conservation and urban renewal.
