Tel Aviv Port by Mayslits Kassif Architects. Mayslits Kassif Architects have completed the regeneration of public spaces at Tel Aviv Port in Israel. The architects hope the undulating surface will act "both as a reflection of the mythological dunes on which the port was built and as an open invitation to free interpretations and unstructured activities.

" Photographs by Albi Serfaty, Tamar Navon, and Galia Kronfeld. Here's some more information from Mayslits Kassif Architects: Tel Aviv Port / Public Space Regeneration Project by Mayslits Kassif Architects Situated on one of Israel's most breathtaking waterfronts, the Tel Aviv Port was plagued with neglect since 1965, when its primary use as an operational docking port was abandoned. The architects viewed the project as a unique opportunity to construct a public space which challenges the common contrast between private and public development, and suggests a new agenda of hospitality for collective open spaces.
