  • An animation of a blue box transforming into a building with a rectangular opening and a ramp, surrounded by a fence.

    Memorial in Ramat Yishai integrates a ‘black box’ structure to honor fallens and preserve memory.

    Its design features layers of closure and openness, achieved through a double shell and stratification of uses across different levels.
    Positioned at the settlement’s entrance, the building connects with surrounding streets and maintains continuity with local architecture.

    Overall, the “Black Box” is a cultural hub fostering community cohesion and resident identification.
