This project explores the complex topography of the city of Safed (Tzfat), characterized by its remote location, mountainous terrain, and significant elevation. The proposal seeks to reconnect the fragmented edges of the city through the development of a multi-level architectural complex. The design integrates a bridge at its uppermost level, serving as both a physical and symbolic connector. The program includes a residential cluster, a hotel, and a train station that provides direct access to the national railway network—reestablishing Safed’s connection to the broader urban and infrastructural fabric of Israel. The project addresses issues of accessibility, isolation, and topographical disjunction through an architectural intervention that mediates between landscape and infrastructure, past and future.
