The House of Light is a contemporary residence located in Israel, designed in 2022 by Cochav Aluminum.

Description
The house was planned for a family seeking to create a tranquil island, a pleasant space in which to conduct their lives. The house is contemporary in style. Parts of it preach minimalism, and other aspects convey a pleasant warmth. The contrasting palette of materials generates interest, as textile encounters wood, metal and glass. The overall appearance is free of clutter, but in a way that does not feel alienating. There is a kind of delicate balance between coziness and clean design. There are two floors ? the entrance floor is the public one, the living room area and the kitchen have access to the meticulously well-kept outdoor areas and the swimming pool. On the second floor are the bedrooms, each with an aperture large enough to enjoy the outdoor view and a generous amount of natural light. The house was designed with an abundance of windows, all with a minimalistic look, using the VERONA system ? an aluminum system intended for markedly wide apertures, which provides a refined look with easily accessible opening mechanisms.
The Main Challenge
The Main challenge in a house of this kind, is to create the same delicate balance between cold and warm, dark and light, protective, enveloping yet extensive and open. This is how a large living space, in which one does not get lost, can be achieved.
