בית דובינר

The Dubiner House is a seven-story residential building in Ramat Gan designed with hexagonal forms and open terraces throughout its structure. The construction connects different floors through passages and creates an unusual layout with multiple apartments on each level.

The building was completed in 1963 according to designs by three renowned architects and was commissioned by a successful industrialist and his wife. The project arrived when Israel was seeking modernist housing solutions for its expanding cities.

The building presents a different vision of how people could live together, moving away from the typical apartment styles Israelis knew in the 1960s. Its geometric forms and connected spaces shaped how architects thought about modern housing during that era.

Access to the interior is typically not available to visitors, but the facade can be easily viewed from the street. The best views come from different angles around the building to fully appreciate the hexagonal patterns from multiple perspectives.

Each floor divides into two or three hexagonal apartments, an unusual layout adapted to the heat and light of the Mediterranean climate. This hexagonal shape allows natural ventilation and shadow patterns that keep the building naturally cooler during hot months.
