Beit Asia, Postmodern office building in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Beit Asia is a 33-story office tower in central Tel Aviv, designed in a postmodern style with a stepped facade covered in geometric patterns. The building rises noticeably above the surrounding streets and houses office and commercial space across its floors.
The tower was built in the late 1970s to a design by architect Mordechai Ben-Horin, during a period when Tel Aviv was seeing rapid growth in commercial real estate. It was among the early high-rise buildings in the city to move away from the plainer architectural forms that had been typical until then.
Beit Asia was among the first towers in Tel Aviv to use a stepped, geometric facade rather than a plain glass curtain wall, giving it a recognizable profile on the city skyline. Today it is known mainly as a place of work for companies in finance and business services.
The building sits in central Tel Aviv and is easy to reach on foot or by bus from several neighborhoods. Those who want to see the facade can do so from the street at any time, as it is clearly visible from the surrounding sidewalks.
The name "Beit Asia" means "House of Asia" in Hebrew, reflecting the building's original intention to serve as a hub for business connections with Asian partners. This kind of internationally oriented focus was unusual for a Tel Aviv office building of the 1970s.
