1209. Tel-Aviv, House in Hess Street

Dear Esther,

"At the risk of sounding mystical, I must say that 

the decisive inspiration -much more important than experience- comes to me each time from contact 

with the ground on which I will build and with the 

people for whom I am building"
(Richard Kauffmann)

Sincerely,
R

828. Nahalal in the Isreel Valley

Dear Judy,

The round settlement of Nahalal in the Jezreel Valley was
planned by German-Jewish architect Richard Kauffmann
and inspired by the idea of the garden city movement
founded in England by Ebenezer Howard in 1899.

Dash Cham,
