Moments of joy (Bauhaus architecture in Tel Aviv)
Moments of joy
When a moment brings happiness, it is received with joy. However, such moments often come with a big worry that they will not last long. While fearing the disappearance of what brings so much pleasure, you risk not appreciating the actual moment.
Things are very different regarding the supposedly bad moments. When the wind of life blows too strong and standing up strong and straight becomes difficult, the desire for the disappearance of what brings so much sorrow increases quickly. Yet, it feels like such moments will never end.
But just like trees need wind to grow strong, we need challenges in our lives to become stronger. Even if one or the other branch breaks off, leaving scars, there will be new ones growing back. However, it's important to remember that everything will eventually pass, no matter how challenging things seem.
Bauhaus architecture in Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv is home to many iconic landmarks and architectural feats, but none as impressive as the beautifully renovated Bauhaus buildings. In the summer of 2022, I had the pleasure of visiting one such building I had seen many times before. It had recently added two extra stories on top.
The building is a testament to the genius of Bauhaus architecture, with its clean lines, simple shapes, and muted tones creating a powerful visual impact. It's no wonder that so much of Tel Aviv's skyline has been shaped by these types of buildings; they have an unmistakable tonality that is both persuasive and captivating.
Not only does this particular building stand out for its aesthetic beauty, but it also serves an essential purpose in preserving the city's history. After extensive renovation, the building looks better than ever before and serves as a reminder of Tel Aviv's evocative past.
