90 Degrees: Hansen House gets new taste for Jerusalem Design Week
The Hansen House, a ancestral building in Jerusalem that was once a hospital, was flashy with a circuitous pinkish staircase for Jerusalem Design Week, that took place Jun 13-20.
A group of Tel Aviv architects took on installing a visually distinguished staircase that respects a despotic refuge regulations of a building, job their pattern “90 Degrees.”
With a thesis of a week being simply “EAST,” a designation has a erratic scaffolding complement climbing along a side of a building from West to East while encircling around somewhat so as to force visitors to face a East. The height a stairs form is approximately 14 meters high.
The choice tour by a Hansen House presents views past a building to a surrounding areas.
Hansen House, located in a Talibya neighborhood, was creatively a sanatorium for Hansen’s disease, or leprosy. Conrad Schick was a strange architect, a German companion who was educated in architecture.
The Moravian Church’s Herrenhut society ran a sanatorium between a investiture in 1887 and 1950, when a Jewish National Fund bought it from them.
The final leprosy patients left a trickery in 2000 once a heal was found. It is now an art muster for Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design.
