Shortlisted for infrastructure project of the year at Dezeen Awards 2020, Technion Entrance Gate is a new entrance gate for Israel's Institute of Technology.

The studio has designed a gate that will represent Technion's values of excellence and innovation and will ensure safe and controlled entry process.

The project links two existing disconnected promenades – the first arrives from the city and ends next to the gate, and the second departs near the entry gate inside the campus, towards the campus historic centre.

The project offers a new interpretation to the idea of a gate – not a barrier or a separator, but as a bridge that connects the city and the campus through a green promenade.
