"The relationship between the living environment and work environment is changing rapidly in front of our eyes. The disadvantages to the homogenous and far-flung sleeping suburbs are well known and were particularly noticeable due to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, causing us to focus on our immediate environment and to examine what is within a 100-meter radius. Many people are forced or choose to work from home, and a large share of work and public activity has shifted from the city centers to residential neighborhoods, where a combination of work and trade presents an opportunity for unexpected encounters and connections between people. Ganei Tikva is used as a case study for presenting the Israeli suburban lifestyle and examining the requirements and deficiencies in it, on the one hand, and an organic development of home businesses, working from home, and grassroots social life, which are indicative of the potential the project seeks to fulfill, on the other hand."
