Design of the Times

They say that variety is the spice of life and in the case of the interior of this apartment in central Tel Aviv, it certainly rings true. Indeed, the mixture of period features and contemporary flourishes make this address a rather unique place to stay.

Just like much of the city's architecture, there's a strong Bauhaus influence, particularly in the functional dining bench and rich-brown parquet flooring, but the stark white walls, geometric tiling and Insta-friendly shelves of house plants bring the space bang up-to-date. One thing that never goes out of style is natural light and it's fair to say that the home receives its fair share from the large windows.

We should also probably mention that location is nothing short of superb, as well. The golden sands of Gordon Beach take just over five minutes to reach on foot, while Kikar Dizengoff and the Bauhaus Center both lie a similar amount of time away. You'll never be short of restaurants or cafes to visit in the local neighbourhood, either.

Home truths:
*The building has no lift to reach this single-level apartment
*There's no private parking available, but there's a bus stop fifty metres from the front door
*The host can be contract twenty-four hours a day in case of any issues
