Axelrod Architects@Axelrod
Founded in 2006 by Principal Irit Axelrod, acclaimed architectural firm Axelrod Design is based in San Francisco and Tel Aviv, with a notable body of work in the modernist style, including distinctive private residences, commercial buildings and interiors, and public spaces, including the Ben Gurion Heritage Institute building, south of Israel.
The firm’s rigorous and elemental design approach has resulted in a meticulously crafted minimalism. Its principal’s personal vision captures an unconventional beauty, found in the expression of natural materials and construction methods. The result renders sleek, monolithic structures that explore an unbridled play on light, proportions, and geometry.
Axelrod Design recognizes the best buildings come from a close collaboration between itself, its consultants, the general contractor and the client. With this in mind, it approaches every project from conceptual design through construction, overseeing every detail is faithfully executed, resulting in a precisely constructed building.
Irit Axelrod graduated from the Faculty of Architecture in the Technion/ Israeli Institute of Technology (1993). She is an International Assoc. AIA member and LEED© AP Certified. The firm has been published in top international architecture publications, including Wallpaper, Dwell and Domus.
