“Gertner Architects & Urban Planners” is one of Israel’s leading architects firms – planners and designers of large-scale construction projects in such fields as the hospitality and leisure industry and projects combining commercial, trade, residential elements and public institutions. We possess extensive, cutting-edge professional know-how and long-term experience that guarantee our proven ability to provide comprehensive, optimal planning solutions to practically any project – in Israel as well as abroad.
Our firm is noted for its farsighted planning vision and our employees serve in various long-term planning teams in the fields of regional and urban planning. Additionally, we initiate our own unique projects, such as a master plan for a string of artificial islands opposite the metropolitan Tel-Aviv, a plan for a longitudinal city park above the Ayalon highway in Tel Aviv, an initiative for a lagoon city in Eilat, etc.
We regard architectural planning and design as a creative task of the highest order, beyond the mere technical planning of buildings. We carry out this task through close cooperation with our clients, the entrepreneurs and the consulting specialists for the purpose of creating environments, structures and physical spaces that possess unique characteristics and attraction, so as to provide each project with a decisive edge in today’s competitive atmosphere. We guarantee the success of the projects in which we take part by strictly observing the essential balance between creativity and inventiveness – based on professional-scientific know-how of the highest order – on the one hand and the economic-financial constraints on the other hand.
Our approach to the planning methodology is based on in-depth studying and thorough understanding of the client’s preliminary requirements, while retaining a degree of conceptual and administrative flexibility in the event that revisions are required during the planning and development process. Our planning and design effort includes the preparation of planning alternatives that we present to the client and the entrepreneur, accompanied by an in-depth comparative analysis based on clearly-defined, objective criteria, so as to ensure that the preferred alternative is selected as intelligently and as rationally as possible.
Our firm specializes in the design and planning of structures and urban environments based on energy conservation considerations and a comprehensive ecological-environmental approach.
We employ professional teams of urban planners, architects and designers, and have been involved – since the firm was established in 1982 – in an extensive range of activities and project types.
“Gertner Architects & Urban Planners” is a member of the “Metropolis Regional Planning” group, conceived and established in order to cope with the growing complexity of regional planning problems in Israel. The Metropolis Group consists of four independent planning firms, each specializing in a specific field, thereby attaining a multidisciplinary synergy. The Group is currently engaged in the planning of the Ono Valley region, the preparation of a master plan for the town of Acre and other projects.
We believe in long-term relationships with our clients, relationships based on trust, professionalism and warm interpersonal contact. We hope to remain your natural partners for many years to come.
