Architect and Owner, Yashar Architects
Born and raised in Tel Aviv, Avner Yashar is the chief architect and owner of ‘Yashar Architects’. He is deeply invested in Israeli cities architecture and urban design and has a vast experience of 35 years.
Over the past 20 years, Avner has been calling for the densification of cities in Israel. During these years, the projects he planned were also characterized by multiple urban constructions, including the construction of skyscrapers and mixed-use projects. In addition, Avner claims that the accelerated population growth requires new and innovative thinking regarding the development of future cities in Israel.
Among the firm’s most notable projects are the ISDE tower, which will be the tallest in the country and one of the tallest in the world (more than 500m); ‘LANDMARK’, Tel-Aviv’s largest commercial project; ‘Da-Vinci Towers’; ‘Vitania-TLV’ mixed-use Complex; ‘DUO’ Towers, and many more.
Avner also designed the Israeli headquarters for world-renowned companies like Microsoft, Apple, SAP, WeWork, Kodak, Motorola, Comverse, BMW, and others.
Last year, ToHA Tower (in collaboration with Ron Arad Architects) won the 2021 CTBUH Best Tall Office Building in the World Award.
