Tav Group is an architecture atelier based in Haifa, Israel.
Since 1987, we have built earth-friendly public and private projects, following tenets of sustainability, experimentation and collaboration.
Tav Group was founded by architects Maoz Alon, Yoav Trifon and the late Reuven Cohen Alloro, and today it includes the architects Dalia Kramer, Amir Erez, Liudmila Nabroskova, Sai Alon and Ebtihal Ragheb.
Our process usually treats concept, design and execution as a whole, continuous and reflective process.
Our work is preferably carried out on site, evolving from its unique context and responding to it. The spectators, users and passers-by are part and parcel of the work: they are actors as well as co-directors who take part in shaping it.
We promote sustainability in all our activities. This disturbed planet of ours, if in any need for more human action, asks for reconciling acts that might bring about peace between nature and man, nations and individuals.
