A frequent theme that unites the subject matter in "Seamless Neighbourhood" is the desire to uncover stories of invisible landscapes, and to reveal the seamlessness of those inhabited geographies. Landscapes, and in particular man-made landscapes, form part of the basic building blocks of everyday inquiry for architects, planners and urban geographers.
Landscapes are of course not just designed; they are primarily personally lived, experienced, consumed, tasted even. Their stories are particular and peculiar to each individual. We read our own everyday landscape according to a vast and complex ever-changing, bewildering array of often competing and often contradictory information.
In many ways "Seamless Neighbourhood" can be viewed as a geographer's and an architect's diary, both an imagined and real road trip of a city, an extended story of a greater and seamless Tel Aviv. The story is told with the aid of copious amounts of photographs, maps, drawings and graphics.
