“The Sufi Order International (SOI) community desired to build an interspiritual temple called the ‘Universel’ at the Abode of the Message located in the Berkshire Mountains near New Lebanon, New York,” taken from Geotectura’s online literature.

Although we previously covered their  Greenest Building in Israel, which is currently in the process of acquiring LEED certification, as a special to Green Prophet readers, we would like to present a phantasmagorical selection of Israel-based Geotectura’s architectural designs.

For these various designs,  Dr. Yossi Cory and his team have received approximately twenty design awards, the most recent of which is the 3rd prize in Israel’s Project of the Year Award this year, as well as numerous media mentions. They are driven by a philosophy of social responsibility and energy efficiency, like the Swiss 2000 Watt Society, and unimpeded thinking.  On one wall of their Tel Aviv office, they have a giant painting of Salvador Dali, the eccentric painter of Melting Clocks and other time-bending art.  Geotectura designs might not shift time, but they certainly shift imaginations.
