Public Housing

Ljubljanas socialist apartment buildings look desperate on the outside. I always thought I would never like to live there, inside modernist architecture. I had the same taste for the public housing in the US or in the Soviet Union. So imagine how beautiful it was to see the early modernist dreams scattered around downtown Tel Aviv. Opher showed us the house and the windows of the room in one of the beauties where he used to stay. We all envied him.
