Interior Designer Creates Family Home in Kibbutz Amiad Balancing Style and Function

Interior designer Reut Mor designed her first personal project, a 250-square-meter family home in the expansion neighborhood of Kibbutz Amiad. The house was created for her family of seven, including her husband, a CEO at Fox Group, and their five daughters. The design balances lively family life with private, quiet spaces, blending rustic and industrial elements.

The two-story home was developed in collaboration with architect Revital Wolf. The ground floor features an open-plan living room, kitchen, dining area, three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and laundry room with backyard access. The upper floor includes a floating gallery overlooking the main space, an additional bedroom, a master suite with a private balcony, and a flexible home office with a separate entrance.

Mor’s design combines natural materials such as wood, stone, and wicker with modern industrial touches like iron, concrete, and metal. A standout feature is the decorative metal air-conditioning duct connecting both floors, serving as a sculptural element. Large windows and openings, supplied by Andersen’s Green Seal brand, bring in abundant natural light and views of the Galilee landscape, blurring indoor-outdoor boundaries.

The home’s interior palette uses warm natural tones of wood, green, and terracotta, contrasted by black steel railings and stairs, merging rustic and industrial styles. Each daughter collaborated on her bedroom’s design, resulting in unique color schemes and custom carpentry. The master bedroom offers calming nude and pink hues with a large window overlooking the mountains. Bathrooms feature a mix of bold and modern color schemes, while even the laundry room received detailed design attention.

Every design decision aimed to harmonize aesthetics with functionality, creating a home that feels authentic and adaptable to the family’s evolving needs. The project was executed by contractor Maher Ajami with supervision by Nativ Ohana.
