Retrofit
The retrofit project for the Israeli Embassy in Brazil was executed within the chancery building, originally envisioned by architect David Reznick in 1974.
The renovation design created appropriate external consular spaces, and improved office spaces through restoration and preservation of the building exterior and significant interior spaces that contribute to the historic character of the property.
A phased construction was held to allow the operations to continue within the property during the renovation works, with no prejudice to the functions of the Embassy and Chancery, as well as the Official Residence and Guard Booth.
The HVAC, electrical and communications networks were fully replaced by new equipment, bathrooms and cafeteria were fully renovated,and the waterproofing of the windows was repaired.
