Originally the band was named after the correction fluid Tipp-Ex, but the name was then changed so as not to infringe on the well-known brand, while keeping the pronunciation in Hebrew the same.‬
‪Each member of the band has a diverse background, and as a whole the band has Tunisian, Moroccan, Romanian, Syrian, Polish, Russian, and Yemenite heritage. Teapacks gained popularity by bringing forward traditional Israeli-oriental music combined with light humorous hints. The band leader, Kobi Oz, is well known within Israel for his eccentric looks and style. The band has released seven albums plus a greatest hits collection, which collectively have sold over 300,000 copies. Teapacks has been chosen “Band of the Year” numerous times by Israeli radio stations. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teapacks)‬

Trub

"In the process of brewing beer, 'trub' is the term used for the lees, or layer of sediment, left at the bottom of the fermenter after the yeast has completed the bulk of fermentation...although it contains yeast nutrients, its presence can impart off-flavors in the beer."

-       The New Tahana Merkazit of Tel Aviv, as a complete Open Space –

The concept is simple and radical. Keeping the buses platforms that surround the enormous building, while completely destroying the inner space of the Train Station.

Dark and hard to perceive, all this interior space spread over seven floors, is destroyed and compact to fill the three first floors located under the ground.

Hence,  we obtain a large and straight open and public place, that connect each corner of the Train Station.

Really efficient, the platform system located around this open space, is simple and allow us to turn around it, from the fourth, until the last and seven floor.

The idea is to bring back to this enormous building, an easy orientation and a large quantity of light. During the «Derive experience », we noticed that a huge amount of people are actually using the Tahana Merkazit as an main and central activity area. But it concerns unfortunatly only a specific part of the population that lives in the neighbourhood. Creating a really clear system while destroying the interior space and keeping the buses platform, would consequently bring back a human scale to the building.

The open air activities, dedicated to the inhabitants, are spread all around the beton platforms, all connected to each other.

 - The topographical question, and where the building is connected to the street level - 

  - Preliminary Study - Uses and traffics

- Development of the concept -

Therefore, the Tahana Merkzit become a real open and green spiral in the South of Tel Aviv.
