is located within a highly sensitive historic, cultural, and religious seam along the slopes of the Hinnom Valley, positioned between the Khan Theater, the Scottish Church, and Bible Hill. The landscape design approaches the site as a complex interface where multiple urban and symbolic layers converge, positioning landscape architecture as a mediating practice operating between public and private, sacred and civic, and preservation and renewal. At the core of the project is the design of a “threshold landscape” — a transitional plaza that enables spatial continuity and open public access while carefully maintaining the privacy and identity of the hotel and adjacent religious institutions. The intervention combines existing rock-cut steps with a new system of cast-in-place concrete terraces, creating a dialogue between the historic topography and contemporary architectural language. Through restrained materiality and subtle spatial articulation, the project avoids hard boundaries, instead establishing soft edges that negotiate movement, visibility, and use. By redefining the boundary not as a line of separation but as an active zone of exchange, the project demonstrates how landscape architecture can bridge cultural and spatial differences, embedding new development within a layered urban context while preserving its historical and symbolic significance.
