Summary

Tel Aviv's architectural identity has evolved from the 'White City' to the 'Bauhaus City,' reflecting its urban and architectural resilience. This transformation, driven by European architects, including Bauhaus graduates, has shaped the city's modernist landscape. The study explores how these evolving myths have contributed to the preservation of Tel Aviv's unique heritage, ensuring both urban and architectural conservation.
