The Bar Ilan University master plan that Moshe Safdie designed was for the School of Economics and the Student Dormitories. It was planned as an urban system composed of open quadrangles defined by buildings and urban thorough fares which branched out to secondary roads and other squares. The School of Economics is an 8-storey multi-purpose building that is terraced, providing shade for the main campus walkway by its overhangs. The Student Dormitories, accommodating about 200 students, consist of a 2-storey living area around which the bedrooms are clustered. Overall, the dorms reach 6 storeys in height, stacking three terraced apartment units together, with the public spaces facing the academic quadrangle and the private spaces facing the south.

The new Bar Ilan University master plan that Moshe Safdie designed was for the School of Economics and the Student Dormitories.

This new airport serves as Israel's principal gateway and represents the country's most optimistic aspirations. A landside complex accommodates ticketing, customs, immigration, and baggage claim; Safdie's airside complex includes a glazed connector and rotunda accommodating food, retail facilities, and passenger services, with concourses radiating outwards to landing gates.

More than 16 million passengers per year travel through this entry to the nation, which is expressed in a clean palette of glass, warm stone, and metal. Departing passengers check in and descend through the connector into the rotunda, then down the concourses to their gates. Arriving passengers ascend through bridges at the gates to a mezzanine level that overlooks the concourses and the rotunda, then descend toward passport control through the connector.

Traversed by arriving and departing visitors, the glass-enclosed scissor-shaped ramps dramatize the ideal of open borders and serve as a ceremonial gateway in both directions.

The airport's rotunda features an inverted dome pierced by an oculus through which a waterfall flows. Falling rain drains toward the dome's center, entering the rotunda through the oculus. In the dry season, a continuous flow of water washes the roof, helping to cool the rotunda and create a fountain through the oculus.
