The Rabin Center for Peace Studies is perched high on a bunker overlooking the Mediterranean Coast. The design of the center embraces symbols of peace and reflection, creating tranquil places for people to learn, dialogue, and contemplate.

The dramatic curved ceiling of the atrium alludes to giant dove wings soaring over the site. Two terraced gardens ascend from the building and wrap around the central water feature. These gardens, named the Hussein and Clinton Gardens, represent the peace treaty between Israel and Jordan and offer a variety of spaces, some intimate and some more public, for relaxing, reading, studying or gathering. An amphitheater is carved out of the Clinton Garden offering a space for events and other gathering opportunities while a cool microclimate is created in the Hussein Garden by a cascading water feature falling over the terrace walls. The gardens overlook and are reflected within the central water feature representing the unifying spirit of global peace efforts.
