[7] Their designs shared aspects in common with the metabolist movement,[8] borrowing metaphoric shapes from nature for use in planning morphological structures.

[11] Zvi Hecker wrote about his work periodically,[12] co-authoring books with Sir Peter Cook, John Hejduk, and others.

[13] The early projects of Zvi Hecker, designed in partnership with Sharon and Neumann, have architectural qualities that were developed later in his career.

To build such an important school in a place which isn't the center of the country – in my opinion, that's the positive side of the State of Israel".

The Oxford Dictionary of Architecture and Landscape Architecture says of the architect's approach to its design, "Eschewing the right angles of international modernism, he turned to crystalline geometry found in nature [...]"[15] Another of the Zvi Hecker's projects in partnership, the Bat Yam City Hall shows the recurrence of geometrical invention that exists throughout his work.

It is linked to other works of architecture such as Boston City Hall through this form, in addition to their program, similar materials, and time period.

This site-specific memorial commemorates the Jewish community of Kreuzberg, and their Lindenstrasse synagogue which was designed in 1891 by architects Cremer & Wolffenstein.

The design idea of this neighborhood may seem to be the more purely geometrical, however it is likened to a chemical structure,[23] and in plan view to an open hand, and a leaf- therefore imparting it with metaphorical qualities.

More examples of advanced geometry in Hecker's work are the Spiral Apartment House[24] in Ramat Gan, (1981–1989), and the Heinz-Galinski-Schule[25] (1992–1995) in Berlin, noted for their high degree of complexity.

[26] The Heinz-Galinski-Schule won Zvi Hecker the Deutscher Kritikerpreis in 1995- it was stated that the decision of the jury was based on their appreciation of the "expressive geometry of his construction.

The Duisburg Jewish community center is located on a park, the Garten der Erinnerung designed by Dani Karavan.
