The NB Haifa School of Design, named after Neri Bloomfield and formerly WIZO Canada, is a college of art located in the German Colony in downtown Haifa, Israel. It is the leading professional and academic institution for higher education in art in northern Israel. [1] [ promotional source? ] The academy's president is Dr. David Alexander.

Hirsch Architects) together with Galit Rmeo and Luciano Santandreu, winners of the design competition.

The building's interior was designed in a modern and dynamic style whereas its exterior blends with the character of other old structures in the German Colony.
