We witnessed that the Covid pandemic changed and transformed our daily life and social habits in a short time. After the pandemic, we anticipate that returning to our old normals will not be as easy as we expected, and our habits and uneasiness for 2.5 years will continue to affect the society for a while. The main purpose of the Inflating Sky project is to alleviate the pain of transition from 'new normal' to 'old normal' as much as possible and to encourage people to come together again in an open space. The structure, which consists of an inflatable structure, created a gathering area between the streets in Kadıköy with the cooperation of IBB and supported those who suffered greatly from the pandemic, and aimed to contribute to the local tradesmen by reviving the neighborhood and the district by positioning in the city. The structure, whose volume varies according to the density of people in the area, creates a perception of space by narrowing in some places and aims to limit the relationship between body and space. The transformation of the structure into an evolving diagram that continues with the human density has made the subject completely human in the structure, so that his human who enters the structure, who does not know each other, is assigned as an actor in a common game. The temporary main reason of the structure is that the transition structure acts as a catalyst after the pandemic and completes its task when the transition ends. After the temporary construction of the building, with the aim of minimum waste and recyclability, the structural waste was minimized by creating the structure with the use of air, and it was aimed to reach a structural solution in the simplest possible way to create space.

inflatable structure How can a structure be created in the simplest way while creating a space, leaving the least waste after removal? The contrast and inflatable structure created with the street allows the change of color and volume according to the number of people entering the area using technology, while choosing to create the space with the least structural element by using the air as a structural element with the membrane swelling structure.
