STRATEGIC MASTERPLAN FOR ELBİSTAN Type Location Year About Collaboration
Development, Urban Design Elbistan, Kahramanmaraş - Turkey 2016 Development of the vacant historical center of the city Urban Studies Lab Team - ÇEKÜL Foundation
CULTURAL REVITALIZATION OF THE HISTORICAL CENTER The aim of the guide for Elbistan was to create a development strategy that will affect the whole city scale by establishing links between different development areas around the city center while preserving the historical and cultural urban fabric, especially by revitalizing the ruined old city center. With minimum intervention how to maximize the impact through the identified strategies and recommendations? In Elbistan’s context, first the strategies were determined, second, the intervention areas were chosen within the framework of these strategies and some specific project areas were selected. In order to protect/reconstruct the urban fabric surrounding the city center, some rules and strategic principles were generated. The loss of historical architecture cannot be brought back, but it is foreseen that city vacancies can be transformed into re-usable, active public spaces for the citizens. City Circulation Artery

WHAT IS AN URBAN DESIGN GUIDE? FLYERS FOR MUNICIPALITIES Type Location Year About
Design Codes, Urban Design TKB Conferences, Turkey 2018 Informative flyers about Urban Design Guides in Turkey, case studies Collaboration Urban Studies Lab Team - ÇEKÜL Foundation
FLYERS DISTRIBUTED DURING TKB CONFERENCES The aim of this flyer is to inform municipalities about local identity preservation in emerging cities and how to manage it. This document helps to define urban planning step by step associating it with different scale plans and stakeholders. The idea is to introduce urban design guides as a manual or “prescription” for cities, neighborhoods, public spaces or streets. With this flyer the municipalities are invited to learn about design guides and search about executed cases in local and international scale. The informative flyer contains topics like: - Definition of an Urban Design Guide - Why do we need an Urban Design Guide? - What does the Turkish Legislation say about the Urban Design Guide? - Types of Urban Design Guides - The Urban Design Guide’s process - Who are the stakeholders of an Urban Design Guide? - Case studies in Turkey - Resources and Links

Boutique Hotel, Interior Design İstanbul - Turkey 2015 Interior design for private and common spaces in a hotel building Mert Eyiler, Işıl Günak, Hande Köksal - MEMA/ve/Mert Eyiler Architect Studio
KALAMIŞ MARINE HOTEL: LOCATED IN THE ENTRANCE OF A MARINA A boutique hotel project with 39 rooms located on Kalamış coastal road in Istanbul’s Anatolian side. Positioned at the entrance of an international marina, the proximity to the historical peninsula with a boat, and opened to all kind of client were important design decisions affecting the concept process of the project. A five-floor hotel with 33 standard rooms, 6 attic rooms, a restaurant, reunion rooms, a spa and lobby areas were designed. For material mockups and furniture, it was important to use details that reminded boats and sails. Metal contours for the armatures, wooden floors, light and shadow interaction, comfortable and stylish spaces were the priority design principles. Lucid’s interior concept process was the product of a 4 months collaboration between architects and interior architects.The site construction process is still continuing.

PAVILION FOR THE ABBADIA CASTLE Type Location Year About Collaboration
Pavilion, Architecture Hendaye (Basque Country) - France 2012 Competition, finalist (Castle designed by Violet-Le-Duc) Christophe Hutin, Maindi Murua Berra Christophe Hutin Architecture
INFORMATION PAVILION BEFORE VISITING THE CASTLE The Abbadia Castle, designed by Viollet Le Duc in the 18th century, overlooks the Atlantic Ocean along Hendaye’s coast. The castle, which has a spectacular view towards the Spanish border, was built according to certain coordinates as requested by a professor; Antoine d’Abbadie. He was an avid astronomer and map-drawing enthusiast has spent years researching the world’s axis and curvature. From his observatory, he defined some important axes, leading to precise points such as the hill of Rhune Mountain. For that, he demanded to Viollet Le Duc to add some cylindrical hollows which pierced all the walls of the castle to not block the axes. Every year 40 thousand tourists visit the Abbadia Castle, an additional space was in need to receive the visitors. The aim of an architectural competition held by the Municipality was to provide a small pavilion of 200 m2 where visitors could have information before the visits, a waiting lounge, a souvenir shop, toilets and snack areas. A risky decision was made during the design process. A different place was chosen for the project and meanwhile, the technical jury’s decision was totally reconsidered. Instead of the competition’s chosen area, a ruined area which was situated under the castle’s topography line was more accurate to us. It was a worthed decision; giving priority to the sensitivities of Antoine d’Abbadia to not interrupt the observation axes set by him, to preserve the silhouette of the shoreline, and to capture the spectacular view to the ocean. The project was very debated, but not enough to win, second prize was our merit dough.

FAMILY HOUSES FOR SINGLES Type Location Year About
Social Hotel, Kortejos İzmir - Turkey 2012 Graduation Project (A - Mention Trés Bien) Renovation of a historical family house occupied by men workers only Collaboration Habitants of the Hotel: Saray, Sarı İbo, Mersedes Ali, Zappo Gürsel, Mehmet, Ali, the cats Birol Üzmez (Photographer) “Kortejo: Aile Evleri” photo exhibition Canan Altınbulak (Film Director) Short Film Link: Secret Garden of the City
HABITANTS OF MANİSA AKHİSAR HOTEL IN KEMERALTI The life and the culture established around a courtyard is the architectural heritage of Jewish immigrants in Izmir. The word “kortejo” in Jewish means courtyard and is translated to “family houses” in Turkish. The master project consists to renovate the Manisa Akhisar Hotel located in the center of İzmir next to Kemeraltı Bazaar and the historical Agora of the city. This hotel is an old family house with 42 rooms. Each of the 8 m2 room opens onto a courtyard full of trees and cats. The hotel accepts only men; seasonal workers, abandoned people, old people, young alone people, love afflicted people and promise to take them under its wings for only 7.5 Liras per night. The goal of this project is to measure the hotel’s capacity. “Can we save both the building and its residents with minimal intervention, without resorting to destruction?” “A social architecture is it possible?” “At what cost the kortejos will be lost for the sake of urban transformation?” “What kind of future is planned for these people?”
