Etimesgut Sugar Factory is one of the most important facilities that contributed Turkey’s sugar production for years. In time, with the changes in technology and market needs, the sugar factory will eventually face the danger of losing its function. The factory area is an important industrial heritage from the early republican period, so it has an important place in the city memory. Also; if the area lose its function, it has a potential to be reclaimed as a public space for Ankara.

Objective
Refunctioning the Industrial Heritage; Etimesgut Sugar Factory Area as a Music Academy
Studio Coordinator

Prof. Dr. Nur Çağlar
Within the process of re-programming the industrial area, the objective: music school may not be enough to create an urban space which is acknowledged by the citizens. Therefore, the project is trying to create an urban campus that will have interactions with the city dwellers to meet the critical need of public space in Ankara. By renovating the area into a contemporary public space, the heritage will also get the chance to be recognized by citizens. To cooperate with the city; an extroverted campus design is thought to be more proper rather than an isolated campus order. A secondary axis is added to the area to serve as a binding ribbon between the programs and to make the area accessible by public. Lastly, the platform underneath the ribbon strenghtens all relations at the same time creating new interaction points with the area.
ribbonize Conceptualizing the Axis Industrial campuses were planned to meet the social needs of factory workers and their families, as the factories had been established outside the city center and were isolated from cities. To keep the sense of the area, the general masterplan is desired to be protected. That is why some of the buildings have been preserved and refunctionalized. A secondary axis is added to the area from a dierent layer as a reinterpretation of the removed axis on the ground.

The Music Academy is designed inside the Machine Factory which is located in the factory campus. The axis passes through the evacuated third hall of the factory to form a public intersection point. The modular design of the factory's construction style which is for creating large space in short amount of time was the main inspiration for creating the academy's concept design for the sake of preserving industrial feature of the area. Therefore the old and the new structure combined and programs integrated to them.

Some of the school programs are thought to be open to public use as well, to create a dynamic relationship between the city and the campus (instrument museum, cafes, library, performance halls and garden). Thus majority of these places located on the west blocks in order to control the circulation easily. On the east blocks of the school, silent and loud classrooms and performance halls are placed.

When we look at the Sedhiou region, it is seen that climatic conditions play an important role in urban life and space formation. Also cultural and belief systems have a big influence on organizing these spaces and urban life. In this context, cultural center design has been dealt with in the context of urban tectonics and actions organizing space in the city. To ensure cultural survival, it is intended to create an urban space idea where the locals can come together to resume these shared exchanges and reorganize the space with different actions.

Observation is a perpetual activity neither starts in a specific time or space nor stops another. It is a perception which goes on prolongedly as long as one exists. Although the observation proceeds all over the topography, it is cut by the field on adverse slope between the castle and the path. In this design, it is intended to provide a continuous observation; as if changing a rough stone in the floor the arrangements ought to be considered as a part of the topography. Connected to the existing path between the church and the castle the design is shaped as a monolithic floor. The upper surface of this upholstery acts as an observation deck and aimed to emphasize the main topic: the sky and observation. It is desired to strengthen this situation with the sky tunnel (a preparation process including sky maps and other training materials) that is connected with the cradle . Since the observation is supposed to be the main focus, the remaining spaces are compressed into this thick upholstery. Circulation of whole is provided from two large courtyards. The solid design gets the light by courtyards and sky rips on the floor. The space organized as an open plan which is arrranged with the diversive walls and vegetation. Because it is thought as a part of the topography and should be a sustainable design, rammed earth for the walls and hempcrete for the upholstery are preferred as the materials.

The two main goals for the design were avoiding any conventianal building types and re-creating the old urban typology of Bahçelievler by reviving public green connections with the neighbourhood on level 0. With the help of local, easily accesible and inexpensive materials; a modular building design that changes and adapts were created. By using fruit boxes to create modules like lego pieces, we aimed spaces which adapts to changes of neccessities in a FabLAB. Former spaces created based on ideal lightings according to the solar analysis. In other respects, design separates the building and the ground in order to contact with the back gardens tend to be forgotten in the neighbourhood. South and west façades have lots of hanged ivies that can help to save some heating energy. The modularity of this design touches the idea of flexible, participative and therefore inspirational places.

Great stories are always told by someone else. Because the protagonist always believed in the story so much that they could not come to an idea of the peril or the beauty of their stories. -
Phase 1 If someone doesn't know anything outside the house, where can the person go? These people don't know anything except their so called ‘home’. They should go home. Whatever it takes. Where's the house? They do not know.

What do they know? Nothing. They just realize that it is important for them to walk between these grotesque streets without making any trouble and in the meanwhile to respond positively to the physical and mental modification attempts that will preapere them for ‘home’.
