Mavi Proje has grown into a respected regional and international design practice with expertise in a wide variety of building types. Our work comprises planning, architecture, interior design, strategic facilities planning for relocations and renovation and expansion of existing facilities. Central to our approach is the principle of generating design to fit the specific needs of people. Our practice diversity and talent offers the creativity, knowledge, and technological insight to ensure customized design solutions that are responsive both to aesthetic and functional requirements. We offer our clients unique benefits that come from our experience and knowledge of global resources. Our design approach starts with an open
dialog with each client that, at the outset of a project, helps define client objectives for the environment and reveals the design challenge. During project development, feedback from our client helps us add appropriate details and stay true to our objectives as we refine our creative solution. Ultimately, we believe the success of a design solution is measured by the degree to which it improves our client’s business performance. We have become specialists in finding creative and unique solutions for the most difficult budgets and programs. Careful consideration is given to the appropriateness of design choices in terms of context, program and construction. We are known as architects who link exceptional design with time
and budget concerns. The quality of a project is not necessarily related to how much it costs, but rather to how wisely the resources of time and money are spent. We believe in simplicity, which results in flexibility in use and economy in cost. Cost management and life cycle building cost is of great importance. In pursuit of this mission, we are guided by the following ideals: Sustaining mutually beneficial client relationships, Providing design services which encompass creativity, diversity and value added results, Offering guidance through professional leadership and experience. 5

interior design The HaydarpaĹ&#x;a Dormitory was planned to be modern, practical and cozy -a place where the student could feel at home. Economic aspects and considerations of durability shaped the design decisions and material selections. Completely demountable loft units were designed which to be used alternatively as bunk beds or studies. Stainless steel structures and laminated solid wood paneling were used to obtain durable, long life furniture. 48

A cafe-restaurant in Ankara. The project was to create a new and more contemporary identity for a modest pastry shop. Light colors and stainless steel elements are used to accentuate freshness and hygiene for this facility which provides service from the early hours of the morning to late at night. To be up to date with today’s lifestyle, TV screens are placed in various locations, including the rest rooms. The relatively small inner space serves as a showroom while the garden becomes the main space for sitting and dining. A long green shrub wall surrounds the terrace sheltered by a large white awning where many flower-pots emphasize the garden atmosphere. There are various sitting arrangements such as tables for two people or for groups, high tables for fast service and large armchairs for longer stops. The main idea was to create a homelike cozy space. Art Nouveau style flower patterns in bright colors are used both for the corporate identity and as a dominant decorative component. 59

an office in almaty almaty/kazakhstan facade redesign
The structure was only a concrete framework before the design. The sole application was an appropriate cover. To ensure that it would not go unnoticed within the city’s commercial core, we wanted the building to have a straight, clean, effective and well- balanced composition. With this in mind, a grid was applied to display the two stories as one and create a uniform image. The bright white color and the simplicity of the structure makes it noticeable and distinguishable on an urban scale and keeps the building in mind.

A group of buildings to be built at the entrance of a large settlement for the administration of Northern Iraq containing government, reception and hospitality services. We understood that these buildings were to embody and represent a modern outlook for the developing government agencies and create a forceful impression as such. With this in mind, the structure was aimed to dominate the site as well as integrate within the natural environment. Although the main structure has a withdrawn layout, the curvilinear stationing of the other structures stylizes the unbroken natural flow of the design.

sulamani college of veterinary medicine iraq architectural concept design The local tradition of “wall architecture� is mainly interpreted within the design. The buildings are combined by walls, and semi open sheltered streets so the relationship between buildings becomes clearer. Compact design is carried out as the principal method. Thus closer relations are also provided with other buildings. The buildings are fully protected from western and eastern sunlight. The curved wall constitutes an ample courtyard that absorbs sunlight in the morning. The wall also combines the buildings as an abstract sculpture specially when seen from the main road and the entrance.

The ceilings of the corridors are left in concrete and framed with white clean gypsum borders. Classrooms are divided by glass screens above concrete block walls to provide daylight for the corridors. 100
The partition walls curve gently to form cavities for sittig and help to create a live, dynamic area instead of a straight, long corridor. Classroom doors are transformed into a transition space, to give a distinct identity to each classroom. 101

almaty international school kazakhstan
architectural design This complex contains a primary school and a high school with all their supplementary facilities. The entrance is designed to be a public square. The rest of the land is a fragmented garden, providing a private space for each outdoor activity and each age group. Three classrooms of the same grade are separated into groups. Each cluster is self contained and has various common elements such as WC, community room, recess area and an outdoor playground. Each cluster is distinct from the others and has a unique identity. The main spine holds the common functions such as laboratories, cafeteria, library sports hall, meeting hall and branches out to form the multifunction group halls.

(state airports authority)
headquarters ankara
interior concept design & facade redesign The project aims to complete the missing functional parts of an existing civil building and to update and improve its visual quality. Since the building to which it is attached was originally built for a different purpose, the necessary functional additions could not be included within the existing architecture. Moreover, the modern image intended for the building could not be implemented by a change in decoration and such same solutions. We wanted to provide visitors arriving at the institution with a spacious, large and well air conditioned lounge. A solution that would easily bring together various waiting, meeting, inspectional and informational functions was outlined. The newly built extension was to have a preparatory function for the main building. A glass roof was placed on the ceiling plane over the central main area with a wooden pergola below to obtain a well illuminated and a half open space effect. The public building was designed symmetrically and decisively to accentuate continuity.

primeclass lounge &vip lounge georgia interior design

The comfort of home within an airport was envisioned. Wide comfortable furniture together with soothing relaxing colors such as white and gray were used to have a calming effect on the traveller. The conventional use of dark colored furniture especially to hide dirt in public spaces, was abandoned. Instead, light colored furniture was used to create an atmosphere of freshness cleanness. The use of natural materials such as metal and wood, differentiates it from the usual artificial impression of other airports. The linear false ceiling with an interiorly illuminated ceiling curtain is a decorational trick to emphasize the main circulation axis. The ceiling also helps to adjust the scale of the space.

est granaries and has the world’s largest fields. Agriculture is becoming the major concern of city commerce. John Deere, being the greatest brand, undertakes to form a devoted community of buyers. The showroom building is thought to be the main instrument in forming a brand awareness . The circular showroom building welcomes customers with a wide glass entrance over a gently sloping outdoor exhibition area. The yellow wall divides the site into two: front section for customers and back section for production and storage where only staff will work. This wall touches all the back buildings and provides office spaces and technical rooms for support functions.
113
The showroom consists of a central hall which is designed as an art gallery and exhibits machinery surrounded by a conference hall, a coffee shop and sellers offices and overlooks a large workshop that allows customers to watch their machinery during repair. The showroom is also overlooked by sharp triangle shaped galleries of supplementary functions. This space has a star shaped glass ceiling and a large span of 60 meters emphasizing the high-tech position of the John Deere company.

The stylization of the mountains in the south of the campus is used for the main conception of the faculty buildings. The abstract plastic form of the buildings’ façade is aimed to incite and develop the student’s imagination. An enclosed street is created as a social common area for the 8 faculties; amphitheater-classrooms are located within this social area together with cafeterias, shops, student clubs and other common functions.

PHASES OF INTERIOR DESIGN The architect receives the employer’s requests and presents relevant proposals by conducting a preliminary meeting. In this phase, the level of quality is determined according to the user profile and operational requirements. If the enterprise has operational objectives for the future, these are laid out. The decoration theme is determined with the participation of the employer. A. Concept: Examples suitable to the determined theme form the preliminary design boards. These should be suitable to the requirements determined by preliminary work. The spatial impact can be understood by experiencing the material and furniture examples on these design boards. Interior operation is roughly provided through color rendered plans and sketches, and submitted to the employer’s approval. B. Design Development Phase: Decoration and furniture layout plans, colored design boards and elevations are prepared to evaluate the suitability for operational necessities. The furniture level is also determined at this phase according to the facility levels. By checking the furniture prices, etc., it is ensured
that the project complies with the general budget figures. Decisions are finalized prior to application and fabrication projects by submitting to the approval of the employer.
