The largest entrance is at the junction point where Büyükdere and the road that comes from Gültepe are connected.
The program of the structure does not include any commercial functions as it aims to offer people the opportunity to enjoy free time without spending money. Because the shopping centers on the Büyükdere axis have already changed people's perception of public space. Public areas of Levent District have become "money spending-focused places" without any green area.
The area is also designed as a transition point. It connects the streets of Levent, Gültepe, Büyükdere Street and Levent Bazaar.
The garden is made with triangulation in order to integrate the shape of itself with the shell of the structure.
The concept of the structure is “3 stages attached to a rock” which allows a path going under them to make people watch workshops.
Circulation is predominantly from the side near the shell.
Someone who looks at the structure from BĂźyĂźkdere Street side can see the interior only through a few openings, which triggers curiosity.
On the garden side, the aim is transforming the structure into a vitrine which makes people sit in the garden and watch the entire program.

In the analysis of KozyataÄ&#x;Äą Neighborhood, it is observed that the neighbor relations are really weak and no one knows anyone that lives around. Because the old site was a gated community. Therefore, a low-rise with open circulation block type wi is proposed and the blocks are positioned close enough to make maximum people see each other. All the entrances are facing the open circulation and they are available to be used as sitting areas in order to make people say hi to each other when they are passing by. The blocks are receiving light from the stairways and elevator spaces between them. A large green area is located in the northern part of the site, and a high block standing in the middle which has closed circulation and mainly consists of apartments for 2 individuals. Unlike the blocks designed for families with open circulation, this block is designed more for students and for couples without children.

The limited spatial typologies of houses that we are living in today’s age which are imposed on us become forced, therefore prescribing how we should live rather than unlocking the various spatial possibilities that may become available for a variety of users. The aims of this project are to create a cohesive understanding between private and common spaces, which allows for social gathering, as well as localised privacy. Through the inspiration of Alvaro Siza, many discrete entrances catalyze the experience in the house.

This exhibition displayed emerging technologies, the ways in which they will affect our lives in the near future, and what choices we have as citizens, to influence their development. The agency of Andres Jaque gives the exhibition its distinctive saturated look with panels of polycarbonate plastic.
For this project, AndrĂŠs Jaque and his agency are transforming the ground floor of the foundation into an active site for the exhibition's public program. In keeping with the modularity of the building, Jaque imagines a flexible structure that will be transformed during three months of the exhibition to host lectures, performances, and symposiums. It is conceived as a lively meeting point.

The foundation took over the 16th century church of San Lorenzo as a permanent base for the annual programming in exchange of the resumption of the tab for renovation. Model of the church and the proposals
The agency of Andres Jaque is in charge of proposing an intervention for creating a space which is able to interact with society. The purpose is to have a flexible model, which can be installed in several exhibition venues around the world. Platforms are the key elements of the project. These elements avoid the impact on the church.
The architectural concept of the competition project was based primarily on the city of Şanlıurfa -one of the first cities established after the Biblical Flood which is also known as “City of Prophets”- and was fed from all of Southeastern Anatolia. Sou Our priority in our design decisions was to have the units proportional to each other and to understand the flow between them. This decision was followed by the selection and use of local materials as a result of cultural, geographical and historical research on the Southeastern Anatolia Region. Local materials such as limestone-based "Urfa Nahit Stone" which is a part of city's distinctive fabric and basalt stone combined to create the struc ture. While these two materials were used in a classical manner, a modern interpretation was put on the structure by blending them with aluminum joinery and glass.
The minaret was raised from the pool designed between the mosque and the courtyard and it was referred to the Savaşan Köyü Mosque minaret, which was submerged for dam construc tion in Halfeti where is one of the symbols of Southeastern Anatolia.
The layout of the buildings was based on the Arabic letter “vav”, and the landscape was shaped by circular geometry which means "eternity" in Islam.
In order to increase the accessibility of the mosque, entrances with ramps and stairs were made at many points. In their design, the ease of use of elderly and disabled people was taken into consideration.

In order to create a mosque typology that can be used in its compact form at normal times and can be expandable during the holidays and Friday prayers; three revolving doors were proposed, which are combining the narthex and the mosque when needed. The seven columns, which are carriying the women's section and the eaves of the narthex, also aiming to direct people to the entrance of the mosque, symbolize the seven prophets who set foot in Şanlıurfa.
It was aimed to increase the popularity of women in the mosque. The entrance to the Women's section was inspired by the classic Urfa house typology, with an outside staircase, and a terrace garden was created right here.

The site is located on the roof of Seoul Hall of Urbanism and Architecture. The building consists of the 3 floors that are buried into the ground with an elevated roof of 3 meters above ground, giving the rooftop, “Seoul Maru”, a unique and new perspective of the city. The building is surrounded with historical landmarks, government buildings and it is the center of the business district. The task of the competition was to design an installation that will stand there for 6 months during the architectural biennial. We offered a structure on the roof called “Pressed Protest” that gathers people from all different walks wa of life. It enables them to express themselves through using the structure to create different activities for themselves such as; doing sports, relaxing, reading and in the created courtyard; seeing an exhibiton, listening to street musicians etc.

With the high levels of plastic waste in South Korea, it is crucial to take advantage of such a prime location in order to bring awareness to the crisis. South Korea is one of the world’s largest plastic consumers, with the largest garbage pile being in Uiseong reaching a weeping 15m high. The build-up of plastic waste in the region has caused many environmental and health issues. Due to the site being in a central location and across from Seoul City Hall it is an opportunity to be taken to construct a silent protest against the country’s habits. The project “Pressed Protest” is a form of awareness and a protest to the issue. To construct the project, a white metal structure has integrated vital elements of pressed recycled plastic such p as the platforms and the shading sheets.
