Tepebaşi Science Center & Technology Museum Graduation Project Beyoğlu, Istanbul The aim of this project was to design a science and technology museum, with this idea in mind, the most suited approach for this would be futurist, for that an egg like structure was used creating elements foreign to the Tepebaşi environment, while simultaneously blending into the site, as a large building would block the view for neighbouring buildings, being generous with the surrounding environment of the building, an underground solution was found with the help of the slope of the site, so the building was pushed underground.


1

Vehicle circulation around site

1

if a large building is place on site, neighbourhood view is disturbed, so the museum should be lower in order to respect its surrounding context 1

Pedestrian space expanded to create more circulation space

1

Pedestrian circulation and axis from Istiklal boulevard to site

1

With the museum being dug into the topography, the surrounding context is no longer disturbed

1

More divisions created in order to utilize the site as a public space, which wil be accessible to users of all ages

1

View of Haliรง from buildings surrounding site

1

Pedestrian axis brought into site to lead people towards the view of Haliรง,as the site will serve as a terrace to the Beyoฤ lu district

1

Shape created to compliment circulation throughout the site and the purpose of the museumusing egg like elements to create a futuristic feel

Zero House Competition Project House in Forest Site: Conceptual As the site was conceptual, in order to create a heavenly like environment, the best option was to create a cliffside environment overlooking a small lake,within a forest with an extremely dense green space. With this the Zero House was created, merging it and it’s user into its environment.


- Site topography.

- When building placed as illustrated, along riverside, it shows only a connection with the river but not with the lake or the topography.

- Building pushed into topography to create harmony

- Building moved to create more of a connection

with both the topography and the surrounding trees.

with the lake, but still lacks connection with topography.

Building harmonised with surrounding, and pathways extended to create more of a connection with the forest trees and river.

The Shifting House

Competition Project Archsharing 2017 Ometosando, Tokyo, Japan Being so closely located to Omotesando, one of Tokyo’s most valued shopping districts, the most suited client to serve would be an independent fashion designer along with his family, with this came the concept of “The Shifting House”. Since the client is an artist, the form of the dwelling should reflect his characteristics, this is done by the creation of a playful and colorful facade, enriched with multiple geometrical forms, which in return lighten the grey tone of the surrounding context.


Extruded the plot upwards

Created protrusion at entrance in order to extend an indoor treehouse for client’s child

Extrusion smoothed to contrast the entire ridge form

Creation of several smooth shapes to create rhythm and to serve as a natural light source

Final result. Similar shapes to form added to create balance

Experimental Playground Urban Design Project Gokturk, Istanbul Just like every developing area outside the city of Istanbul, Gokturk is keen on building gated communities, seperating people and creating no social interaction, the aim of this project was to break down the boarders between these communities, and create a public space, not only for children but for people of all ages. The experimental playground of Gokturk serves to bring people together with it interactive and lively environment.
