OZU Faculty of Design Çekmeköy İstanbul w/ Bg Mimarlık , 2018
Faculty of Architecture and Design is our latest contribution to the Ozyegin University Campus in Cekmekoy, Istanbul. After an intense design process in collaboration with ARK-itecture, our fellow design partner from Princeton, the construction of the building has been completed and the new faculty welcomed the young designers under its roof.
The building is linked to the main quad diagonally, and is seeking to project this diagonality between different functions and levels, while maintaining the dynamism on the facade. The collaborative working spaces and studios designed as open lofts offer a complete transparent and contemporary learning environment by maximising the visual contact at all times, while enabling new interactions between the landscape, the building and the people.
