turkish GAD (global architectural development) firm have sent in images of their project
'atakoy shopping center', istanbul, done in collaboration with dara kirmizitoprak.
currently under construction, the 25,000m² center will provide a contemporary and alternate
option to the shopping experience. the new center takes advantage of its urban location
and injects the area with a larger sense of urban renewal.

the architectural strategy works with the building’s facade which performs as a variation of
alternating surfaces. the façade responds differently based on north, south, east and west
coordinates. the urban fabric on these coordinates also varies from residential, commercial,
to urban infrastructure.
