GAD: gtk gokturk residences, istanbul

gtk gokturk residences by GAD

GAD (global architectural development) have created the gtk gokturk residences, istanbul. the intent of the project was twofold; one was to create modern living spaces and the second was to challenge the typical modernist housing blocks that consume most the suburban landscape of istanbul. consequently, this strategy introduces a new residential typology to the area. a process of deforming the typical block is used with various software techniques. input data directed the forms to response to programmatic and contextual needs.

the residential complex has 3 individual buildings with a total of 13,000m and a ground level park/green zone as community space.

the project was developed in collaboration with dara kirmizitoprak.
