Production Technology: The project is an office space designed to meet the needs of employees in a single space. Open work areas, social zones, meeting rooms and relaxation corners are located together, and a warm and energetic atmosphere is provided with corporate colors, natural materials and plants. The space has a flexible, functional and aesthetic arrangement for collaboration, productivity and relaxation.
Design Challenge: The mechanical infrastructure envisaged within the building was compatible with the direction of light and sun in a glass-fronted structure, providing a significant advantage in the fight against mechanical systems. In particular, there was a greater cooling requirement in areas with intense sunlight, while the cooling requirement was lower on the north side, which did not receive sunlight. These different needs created an effective approach to balancing the internal distribution of the mechanical system. This experience provided important experience in solving mechanical problems in high-rise buildings with glass facades.
Research: The project has an elliptical form and a completely glass facade. A design approach was adopted that aims to benefit from daylight in the most efficient way while also reducing the negative effects of the sun. Extraordinary sea views met with social areas and some meeting rooms. The team's rest areas were placed on the south facade of the building, taking advantage of this view and allowing multi-purpose work at the same time. This arrangement was planned after our detailed exploration.
Located on the 21st floor, the office not only connects with green areas remotely, but also integrates with the work areas and integrates natural texture and living plants with a biophilic design. While this approach created peace and tranquility in the office, it also shaped the design language in a positive way.
Inspiration: Colgate Türkiye office was implemented with a design approach that reflects the brand's values of freshness and trust, supporting collaboration while also responding to individual needs. The idea of creating a functional, warm and energetic environment inspired the project.
Project Duration: Project start date: June 6 2024 Project end date: November 4 2024
Istanbul, Turkey
Operation Flow: The project aimed to reflect the brand's values of freshness, trust and health into the space. A warm, energetic and functional atmosphere was created with the color palette, natural textures and light play; Flexible spaces are designed to meet both social and individual needs. With this approach, the office has been shaped not only as a working space but also as a space of experience.
