About Rams City Sales Office
Rams City is a sales office located in the historic district of Istanbul. The building combines arches and a central dome with a facade of concrete and steel. Precast concrete and metal framing form the arched and domed elements. A glass facade brings in natural light, while wood paneling and stone add warmth. A single tree stands at the entrance in a reinforced integrated planter. The open layout guides visitors toward the project model placed under the dome. Functional areas are integrated discreetly to protect privacy.
