- Production Technology
- The structure resting on the bearing bases of arch or semi-arch character has been conceptualized as reinforced concrete or steel construction.
- Design Challenge
- In the beginning, the design was a little bit different. When we discussed the static and current cost of the building, we realized that we have to make little changes unless affecting the philosophy of the design. As a result, the semi arch structure was decided.
- Project Duration
- The design process took approximately 3 months. The project is waiting for investors.
- Research
- This design is actually integrated with nature with the used materials and the philosophy of design. Therefore, design has minimal effect on nature but harmony with nature.
- Inspiration
- The idea actually comes from the sunflower. I always have an interest in them. They follow the sun during the day rotating their faces to their precious. This project was born from that idea. The design and the rotating specification of the project integrates with nature from that aspect.

After building it, to live in with my wife.
The design process took approximately 3 months.
One day, an inspiration came by and I suddenly started sketching.
Field of Flower is not built, yet. I want to sell the project to an investor to be built.
Just the a silhouette blinked in my mind. I can simply call it Inspiration
Actually not
The customers who have esthetic concerns and want to live in a unique design like that.

Where the design idea was born, namely flower.
First of all my inspiration and my skills, then my hands and a caligraphy pen, after all a 3D modelling software

I worked with a civil engineer for the static prospect.
If a customer wants, the mechanism is capable of rotating 360 degrees a day. This specification requires a cutting-edge technology.
In the beginning, the design was a little bit different. When we discussed the static and current cost of the building, we realized that we have to make some little changes unless affecting the philosophy of the design. As a result, the semi arch structure was decided.
I have believed that my design is unique and universal. In addition, I have received possitives feedbacks from the society, my friends and collagues. So I decided that my design deserves an international award.
Following your inspiration leads you to success.
