About Denizbank Aquarium Príomhfheidhm: Dearadh Intí Oifige

Is ionad nuálaíochta agus fiontraíochta é Denizbank Aquarium atá lonnaithe laistigh de cheanncheathrú banc in Iostanbúl. Tá an oifig suite ar leibhéal íoslaigh áit a bhfuil solas an lae teoranta. Clúdaíonn painéil fhuaimiúla a léiríonn gluaiseacht na farraige agus an uisce na dromchlaí, agus meabhraíonn ábhair uigithe an domhan ildaite faoin uisce. Cuirtear dathanna codarsnacha le chéile le hábhair nádúrtha chun spás beoga cothrom a chruthú. Cuireann modúil le síleálacha ísle agus grúpaí suíocháin scartha compord leis. Déanann córas soilsithe aithris ar sholas an lae chun tacú le spreagadh agus rithim chiorcáideach na bhfostaithe.

Production Technology: Contrasting colors are mixed with natural materials to create a vibrant and balanced space. Modules with low ceilings and isolated seating groups are designed to make employees feel cozier and more comfortable while increasing their sense of belonging to the company. The movement of the daylight plays an important role in the wellbeing of employees. Considering the fact that they spend majority of their day indoors for long hours; a lighting system that mimics the daylight has been designed in harmony with the motivation and circadian rhythm of the users.
Design Challenge: Office is located in under the basements, therefore daylight was so limited and that is why this project called ''Aquarium''. In office spaces lighting is the core issue due to keeping motivation high.The problem is solved with spatial planning, material choices and innovative lighting systems.
Inspiration: Inspired by the relaxing effect of the water element and the colorful and always surprising world of the sea; It is aimed to create a space that makes users feel comfortable and keeps their motivation high. From the moment you enter the aquarium, you can feel the ocean feeling on all surfaces thanks to the acoustic panels depicting the sea and water movement, textured material choices that reference the colorful world of the submarine.
Project Duration: The project started in December 2019 and finished in November 2020, and located at Denizbank HQ / Istanbul.
