About Celestone Ionad Taisbeanaidh

Tha an talla taisbeanaidh ag amas air àrainneachd a chruthachadh a tha eadar-dhealaichte bho àrainneachd gailearaidh traidiseanta. Tha am pròiseact seo an dùil ath-mhìneachadh a dhèanamh air a' cheangal eadar ealain agus an saoghal nàdarra. A' coileanadh dreuchd mar àite taisbeanaidh agus àite sòisealta, tha an t-àite a' leudachadh a thaisbeanaidhean a-steach do àrainn cafaidh aon-fhillte. Faodaidh luchd-tadhail eadar-obrachadh le obraichean ealain digiteach fhad 's a tha iad ag òl no a' tighinn còmhla le caraidean. A' cothlamadh bòidhchead nàdarra le sgrìonaichean, tha am pròiseact a' tabhann àrainneachd far a bheil ealain agus nàdar a' coinneachadh.

Unique Properties: Inspired by various rock and stone forms found in nature, wall textures and seating areas were created. The idea that gives the pendant lamps their shape is the crystalline structures found in mines. The pink tree used in the space was used as a reflection of all colors, considering its compatibility with the concept.
Dimensions & Packaging: The area consists of a cafe and an exhibition hall. The exhibition hall and cafe are approximately 600 m2 in total and the ceiling height is 8 metres. The cafe and the exhibition hall are separated from each other by ribbed frosted glass partitions. The lighting system used in the exhibition hall is also applied in the cafe.

Production Technology: The seating elements in the project are made of concrete material and the panels used on the wall are made of wood material with stone surface. Ceiling pendant lights are also made of wooden material and the material on the floor is black microcement. The screens consist of two parts, one on the ceiling and one on the wall. Flexible screen material type is used.
Design Challenge: Bringing stones and crystals to a common ground with other elements in a hall for a digital art exhibition was a challenging enough process. The space took its final form with touches of both colour and texture
Research: This design is based on the concept of natural life. In this project, there is observation and inspiration from nature. It is a project that emerged as a result of a research that is possible by travelling, seeing and feeling. At the same time, technologically popular ai adds a different vitality to the spaces. It has been prepared on a ground where digital art technology is also used.
Inspiration: The idea came from the belief that as the world goes digital, nature should be included in this transformation. At this point, some elements of nature were used to make digital exhibition spaces feel more natural.
Project Duration: The project is designed from April 2024 to October 2024 in İstanbul.
Operation Flow: It is an exhibition space designed mainly for the exhibition of digital arts. The exhibition screen also continues in the cafe area. In this way, people can enjoy the exhibition while having a drink or sitting with their friends. The concrete seating elements in the exhibition area allow a large number of people to watch the performances together.
