About Azura Frame Taobh a-staigh Oifis Chorporra
Bidh solas nàdarra an latha a' tighinn a-steach don àite-obrach tro thrì aghaidhean glainne, a' cruthachadh àrainneachd shàmhach agus aonaichte. Tha am plana cumadh-U a' cur sheirbheisean agus stòraidh aig a' chridhe, a' cumail an iomaill fosgailte airson solais, seallaidhean agus cuairteachaidh. Tha rioban preasan gorm bog leantainneach, air a bhrosnachadh le dearbh-aithne chorporra na companaidh, a' stiùireadh gluasad agus a' falach dhleasachaidhean goireis. Tha darach nàdarra a' cothromachadh na pailhead dhathan, fhad 's a tha glainne lùbte, uaine agus sgaraidhean leth-shoilleir a' gleidheadh leantalachd lèirsinneach fhad 's a tha iad a' toirt taic do cho-obrachadh, sùbailteachd agus math-shlàinte.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- Within Natura Yapi’s Istanbul headquarters, the design fuses facade-inspired elements with refined interior craft. Curved glass partitions, mesh-metal profiles, vertical wooden slats and sculptural seating benches echo facade skeletons, while decorative dividers and line-patterned accessories add rhythmic depth. Warm wood flooring and furniture counterpoint the cool corporate blue, while strategic dark zones and natural plants add vitality, turning technical rigor into an inviting, timeless workspace.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The office covers 350 m2 net area, including a 33 m2 executive office, 148 m2 open and enclosed work zones, and 45 m2 guest lounge for meetings with meeting rooms and a mini terrace. Glass partitions define work areas, while the executive office and wet zones use full gypsum-board walls for acoustic and privacy needs. Separate male/female restrooms and a hidden server room are integrated. Light-blue wall claddings double as concealed storage.

- Production Technology
- All solid doors, except glass partitions, were built with a flush (frameless) door system, creating uninterrupted wall continuity and modern elegance. This solution required meticulous substructure craftsmanship and hidden framing, making its precise technical setup a key highlight of the project. By preserving pure lines while ensuring durability and acoustic performance, it reinforces the facade-inspired architectural clarity.One executive office features Magic Glass technology, allowing its glass partition to switch from clear to frosted for instant privacy.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was to create a cohesive interior within a volume where three facades are fully glazed and solid walls are scarce. The plan concentrates wet areas, technical room, hidden storage and corridors around the core, while cafe bar, lounge, mini terrace and meeting rooms line the facade to capture daylight and natural airflow. Open and semi-transparent partitions define spaces, and precise detailing ensures a strong unity between the social perimeter and the calm work core.
- Research
- This project is grounded in qualitative design research aimed at creating a functional yet inspiring corporate interior. Objectives included maximizing natural light, fostering intuitive circulation, and balancing concentrated, minimal workspaces with diverse and welcoming guest areas. Site analysis, material studies and staff interviews informed a U-shaped plan where calm work zones contrast with a cafe-bar, mini terrace, comfortable lounge and meeting rooms, supporting efficient external meetings and a distinctive brand experience.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by Natura Yapı’s mastery in contemporary facades and the quiet strength of its corporate blue, the design seeks to turn the dialogue between structure and nature into an interior language. The idea of inside echoing outside shaped the concept: mesh-metal profiles and delicate vertical lines recall the skeleton of modern facades, while soft fabrics, sculptural art curves, and living greenery temper their precision. The result is more than an office; a spatial narrative where material, light and color embody innovation, sustainability and serene elegance.
- Project Duration
- The project started in February 2023 and finished in August 2023 in Istanbul Turkiye
- Operation Flow
- Well-planned functional zones, calm hues and balanced contrasts shape a warm, sophisticated atmosphere that fosters focus. In a Ushaped plan, soft-blue cabinetry lines the corridor as hidden storage and a guiding ribbon, while a slim mesh ceiling defines direction. At the center, a lounge with cafe bar seating and a mini terrace forms a social core distinct from work areas, as curved glass and greenery soften spatial transitions.
