About Denizbank Aquarium Primary Function: Konsepsyon Enteryè Biwo
Denizbank Aquarium se yon sant inovasyon ak antreprenarya ki sitiye anndan yon syèj bank nan Istanbul. Biwo a okipe yon nivo soubasòl kote limyè lajounen limite. Panèl akoustik ki reprezante lanmè ak mouvman dlo kouvri sifas yo, epi materyèl ak teksti fè nou sonje mond anba dlo ki gen anpil koulè. Koulè ki kontras yo konbine avèk materyèl natirèl pou kreye yon espas ki vivan e ekilibre. Modil ak plafon ki ba ak gwoup chèz ki separe ajoute konfò. Yon sistèm eklerasyon imite limyè lajounen pou sipòte motivasyon ak ritm sikadyen anplwaye yo.

- 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.
