The Design
About Tree 건축 디자인
이 복합 시설은 기술 스타트업을 지원하며 학습과 성장을 위한 공간을 제공합니다. 자연에서 영감을 받아 디자이너는 성장과 상호작용의 상징으로 오래된 나무를 보존했으며, 2개 층의 업무 공간과 카페를 조성했습니다. 거리 레벨 아래에서 주변 환경과 상호작용합니다. 조명과 사마 춤을 연상시키는 카페 천장, 그리고 콘크리트 파사드가 독특하며, 입구 계단의 도전적인 형태는 음표를 닮았습니다. 디자인의 각 부분은 특정한 아이디어를 담고 있으며, 디자이너는 수작업 재료와 다양한 요소를 활용하여 문화적, 미학적 매력을 강화했습니다.

- Sustainable architecture, Contextual architecture, Interaction with the surrounding environment, Birth, Growth, Tree.
- Production Technology
- The design should interact with the surrounding environment so that the structure does not initially cause problems for the user and gives a broad view of the plan. In addition to the variety of different entrances and accesses, it is like passing through stages, so as much as possible, the tree located in the center of the site is preserved, and a building with a creative form and response is designed to attract the audience as a unique work according to the needs of the client.
- Design Challenge
- The design represents dynamism and social interaction, inspired by the growth of a seed in a tree, symbolizing upward movement and spirituality and reflecting the Sufi dance. Sunlight shines through the void into the tree and manages the intense sunlight through a concrete filter on the facade. The entrance steps inspire growth. The recessed and protruding forms create an attractive and harmonious architectural environment. They invite the audience to spend time in or look at the complex.
- Research
- When designing a building with two main uses, one for general use as a coffee shop and bookstore and the other for specialized use as a digital shopping complex in a busy location, the designer considers a scenario for each part. Given the project's constraints, he uses this challenge as an opportunity and draws inspiration from the growth of that tree to, like the branches of a tree, plan the layout in terms of the type of access to each use and the use of each material and element.
- Inspiration
- The complex supports young people by eliminating office startup costs and the needs of startups. Inspired by a bud to an old tree that symbolizes growth, the building is divided into two parts: an office and a cafe below street level. Design features: a central void, a cafe roof shaped like a dance of Sama, a concrete facade that controls sunlight, and stairs inspired by musical notes that symbolize progress. Traditional Iranian tiles and handmade bricks increase attractiveness and interaction.
- Project Duration
- The design of this project began in January 2025 and finished in March 2025, in Istanbul, Turkiye.
- Operation Flow
- Buildings should be like living organisms interacting with their surroundings, especially those with public uses, in a way that invites their audience to spend some time there. This project decided to build a building that interacts with the environment, considering the client's wishes and location in a busy area. Also, the presence of a tree on the project site inspired this research, which can be preserved to design a landmark building.
