The Design

About Valiant Bostadshus

Valiant är ett bostadshus i fyra våningar beläget i stadsdelen Altintas i Antalya. Designen hämtar inspiration från de skiktade formerna hos de närliggande klipporna och deras konturlinjer. Varje bjälklag är förskjutet framåt eller bakåt med 1,20 till 2,70 meter, vilket ger skugga, avskildhet och en privat grön terrass för varje lägenhet. Konstruktionen består av en stomme i armerad betong, med högpresterande glas och glasfiberarmerade betongpaneler på fasaden. Tomten omfattar 1 154 kvadratmeter, och våningsytorna varierar mellan 275 och 400 kvadratmeter.

Production Technology: The building features a reinforced concrete frame system with high-performance glass and GFRC (Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete) panels used on the facade. The structure is articulated by shifting each floor slab forward or backward by 1.20 to 2.70 meters in all cardinal directions. This allows optimal sunlight penetration, thermal control, and enhanced visual aesthetics.
Design Challenge: The primary design challenge was to ensure that each unit had access to a private, functional green terrace while maintaining the building’s structural integrity and visual harmony. Coordinating the floor shifts to align with engineering requirements, daylight optimization, and environmental control demanded a multidisciplinary design approach.
Research: The project was developed to create a new residential typology for emerging urban zones, focusing on spatial fluidity, human scale interaction, and climate responsiveness. Research centered on achieving a delicate balance between openness and privacy, maximizing daylight while preventing overheating, and integrating landscape elements into every living unit.
Inspiration: The location is a region that stands out with its cliffs. Inspiration was taken from the layered and fluid forms of the cliffs in the contour maps. The readability of the natural topography along the sections is reflected in the facade movements and the dynamic arrangement of the horizontal plates. Each floor, just like the contour lines, protrudes at different levels, creating both an aesthetic rhythm and providing functional advantages such as shading and privacy.
Project Duration: The project will start in Antalya in July 2025 and is planned to be completed in January 2026.
Operation Flow: Each unit benefits from a private terrace, establishing a strong connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. The open layout and terrace design allow for flexible use across different seasons, while the staggered placement of floors enhances both visual interaction and privacy. This typology encourages a seamless vertical and horizontal flow that elevates the user experience.
