Housing + in Yeni Mahalle, Kayseri

At the beginning of our project, I started to design a project that would fit inside area 1. At the same time, based on the analyzes we made, I realized that the majority of the population living in the Yenimahalle region was young people and I started to design something for this. I thought that the fitness center would complement this area and I designed a fitness center for about 20 people on the ground floor. I have created green areas where people who come to the fitness center can do yoga in the fresh air and go out for fresh air. Since I realized that there is a lack of green space in Yenimahalle, I created a green courtyard with a small lake for the residents to use and have a pleasant time. I preserved the shape of the area on the ground floor and created indented design effects on the upper floors, but while doing this, I created triangular areas in order not to get away from my form. I developed my design by considering the interior plans and the façade at the same time. I wanted to add mobility to the building with triangular balconies on the south façade. In general, I wanted to keep the openings on the facades more so that bright and spacious areas are formed in the interior. At the same time, I tried to eliminate dark areas inside the building by designing full-length windows in the circulation area. It is possible to see 10 flats with different features such as 1+0, 1+1, 2+1, and 3+1 in the building.
