A vacation residence within an olive grove offering activities such as gourmet dining, olive oil and art workshops, connecting users to local culture and landscape. The buildings are arranged in clusters, preserving existing olive trees. Two pools, forming “water courtyards”, at different levels connect residential and communal areas. Using Sarımsak stone, wood, and glass, along with green roofs, the design ensures energy efficiency and integration with nature while respecting the context.

Project 2 — THE GRID GLAMPING IN THE FOREST
Turkey Sector: Public Rezidential. Hotels · 2027
Located on a 16.13-hectare forested site, The Grid proposes a modular glamping settlement organized around a central biological lake. The settlement is generated through a flexible grid located by following tree patterns, natural clearings, and topographic movement. Birch timber structures establish minimal point contact with the ground, enabling low-impact construction and adaptation to sloped terrain. The system is scalable, replicable, and transferable to different landscapes.
