Davamlı Sosial Mənzil

The pattern and pace of life today is quick and fast and communal traditions and activities that combine and bring together people of different age groups and backgrounds have become less and less common. However, it is this diversity and collective activity that shape us into well-rounded, compassionate, contributing individuals. Thus, this project aims to bring back these communal activities to blur the lines between different demographics and bring them closer together so that they can learn from and interact with one another.

The wooden co-housing is located in Ankara near the landmark observation tower, Atakule, the botanical garden, and portakal cecegi (park). This project aims to allow residents of the complex as well as their neighbors to easily access these green areas in the dense urban environment through bringing down the roads and changing them to tunnels, thus, the roads are given back to pedestrians. This shall encourage walking and physical activity among the residents as well as people working in that area.
