In Istanbul, two extremes of formal and informal settlements have emerged from the urban development.

This bipolar development forms homogeneous groups that reinforce the control of society by individual players, limit access to certain places and develop the city into a sick organism.

Our aim is to strengthen the appeal of the city through punctual interventions in the existing urban structure and to open up new spaces that reinforce the mixing and friction of society.
