The urban installation project is located by one of the most crowded highway in Istanbul at Kartal district. It is between the tax company and Audi service building as an empty spot. Project is commissioned via invited design competition held by Kartal Municipality and AUDI Turkey. Since the façade of the AUDI building was totally made of metal mesh panels, we decided to form a familiar visual language. Especially the aspects of durability, stability, in-budget and esthetics were the primarily chosen concepts that gave path to the design. Design is composed of basic material combinations regarding the multiplication rule of 100 cm; metal mesh panels, plywood and polycarbonate panels are all 100x200cm or multiplications. Lighting project is designed in order to illuminate the area by night and to change this lost space into an attractive urban spot. Besides its primarily program which serves as waiting area for passerby or citizens that waits for the tax services, it also serves as an attraction point for suburban life. Urban installation aims to host night cultural activities such as street performance of young artist and collaborators.
