An interior in Karaköy arranged for the rhythm of work. After the noise of the street, a slower tempo was left inside.
The existing building’s openings and ceiling height were held. The plan was divided into clear zones for meeting, focus and short encounters.
The material palette is limited to graphite, stone and light wood. Lighting was kept low, to complete the daylight.

Decisions
Three decisions that held this work.
01
Holding the existing height
Openings and ceiling were kept. The office stayed at the building’s own scale.
02
Clarifying the zones
Meeting, focus and short encounters stand apart. The plan moves without fragmenting.
03
Keeping the light low
Lighting completes the daylight; it does not rise above the tempo of the street.
Palette
A short set of materials.
- Graphite
- Stone
- Light wood
