Akasya Lake Parcel has been created through the revitalization of the waterway as a biological
pond located at the center of the land plot. Making this newly created natural texture a part of
the daily life in this parcel, both as a view and a means of recreation, is an element that shaped
the design. The fact that the buildings are located in a manner that protects them from the
blustering north-east wind has allowed the use of sliding windows even at the towers. The
spatial values that were lost at Istanbul during urban transformations were attempted to be
revived with the presence of the 10000 square meter area to be utilized as “Woods” for the
Akasya project. At Woods Parcel a 40 storey iconic building is designed to create space for the
woods. Social facilities, including recreational areas and playgrounds can be accessed by foot
without having to encounter any vehicle traffic.
