Migration to rural areas is a rapidly growing trend in Turkey, creating a vast amount of poorly designed and constructed buildings on all rural areas where nature should be respected, protected and regenarated for the bounty of all.
Designers of specialist jewelry, the couple from İstanbul had a vision of settling in a rural area where they would be able to focus on their creative work and live at the same area, away from the density of big city, yet close enough to reach international delivery points for their work when needed.
As designers of holistic and sustainable settlements, environmental awareness and self-sufficiency expectations of the couple presented us with the opportunity to frame the design problem as an off-grid, highly self-sufficient house complex with natural materials, that would be easy to construct on site, with optimised construction and running costs.

Structure and Facade
Design Space:
The site is at an almost closed bioregion with farmlands with very low density houses, surrounded by specific oak tree zones that are protected and support wild life.
Efficient use and local production of all resources is highly valuable due to the distance to the closest resources. Topography dictates strong wind currents on NE-SW directions.
In the field and building features, the data of the ground and the adaptation to the bioclimatic features are approached sensitively. Attention is paid to the preservation of the natural topography of the land. It is aimed to benefit from the sun and the wind.
