In Yenikapi, infrastructure is ideal in terms of functional rapport yet what's missing was the articulation of the urban space; as a method of styling the joints in between the formal elements,architectural design was the major requirement to build the relation; city space is expected to extend from surface to subsurface, and vice versa. Avoiding imposing an icon, the structure is not aimed to perform a dominant attitude; on the contrary, the structure is considered as one of the elements in building the space.The objects of urban living integrate seamlessly with sunken public piazzas of the Center, being its coupling interface with the city.
