Esit Administration Building

Istanbul, Turkey

This administrative building for an electronics company was designed and constructed within the space of seven months. As part of this accelerated process, details were tested on a 1:1 prototype model of the corner of the building. The choice of materials projects the image of a technologically innovative company. The steel structure is clad with grooved aluminium sheeting, and the windows incorporate aluminium millwork and frames. Internally, the floors are covered with rubber and composite stone, while the walls and ceilings are plasterboard.
