Bergama Social Security Institution Building
İzmir / Turkey, 2014

Located in a land exposed to the wind with a front facing the intercity road in Bergama, İzmir, the office building takes the advantage of the dominating facade to the South. It is aimed to increase heating loads in winter and cooling loads in summer due to double facade created to the south, while fresh air is taken inside in a controlled manner and noise control is performed.

The gallery space built in the entrance axis and the waiting room ensures that the controlled fresh air received from the double-walled facade is forwarded inside the building without the use of energy.

The solar cells used in the parapet elevation on the southern front line contribute to the electrical load. There are services with counter and waiting rooms in the ground floor of the building creating a ground floor that is sun-controlled and sheltered created with arcades on the entrance facade. Project with the administrative offices on the top floor creates a large landscape area by being pulled back from the road.
