Winner of the Supreme Award, TEAM Architects National Scholarship Awards 2026 in New Zealand.
The project aims to make new bridges between the two countries, Turkey and New Zealand. Turkey has always symbolised a bridge between Europe and Asia, culturally, socially and diplomatically. In the projects, the Turkish Consulate and the Music Hall become architectural expressions of bridges.
The platform embodies a layered dialogue between movement, culture and place, expressed through architecture. The project is shaped around the idea of not dominating the site but integrating into it and creating a welcoming public space for everyone.
