URBAN CANYON

Urban Canyon

The first Kordon in İzmir is one of the major axes that fulfil the recreational area needs. All recreational, commercial and gathering activities take place along the Kordon, regardless of the season. But at the exact point of the project site, all those activities starts to fade and Kordon re-characterised to be filled with industrial typologies. From this point on, it is inevitable to create a threshold, which will both integrate the on-going public interest around the site and the requirements of the Design Factory. The organisation, named as the Urban Canyon, will enhance the interaction of the users of the factory and the people of İzmir by defining an introverted organization which multiplies the ground’s publicity to various levels throughout the complex.
