"Waterfront Arts"

Modern & Contemporary Museum on the Bosphorus, Istanbul, Master 2

This project, based in Istanbul, covered the entire year and started with the selection of the site and the design of the masterplan.

The Site we chose to work on is an old ferry terminal located on an industrial site along the Bosphore that had changed a lot during the last century. Our response was to maintain the buildings along the boulevard for reallocation, turn the majority of the site into a public space and create two attractions poles at the extremities of the site to host two cultural programs.

Those documents were realized with Baudouin Colcomb

Post-seismic management : The public space resilience is insured by the sizing of a crise managment site (blue drawing) to be deployed in case of seism for the treatment and evacuation of the nearby population.

The Museum is located on the North-East of the site. It offers large exhibitions halls of Modern and Contemporary artworks for the city of Istanbul. It also intergrate functions such as a library, restaurants and workshops for the nearby Art school.
