Our masterplan for BahΓ§eşehir introduces streets and townhouses around shared courtyard. It introduces public squares and alleyways as the traditional city opposite the typical β€˜instant city’ approach with towers rising from one privatised podium.

Sustainability

Kartal Homes proposes streets and courtyards instead of a private podium to promote an active neighbourhood. Townhouses are clustered around courtyard gardens providing semi-private space for neighbours to gather and children playing. Alleyways leads to shared semi-public squares for the whole community creating a variation in scale and a curious eye level experience for pedestrians.
