Serdivan Houses
Serdivan Houses are designed to become a trendsetter with its three level restricted height housing typology at Sakarya, Turkey. Four blocks are lined up along stretched site allowing a total construction area of 3,450 sqm. Each block consists of 6 units. Living rooms, terraces and kitchens are gathered at the front and shifted horizontally at each level to create asymmetrical facade composition along the site. The careful selection of local natural stone panelized in varied large rectangular cuts and surface treated to have rough textured finish. Vertical alignment of the stone cladding is interrupted by horizontal aluminium finishes to create a volumetric play to blur leveling lines and neighboring relationships of the units. Window openings are a result of three dimensional shifting of the metal and stone facade fragments. The facade design mediates the major experience between the units’ well daylit interiors, and their external social and green masterplanning strategy.
Serdivan Housing was built in Serdivan, on the edge of Sakarya, for Remley. At 3,360 m² it belongs to the scale of a neighbourhood rather than a development, in a district that has grown steadily outward from the city.
The project was completed in 2016 and photographed by Thomas Mayer.
It sits alongside the office's other work in the Sakarya region, including the organised industrial zone headquarters and the Hendek mosque.
