The Istanbul Residences is a residential project located in Bakırköy, Istanbul. The project site, near the Marmara Sea, is located close to a formerly industrial area Veliefendi. The place was once home to Istanbul’s leather tanneries. This area has undergone a significant transformation and around late 19th century it became a one of the most desirable residential exurbs of the city. Today Bakırköy is not only popular with its huge shopping district but also it is a really large housing area.
GAD Foundation works to positively affect practice and theory in architecture and urbanism with a focus on education, society and their intersection with architecture and urbanism.
