Our goals
Knowledge Platform
We aim to generate and share knowledge by participating in workshops, lectures, and ongoing dialogue with experts. In the future, we plan to establish a dedicated research group and an open platform where insights, lessons learned, and best practices can be shared with stakeholders to strengthen disaster preparedness and response in Turkiye.
Designing long term
We support communities displaced by earthquakes through innovative collaborations that deliver safe, long-term housing solutions. Our designs focus on sustainable construction methods and materials, enabling earthquake-resilient buildings that can adapt to changing needs over time.
Construction for people
We build with and for people. By working with local materials, understanding geographical and climatic conditions, respecting cultural contexts, and engaging directly with communities, we prioritize the needs, wishes, and daily realities of the people who will live in these homes.
Our Principles
We are devoted to designing earthquake-resistant housing solutions, ensuring safety for everyone in vulnerable regions.
We insist on offering cost-effective housing solutions, providing equal opportunities for safety and comfort to all, irrespective of economic background.
Sustainability lies at the core of our projects, fostering self-sufficiency within communities and promoting ecological balance.
We are committed to creating modular designs, allowing adaptability to fit diverse cultures and local preferences. Modularity is fundamental to our innovative approach.
We prioritise community engagement, avoiding conflicts of interest, and ensuring user satisfaction. Active involvement in the community is integral to our design philosophy.
We believe in the power of diversity and actively seek varied expertise and backgrounds. Collaborating with individuals from different disciplines enriches our perspective and knowledge.
We are advocates for knowledge-sharing. By disseminating our expertise, we aim to empower others, creating an open-access knowledge platform to prevent errors in the building and design processes.
