Project idea

The project area covers the neighborhoods at the back of the Delikliçınar mosque in the center of Denizli. The aim of the project is to offer people a better livable environment.

Project description

Registered buildings form the basis of the settlement ideas in the project area. A green axis is designed that includes registered buildings and reaches the city center. The project area was designed with a gridal system, so that the transportation axes and plots were formed. The buildings on the main street are positioned to support the urban corridor effect. Other buildings are positioned within themselves to be divided into streets and by keeping the number of floors less. The buildings form an inner courtyard and each plot has its own green space. Thus, it is aimed to increase socialization in living life and to spend time outdoors.
