Alba Villas Complex

Alba Villas Complex is located in the Zekeriyakoy district of Istanbul in Turkey. The project consists of 16 villas in 7 different types with areas ranging from 600 to 900 square meters, located adjacent to a large green space. The project, which was formed by converting a conventional house into its interior spaces, represents the internal programs of the independent spaces of a house on its exterior and tries to expand the logic of the project's separation to form other programs such as the landscape, public spaces and the main entrance of the complex. The logic of the design of the villas begins with the division of the villas into 9 parts and continues by separating the spaces and creating transparency in the volume and finally conforms to the internal plan. Furthermore, according to the rules of the gable roof in the region, terraces for the bedrooms are designed on the roof to benefit from the space and the wonderful view and landscape around the site. In the design of this project, an attempt has been made to create integrity, harmony and continuity in the structure of the project by benefiting from the common gene in the design of the elements. The amenities of this complex include interior and exterior parking, gym, game room, billiard room, flexy pools, robot dog and a complete intelligent system. Material selection, energy efficiency, and nature-integrated design were fundamental elements in our design process to move closer towards sustainability. Alba Villas is an artistic experience of life.
