Entry Description

The devastating earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria highlighted the urgent need for resilient urban planning. Our project aims to transform Gaziantep into a model city by leveraging nature-based solutions (NBI) to rebuild not just structures but also community hope and resilience. By integrating nature and people, we address both environmental and human needs, fostering a sustainable future. Our interdisciplinary approach has led to a comprehensive plan that showcases the power of collaborative design for landscape revitalization.
