Entry Description

Headquarter building for Empera,one of the biggest companies that manufactures machine-woven carpets in southeastern Turkey,has been designed to become a reference building in an architecturally nondescript neighbourhood.Aiming to represent the strong brand identity,the brick facaded building rises up as a reinterpreted expression of the surrounding red soil-moor landscape.Guided by the climate,the surrounding natural landscape,and effective use of daylight,the building has been designed to host a showroom, offices, common social areas and a cafeteria on the top floor with a semi-open terrace.
