PROGRAM | The Term Project: Emsalsiz

After the analyses of the Söğütözü site, we have created a program for the term project:emsalsiz as a group. The site is on the Eskişehir Road so we focused on the actors in Eskişehir Road. There are some universities such as METU, TOBB ETU and Hacettepe University, a lot of ministries such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. And then we have specified their needs.

 We focused on a library with high-tech industry ‘mediatheque’ as a program. People will use this mediatheque as a working space and group working space with technological compliance and the mediatheque will allow information storage of universities and ministries as city archive. This program is important that it allow to shaping environment.

After the focusing on library idea, we have analysed Provincial Public Library and National Library which are city libraries in Ankara in terms of their programs, their capacities, their users. And we have decided program, actors, and spaces. The spaces of the mediatheque will creating dynamic spaces with different programs.
