Academics and students from GTU's Department of Architecture are invited to Medea [Mediterranean Ecological Adaptation Strategies] Carloforte Shade Lab organized in Carloforte by Mosè Ricci, Giacinto Donvito, Francesca Rossi from Roma Sapienza University, and GTU gets successfully represented on this important international platform with its team's outstanding work.

 

The Responsive Ground Research Group team from GTU, invited as "Responsive Ground Research Lab," included Assoc. Prof. Fitnat Cimşit Koş, a faculty member from the Department of Architecture at GTU, along with Research Assistant Seben Aşkın Kütükçü, PhD student Zehra Delerel, and Lecturer Betül Ozar from Işık University, who presented at the conference and acted as coordinators during the workshop.

 

GTU undergraduate architecture students who are members of the Responsive Ground Research Group, Berk Can Ağtaş, Buse Nafiye Kılıçarslan, Demet Öztekinci, Ertuğrul Emre Hüsrev, Muammer Gümüş, and Ayşenur Şanlı, presented their successful projects to the Carloforte Municipality and the local community.

 

The proposed "House of Tuna" project for the Old Tuna Fish Factory's land respects the socio-ecological context of the old fish factory, ensuring that the echoes of history remain alive in the contemporary landscape. The project envisions a vibrant community space where the spirit of Carloforte can thrive.
