Our proposal comes in response to this wonderful and strategic point that has to rise up the Telecommunications Tower that the City of Istanbul plans to build.
The topography of mountains within the Asian side of Istanbul ends in the mountains of Çamlica, the gravitational center of Istanbul. It is the center of population density of more than 15 million, and that revolves around this center.
Our proposal offers an end to the conquest of the buildings and artifacts here. That is why we should not build any kind of building, but an object that clearly reveals the natural attributes of the place. Our proposal is simple and in a natural way, as an element that does not belong to the city, but belongs to the landscape.
Maybe we’re talking about a minaret sculpted by the wind? Maybe we’re talking about a twenty-first century lighthouse? Or maybe not. We leave the citizen freely to find the object identified.
