Blok type configuration, let the structures locates on the site according to the topography. Therefore, it is achieved an articulated silhouette.
This system, which has the potential to add a new block, provides a flexible orientation and development compared to a new single block.
The canteen and study rooms are designed in a way that to have a direct relationship with the lobby so that it would be easy to control these areas. Cantin also has a direct vista to the Güzelyurt Valley. A sun-breakers are proposed for south façade of Cantin while study rooms have controlled light from skylights of the plaza.
Plaza had been created and this plaza related with public spaces. It is predicted that this place will be a prestige point of the campus by proposing social structures such as cinemas and hammocks. Therefore, it is created a living social environment for dormitory students.
Between the linear blocks, a street had been created parallel to the main wind axes in a site with such a hot climate. The street is articulated with landscape fixtures in a way that it would be more than a just a route; a living street with different spatial qualities. On the other hand, the spatial differentiation between the public street and private rooms had been achieved by level differences.
The area of the corridor in standard dormitory type which there are rooms attached to the corridor will reconsider in a way that to create a common room per three rooms. Moreover, these three rooms which share a common room will have common bathroom and kitchen. These common spaces are designed as a socialization area where students can cook, play games with the view and rest.
