rggA was founded in Ankara to research into, think on, and produce architecture and create a critical design environment.
So far, the office has successfully completed a lot of national and international projects.
Having worked on projects in various sizes and of subjects from large-scale urban projects to one housing project, the office specializes especially in college campuses, hotels and housings.
To complete the buildings in targeted quality, cost and time, the office also provides professional supervision, site management and consulting services, as well as project services. For this purpose, it works with a board of consultants created in the fields of engineering projects, procurement management, and field management.
Having produced projects in compliance with IBC NFPA, ASTM, EN, BS standards in addition to the applicable regulations and standards in Turkey, the office can prepare specifications in accordance with the Masterspec format.
If requested, projects with three-dimensional building information modeling can be produced to cover all architectural and engineering projects. (BIM)
PHILOSOPHY
We see architecture as a problem that must be resolved in terms of very complex factors, and a kind of cultural expression, far from creating a functional, aesthetic and a solid structure.
We begin our project processes by identifying the right questions. We are in pursuit of a good architecture with answers we search for these questions, and sometimes even with interrogations left as problematic. Throughout this journey, we put excessive emphasis on such concepts as context, functionality, simplicity, innovation, sustainability, and ecology.
COLLABORATION
We compare the design processes to rubick cubes. Investor (employer), Manager, User, engineering requirements, architectural concerns, local and international norms you need to comply with represent one face of the cube, each, and the problem is solved by all colors collecting to one side. Our duty, as architects, is to most properly analyze requirements in contradiction to one another at times, and provide the technical support needed for successful implementation of them.
Producing proper organization and cooperation has great contribution in the success of the project. Therefore, we integrate the employer, end users, consultants, engineers, contractors, suppliers and manufacturers, into the design process. We obtain the right information from the right people and evaluate them from an upper scale, and reflect them into the design.
