Bolluca Market Hall
Arnavutköy, Turkey
As contemporary Turkish towns are usually developed without any planning procedures, they suffer from the scarcity of public spaces and the lack of spontaneous street life. Bolluca / Arnavutkoy is no exception, its residents are relatively low income people and immigrants. Municipality tries to overcome this lack of public spaces by the idea of developing multi-use semi-open spaces in available lots near neighborhood centers. Bolluca Market Hall would serve as a model for those to be built subsequently in the other neighborhoods in the vicinity.
The building is designed as an exposed steel structure, interior space flanked by 2 wings, storage / wet spaces on the one hand and an outward facing organic market on the other. Its lateral section consists of two naves spanning 25 meters and 8 meters consequently. The building opens to green areas on both short sides, towards a cemetery on northeastern side and towards an ecological corridor on southwestern side - a matter of importance for Istanbul's macro form. The roof is formed with an exposed reverse tensile truss system. The exposed treatment of the steel beams, pressure bars and tensiles create a sense of lightness in the large roof.
The building is not equipped with mechanical climatic systems. The large roof which spans the large nave of the main hall is positioned in order to prevent north winds The vertical sun grilles provide shade on the south.
The roof is covered with Marseilles tiles while inside the OSB panels which holds the insulation layer were left exposed in order to maintain a warm effect inside. The facades on the short sides of the building within which service gates are designed were articulated with horizontal wooden planks. Generally, low cost, locally available, and recycled materials were used throughout the building.
