DESIGN ELEMENTS OF A TERRACE GARDEN:
PAVING:
•PAVING THAT HAS A HIGH REFLECTION VALUE
•THE COLOR, TONE AND CONTRAST OF THESE
MATERIALS CAN CREATE A STRONG VISUAL
INTEREST.
•LIGHTWEIGHT QUALITIES AND DURABILITY
•PERMEABLE OF WATER TO AID IN THE
DRAINAGE AND REMOVAL OF HEAVY RAINFALL
AMOUNTS
FURNITURE:
• ADEQUATE AND ABUNDANT SEATING
• WOOD FURNITURE OR HEAVY POLY-RESIN
FURNITURE IS MORE COMFORTABLE TO THE
USER THAN METAL OR CONCRETE SEATING

POOLS AND FOUNTAINS:

● WATER AND FOUNTAINS ADD GREATLY TO
THE ENJOYMENT AND AUTO-FILL FEATURE
WILL PROTECT THE EXPENSIVE PUMPING
AND FILTERING SYSTEMS.
CASE STUDY : TRUMP TOWERS.
● TRUMP TOWERS, A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT AT THE HEART OF BUSINESS AND URBAN LIFE
OF ISTANBUL, IS A UNIQUE PROJECT THAT CONNECTS WITH ITS SURROUNDINGS AS A NATURAL
PART OF THE URBAN LANDSCAPE.

● THE DESIGN WITH ITS URBAN AND THE PRIVATE USE-ORIENTED OUTDOORS, THE TERRACES
AND THE COURTYARD, WAS BASED ON A LINEAR SEQUENTIAL SETUP DEFINING THE
UTILIZATION OF THE GARDENS.

● DIFFERENCES BETWEEN VEGETATIONAL AND RIGID MATERIAL FACILITATED A 3D

PERCEPTION. HORIZONTAL MOBILITY WAS OBTAINED THROUGH COUPLING OF
PATTERNS; VERTICALLY, THROUGH TREES LOCATED ON ELEVATED TOPOGRAPHY, THE
LINEAR WALLS AND THE COVERING MATERIALS. SEATINGS, SHADES, WATER ELEMENTS
BROUGHT DIVERSITY IN THE SETUP.
● ONE OF THE TERRACES WAS DESIGNED AS A TRANSITIONAL AND RECREATIONAL AREA WITH
THE HIGHEST BOTANIC INTENSITY,
● THE OTHER TERRACE GARDEN WAS DESIGNED AS AN OPEN SPACE AND SUNBATHING AREA.

● THE INNER GARDENS OF TOWER 1 AND TOWER 2 ARE CREATED WITHOUT IRRIGATION
NECESSITIES. A SUSTAINABLE INNER GARDEN WAS FORMED. AS PLANTING MATERIAL,
IMITATIONS WITH STRIKING COLOURS WERE PREFERRED AND AN ABSTRACT GARDEN
IMAGE WAS CREATED.

● IN LIGHTING DESIGN, THE LINEAR IMPACT IS KEPT BOTH ON THE FLOOR AND IN THE WATER.
INSTEAD OF TALL LIGHTING ELEMENTS, THE LIGHT REFLECTING FROM THE TREES AND
SURFACES WAS USED.

● IT WAS AIMED THAT THE INTERTWINING FUNCTIONAL SPACES, WHICH WERE DESIGNED WITH
A TRANSITION FREQUENCY; FLOOR PATTERNS, WATER ELEMENTS, GREEN COMPONENTS,
AND THE LIGHTING EQUIPMENT TO GENERATE DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES, WHILE
SUSTAINING A GARDEN OFFERING VARIETY.
