Vakıf Towers

Hosting the headquarters of Vakıfbank, Vakif towers have been designed to represent Islamic culture, science and arts, from the 13th century to present day.

The 40 and 26 storey towers have been designed in the shape of an octal star, a powerful symbol of Islamic architecture. The façade design is based on Seljuk geometry, and was created through the mathematical, pattern-based techniques of Seljuk architecture.

Ziraat Towers

The Ziraat Towers, housing Ziraat Bank's new headquarters, were designed by the renowned international architecture firm KPF (Kohn Pedersen Fox) and developed by A Tasarım Mimarlık. Inspired by the tughra, a traditional Turkish symbol, the towers pay tribute to Turkish architectural heritage.

Set atop an 8-story podium, the two towers stand at 40 and 46 stories tall, with a striking 40-meter-high courtyard at the center, connecting interior and exterior spaces.

Spanning approximately 431,000 sqm, the complex includes office spaces, restaurants, a gym, commercial areas, an auditorium with a capacity of up to 500 people, multi-purpose meeting rooms, prayer rooms, and roof gardens.

Halk Towers

The Halk Towers consist of two A+ office towers built above a podium that houses food and beverage areas, an auditorium, and commercial units. The 46-story main tower serves as the Halkbank Head Office, while the 33-story secondary tower offers leasable office spaces, providing premium options for businesses seeking a prestigious address in the IFC.

With a timeless and elegant design, the towers meet the highest standards of earthquake resistance, fire safety, energy efficiency, comfort, and circulation performance. Certified with LEED Platinum, they feature advanced amenities such as natural ventilation on tower floors, "super double-deck" elevators, natural lighting, and high-thermal-capacity glass. The façade’s combination of stone and glass harmoniously blends traditional and modern elements, creating a landmark in architectural excellence.

Block S1/S2

Located in the northern part of the campus, the Blocks S1-S2 feature a ground-level courtyard and a parking area at their entrance.

Both blocks include sixth-floor terraces, providing open spaces for end users.

Sustainability is a key aspect of their design. The buildings meet high energy efficiency standards, generate energy through rooftop photovoltaic panels, and incorporate wastewater recycling systems.

The design emphasizes human scale, with vertical and horizontal divisions carefully proportioned. The fragmented use of glass creates transparent areas that produce a striking, light-reflective effect.

Block K1/K2/K3

The K Blocks, located in the southwest of the campus, are strategically designed to ensure visibility from the D-100 highway. The three buildings, connected by a common base, smoothly integrate with the surrounding landscape at road level.

The ground and first floors feature public spaces that serve the entire campus, while a green terrace on the seventh floor offers a sustainable design with LEED GOLD certification, natural lighting, and efficient ventilation.

The base of the buildings incorporates historical design elements, contrasting with the modern aesthetics of the tower façades, creating a balanced blend of tradition and contemporary architecture.

B-C-D-E-F-G Buildings

The Blocks B-C-D-E-F-G serve as the Asian gateway to the campus. At the heart of these seven blocks is a large courtyard featuring social spaces, restaurants, and cafes open to the entire city.

• Block G, located at the edge of the area, features a stepped design with façades visible from surrounding roads.
• Block F, follows a simple and modular architectural approach.
• Block E, boasts its own courtyard and terraces overlooking the road, offering city views through its green windows.
• Block D, with its streamlined modular design, acts as a bridge between the Special Project Area and the Recreation Area.
• Blocks B and C, positioned directly opposite each other, share a central courtyard.

The Special Project Zone prominently incorporates Ottoman architectural elements. Inspired by the theme “A Deep-Rooted Türkiye, Empowered by Its Heritage,” patterns from the Ottoman period, particularly under the concept of “Sinan’s Istanbul,” are reflected throughout the designs of these buildings.
