Located in Çengelköy Küplüce Mahallesi, this family apartment commands a unique view of the Istanbul Bosphorus, built on a 1,200 m² plot of land. Comprising four apartments, the building is designed to meet the needs of a family, featuring shared amenities in the basement – a gym, sauna, children's play areas, hobby rooms, and a cinema room. The existing structure has been completely demolished and rebuilt under the framework of urban transformation laws. The building block, with an occupancy area of 270 m², reaches a total construction area of 1,200 m².

This integrated approach nourishes the spirit of the building while providing both aesthetic and functional balance. The structure stands as an experience where the past and future blend, catering to the needs of contemporary life while preserving its historical
