. — Halic library is situated in haskoy, istanbul. 95% of the seaside of istanbul is now privatized and doesn’t give access to the public. Haskoy is one of the few areas in istanbul that provides park along the seafront.


. — The halic library integrates itself into a neighbouring landscape without detracting from its natural beauty.


. — It ‘hides’ under a tessellated roofscape to preserve the public space above and create a new one below.
