Scope:                  Interior Lighting Design

Etstur moved to a whole building of Building Istanbul, one of Turkey's largest A Plus office projects. The interior lighting design of the Headquarter of Etstur was created by NA LightStyle that is the pioneer of its field with its lighting design and consultancy that it offers to many big projects.

Offering a living place for the employees with different functions units in the building, the classical work environment understanding presented with a modern interpretation in the office project.

Lighting design, which is the most important parameter of the workspaces in the office structure that offers a unique workspace with its innovative architecture and comfortable office life, was created in a way to increase the comfort and work efficiency of the employees.

The nine-storey office floors of the project were created by Efekta Architecture, while the management floor, entrance floor, and social areas were created by Geo ID. In the project, was shaped by the work and vision of two different architectural groups, attention was paid to ensuring the integrity of the lighting throughout the project. Concealed lighting that continues along with the core, especially on the office floors, also appears outside the building and to be part of the building.

The two floors within the office floors are reserved for the call center. On these floors that operate 24/7, lighting is as important as decoration for employees to work in a comfortable environment. For this reason, luminaires in which the light source is hidden and high visual comfort preferred. These floors were taken as reference considering the integrity of the project and the same fixtures were used on all floors. Lighting scenarios created according to different working hours of the project, and it aimed to refresh the space by ensuring that the vertical surfaces adequately illuminated.

A lighting design that is compatible with architecture made in common areas such as restaurants, fitness, and conference, was designed to provide the best service to the employees. Lighting scenes suitable for working at all hours of the day & night created in these areas, just like the call center.

In the lobby, can be an example of the shaping of the space with light, linear architectural design with illuminated surfaces was preferred. It is a place worth seeing with its extremely simple yet powerful effect, the entrance section that suits Etstur's corporate identity.
