Tailored for industrial and commercial companies, innovators and startups, space offers future-proofed work areas with state-of-the-art technical infrastructure as well as workshops, inspirational talk series, and innovation consulting services.  ATÖLYE has contributed to the project in the business design of the venture, it’s business development efforts, shaping of its brand and vision as well as its content and product offerings.    

At ATÖLYE, we believe that the boundaries between organizations and education institutions are blurring. Knowledge cannot be contained between walls and needs to be transparent and fluid to diffuse between disciplines as well as organizations. Together with Istanbul Bilgi University, we have created LITE, a progressive graduate program that explores the frontiers of hybrid learning in a university setting.

Open Roof Space Project was designed as a pedagogical space with a spatially hybrid program that fosters meeting, making, learning and working. To this end, borrowing from Fuller’s trimtab concept, the project intervened in a lightweight yet effective manner and chose the formerly dormant empty rooftop space of the existing building, measured at approximately 1700 m² within 15000 m². This scale difference allowed for experimentation while offering sufficient room for a critically diverse program.
