"Erginoglu and Calislar Architects Build Sustainable Structure in Istanbul

If you’ll ever visit Turkey or Istanbul in particular, you’ll learn that this culture has an amazing sense for architecture, and that their structures charm with interesting shapes and stylish elements. Commissioned by Turkish firm Erginoglu and Calislar Architects for a private telecommunications company, this four story glass and metal structure is an eco-friendly addition to the city’s bustling environment. A sustainable design hailed to consume extremely low amounts of energy, the building serves both as a research, development and technological centre as well as an office for the company’s employees. That’s what functional architecture should be all about — intelligent, green solutions. [via DesignBoom]"
