ECOHUB HOUSE

Groundwork - EcoHub is a demonstration center within Palatine Library, showcasing cutting-edge domestic low-carbon and renewable energy technologies, including solar PV, air source heat pumps, high-efficiency electric heating, and insulation. The project aims to redesign the space to be more technologically advanced, interactive, and accessible for all ages. The new design will enhance visitor engagement by allowing them to interact with the displayed technologies, gain hands-on experience, and access key information independently or with staff assistance. This transformation will ensure a more immersive learning environment, inspiring individuals to explore sustainable solutions for their own homes.

Hi I’m Ozgenur!

I’m currently studying MA Architecture and Adaptive Reuse. I’m from Istanbul, Turkiye. I graduated from Istanbul Technical University, Architecture.

During my internships, I used lots of architectural programmes so I’m able to use Rhino/Grasshopper, Revit, Lumion, Adobe Creative Cloud.

I’m glad to have an opportunity to be able to work on the EcoHub project and learn more about smart technologies for houses.
