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.

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.

We are planning to work for research about Eco-House Technologies, designing the Eco-Hub, designing a model. And then, we will work in different groups for Digital Model, Physical Model and Video Making.

Whether you're passionate about sustainability, digital modeling, or innovative design, this is your chance to enhance your skills, collaborate with like-minded peers, and add an exciting project to your portfolio!

Experience the Future of Sustainable Living or Interactive Solutions for a Greener Home!

EcoHub provides information about smart home technologies. 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.

Here is the Action Week Plans!

First Day Meeting!

We are happy to meet all of our groupmates. Started the session with meeting each other and then the introduction of the project. In the afternoon, we are gonna start researching about the smart home technologies.

Thanks to everyone, nice to meet you all!

Day2:
Great day with lots of design ideas!
It was a very efficient brainstorming with the participation of everyone. We both designed the ecohouse of our dreams and discussed ideas on how to redesign EcoHub.

Day 3:
We started production!

We started the day by dividing into two groups.
The digital model group finalized the EcoHub design and started modeling.
The physical model group finalized the sample EcoHouse design and decided on the model materials.

Day 4:
Modeling Day.

Today, we continued to work on the physical model and the digital model. We finished the day with an online meeting with our collaborator.

Day 5:
End of the week.

We talked about the review meeting yesterday and made the final decisions about designs. Then We continued work on Physical Model all together.

Day 6:

Starting the week by working hard!
We continue work on models. We are coming to the end of the modelling work. We talked about the details of physical model and start drawing them on cad file. For the digital model, we continue work on details in the room.
