The “island” part of Yalikavak Marina, which is the first phase of the complex, is planned to house restaurants, swimming pools, sanitary and mechanical units for needs of megayachts that will dock in the marina. The main motivation for the design of the “island” was to search for the possibility to reconcile the needs of ‘outcomers’ with the genius loci of Yalikavak as a Mediterranean settlement.

In the Yalova example peculiar to this city, oppositions between the main layers stand out. One face of Yalova is its natural side.

Cendere Valley Urban Design Project focuses on the Kağıthane Cendere Valley region where pressure of urban transformation is heavily felt. This region which was used as an agricultural field during Ottoman period and occupied with large numbers of industrial plants, with the industrialization move during the Early Republican period and especially after 50’s, stands at the threshold of an essential urban transformation with the pressure of the up-rising service sector and Büyükdere Street close by. Cendere Valley Urban Design Project, presents a model of green public space where the existing ecological corridor of the valley is protected and different functions are combined together and opened to the public use, while averting functional zoning and urban segregation. As an opponent stance to the high construction regions offered for the Project, a construction which creates a low but sufficient density to create an “urban” situation is suggested. This construction combines low storey buildings and high blocks which are placed conveniently not to block the air corridor in between. Emre Arolat who has won the Agha Khan Award for Architecture in 2010, was also commended in two categories in MIPIM AR Future Awards 2011 with “Varyap Merkez Retail and Cultural Center” and “Zorlu Center” projects.
