The multinational pharmaceuticals research company INC Research has moved its İstanbul HQ Office to the prestigious Nida Kule in Göztepe.

The office area is relatively small at 450sqm but grand in its vision. The corporate identity of the company interpreted through graphics designed by our sister company Avcı Architects, gives an extra dimension to the space, which, in its layout, is very simple and minimalist. The relatively low ceiling heights in Nida Kule, finished with concrete coffer slabs, which have been finished surprisingly well, provided a great background to specially designed square strips distributed throughout the space in an abstract pattern. As in all the projects of Avcı Architects of various scales, the use of local natural materials has been the priority.

Our role here was to design the offices, taking on also the roles of brief development, graphic design, coordinating the electrical and mechanical engineering, and then, after agreeing on a construction budget, complete all construction documentation, including shop drawing level of details. Under our direction, we enabled the client to employ the services of a specialist fitout expert. We brought together all of the construction elements with specialists, supervised the production of shop drawings, agreed on manufacturing details, and supervised the construction of the offices.
