Istanbul Planning Agency Public Hall / SO? Architecture and Ideas
Private Swimming Pool becomes Public Hall - Florya City Forest, which was opened in the early 40s, had been partially occupied by the previous mayors of the districts of Istanbul for private residential use. When the new mayor of Istanbul was elected in 2019, he promised to transform the whole area into a public campus by removing the private residences of bureaucrats and re-functioning the existing buildings with public programs. The private villas became the communal working spaces for the public institutes of the municipality, named İstanbul Planning Agency (IPA). But when it comes to the swimming pool, formerly constructed as a private recreational area for the residential units, the best choice seemed to demolish it since it would not be efficient and sustainable to use it as a public pool.
