Project Description
Capitalbank Headquarters located in 1000 sqm area in Lefkosa
region of northern Cyprus.Building rises in total 6 floors and it has
two separate functional parts, adminitration and bank brach. These
functions were determined as bank central office, operational areas,
seminar-conference areas and management building on the floor level
basis.
The wooden band which acts as a link between these two natural stones,
creates the frame of the building at the same time. Thanks to these
wooden panels which moves horizontally according to the movement
of the sun, the building becomes sustainible with increasing natural
lighting and decreasing mechanical heating-cooling systems.
Solid natural stone walls used in either side of the building, serves as the
background for the company’s star-shaped corporate sign. . The wooden
line that serves as a mediator between these two natural stones, also
comprises the frame of the building.
Natural light plays an important role for creating a productive working
space in this building. Due to its hot climate of this region, façade was
introduced in order to decrease the heat from sunlight yet still bring in a
decent amount of natural light to the office.
