德尼兹银行画廊丨KONTRA Architecture

Denizbank Gallery, located at Denizbank Headquarters, was designed as a multi-purpose exhibition and event center for both bank employees and outside guests. The strong, dynamic, innovative and enterprising structure of Denizbank have been reflected with the whirlpool of motion created by waves; as part of Kontra’s design approach.

At Denizbank Gallery which was created as an art-focused meeting hub, the design goal was offer a creative and unique experience to its visitors. The areas created with reference to the moving and dynamic nature of the water are balanced with the material differences on the ground. The design process of Denizbank Gallery aimed to reflect Denizbank's innovative world by creating a transformable space that can serve different functions with the use of portable volumes.

The movement of water is depicted in the space with the material differentiation on the ceiling surface; in which geometric elements and textural details led to the creation of the desired flowing outcome. The organic metal surface in the middle of the ceiling gives the 'liquid-fluid' effect thanks to the movable structure of the material. Light-shadow effects have been created to further emphasize its dynamic nature. The lighting scenarios are also designed to be suitable for multi-purpose use, which varies according to the works to be exhibited.

A plain atmosphere has been created in the space with the preferred white color so that the space does not create a chaotic environment for the works to be exhibited. Exhibition areas are created with mechanisms integrated into the partitions hidden inside the panels, which follow the movements on the wall. Thus, while providing unity between the space and the works to be exhibited, a memorable experience is foreseen for the users both with the exhibited works and the curated space design.
