If we start with the foundation of a building, the first stage is the creation of the architectural design process. So what is the architectural design process? Architectural design; It is a broad concept process that extends from the design of a building as form, space and ambiance to its construction and delivery.


We know the precise, systematic, and predictable mathematical features of the architectural design process, as well as the complex, uncertain, and self-developing features. Architectural design; technical functionality and ergonomic functionality. It is important that the production made in technical functionality works, is designed correctly, and the functionality of the product or structure that comes out as a result of giving the measurements by calculating. Products designed after the beginning of the industrial age are given as stereotypes. As a result of the increase in industrial production and construction markets, certain criteria have been formed in the field of construction together with the design.


Although it is considered as ergonomic and technically binding criteria on one side and design on the other, it is also possible to make designs in which both are used together. Today, design approaches and processes are “user” oriented and move in the direction of moving with it. Spatial solutions are customized by establishing affinity with special and different design concepts. Considering the environments such as home and workplace where people spend a lot of time, personalized designs are made where they can feel comfortable. In this way, designs that consider both ergonomic and technical functionalities emerge. In special space designs created together with the professional solutions offered by construction companies, with the architectural privatization of brands like spaces, technical and ergonomic designs emerge while preserving the personality of the company.

In the Barry Callebaut project, which was created based on the chocolate concept; The formation process of chocolate is reflected in the space.

In the modular movable partition wall systems in accordance with the customized concept design preferred in the project, digital prints were made in accordance with the demands of the brand and the story of the office. While digital prints customize the brand and space, they also add a different dimension to the design concept. Thus, spaces designed with this approach can reflect a holistic story and result to their users.
