Structural Glass: Projects, Journals & Ideas

About Discussions Projects28 Journals6

Structural glass functions as both a load-bearing element and transparent envelope in contemporary architecture. Designers use it to create spatial experiences that balance transparency, light transmission, and material integrity.

The community examines glass in diverse contexts: adaptive reuse projects that integrate glass into historic structures, residential designs leveraging glass for environmental connection, and installations that explore the material's tectonic possibilities. Projects range from complete glass houses to hybrid systems combining glass with other materials.

The project gently evolved by taking references from the natural sloped landscape laying under the grand fortification walls of Ankara Castle, where the collective memory lives for centuries. The building itself became an experience that evokes the memory of the historical layers, the local people; and praises the grandness of walls by revitalizing Ankara.

Under the transparency

Under the transparency is a chapel where spirituality is found through the exploration of different spaces and spatial atmospheres, with light and transparency being the most relevant axis of the project. our main idea is that the space has public or private meeting places, characterized by natural elements such as the sun, and by material elements.
