Architecture firms have to work hard to attract the best business and clients. Banu explains what differentiates the company other similar firms within the architecture industry, highlighting the passion that staff possess about their work and respect they pay to the client.
“Understanding the values of our customers in our designs, we are trying to keep the clients satisfaction at the highest level by adding our own comments to their requests.

Technology is becoming increasingly dominant in all industries; however, it is particularly relevant within architecture. Becoming more environmentally friendly is something that Banu is keen to point out, as well as looking forward to the future, noting living spaces under water.
“In our world where technological possibilities are increasing and where the fact that innovations in every field are rapidly consumed, architecture will also pursue new quests. For example, the idea of making living spaces under water which is being discussed these days. The use of glass is the architectural tend to be used more in the future as the connection with the environment increases to the maximum. The ornamentation and exaggeration of the nowadays architecture will leave place to a more lean, efficient, functional structure in the future. Increasing ecological awareness will also manifest itself in architecture. The use of recycled materials in office and residential buildings, more use of solar energy, even wooden skyscrapers are on the agenda as architectural ideas that will lead the future.
