GREENOX城市住宅丨土耳其伊斯坦布尔丨MENTAL DESIGN WORKS

Greenox城市住宅位于伊斯坦布尔欧洲一侧的城市更新区域内，处于莱文特·大比于克德雷大道（Levent Büyükdere Avenue）次级沿线的地段，该片区的既有建筑正作为整体转型进程的一部分被重新开发。面对伊斯坦布尔日益加剧的城市硬化问题，以及市中心居民对绿色与氧气不断增长的需求，Greenox住宅被构想为一个尊重自然、并高效利用能源与水资源的“生命体”。

Greenox Urban Residence is located within an urban regeneration zone on the European side of Istanbul, where existing buildings on the secondary frontage of Levent Büyükdere Avenue are being redeveloped as part of a comprehensive transformation process. In response to the increasing concretization of Istanbul and the growing need of city-center residents for greenery and oxygen, Greenox Residence was conceived as a living organism that respects nature and uses energy and water resources efficiently.

最初的概念策略旨在将既有规划条件所限定的单一体量，转化为一座能够借助其区位潜力引导改变的建筑。通过对周边开发项目不足之处的评估，设计团队发现该区域几乎不存在绿色地面空间。因此，本项目对“更新”的理解并非简单地拆除并重建同样的建筑，而是通过新的建成环境提升其所取代空间的环境与城市品质。

The initial conceptual approach aimed to transform the mono-block mass, which was imposed by existing zoning conditions, into a structure capable of guiding change by utilizing the potential of its location. Through an evaluation of the shortcomings of the surrounding developments, it was observed that green ground surfaces were almost nonexistent in the area. Accordingly, transformation was interpreted not as simply demolishing and rebuilding the same structures, but as enhancing the environmental and urban qualities of what replaces them.

立面结构以树枝的意象为灵感，构成了建筑最主要的建筑表达，并通过将与绿色的联系从二维延展至三维，形成一层绿色外壳，从而高效利用场地。建筑基底被整体抬升，营造出一处景观化的社交屋顶；同时，项目还突破自身用地边界，对相邻公园空间进行重新组织，构建出与周边环境无缝衔接的地面层。建筑立面共引入900株乔木与灌木以及25,500株植物，使 Greenox成为一座每年可产生约2,373立方米氧气的绿色建筑。

The façade structure, inspired by the metaphor of tree branches, defines the primary architectural expression of the building and effectively utilizes the site by extending the connection with greenery from the second dimension into the third, forming a green envelope. The footprint of the building has been lifted to create a landscaped social roof, while the project also extends beyond its plot boundaries to reorganize the adjacent park area, establishing a ground plane that integrates seamlessly with its surroundings. With 900 trees and shrubs and 25,500 plants incorporated into its façade, Greenox rises as a green building that produces approximately 2,373 cubic meters of oxygen annually.

与常规建筑相比，该项目每年可减少约250吨二氧化碳排放，并在用水与能源消耗方面实现约40%的节约，不仅有益于环境，也降低了居民的使用成本。植被系统通过产生氧气、吸收二氧化碳和粉尘颗粒，并在立面上提供隔热与湿度调节功能，帮助城市及其居民“呼吸”。落叶植物在冬季允许阳光进入室内，而在夏季则通过枝叶遮挡过强的热量与直射阳光。由此，建筑在夏季更为凉爽、冬季更加温暖，同时降低了能源消耗；所有灌溉与施肥系统均实现全自动化运行。围绕可持续生活理念进行规划，Greenox同时获得了 LEED金级认证与EDGE绿色建筑认证，后者由世界银行旗下的国际金融公司（IFC）首次在土耳其授予。项目始终坚持生态设计路径，将满足使用者需求的系统与长期可持续性相结合。雨水被收集并整合进立面系统，用于公园、景观及外部绿化区域的自动灌溉与施肥。中水系统可对水资源进行净化与再利用，有助于节约用水，并对自然水循环产生积极影响。屋顶安装的太阳能板利用阳光发电，提高能源效率，并为公共区域照明提供能源支持。

Compared to standard buildings, it emits 250 tons less carbon dioxide per year and achieves around 40 percent savings in water and energy consumption, contributing both to the environment and to the residents’ economy. The vegetation helps the city and its inhabitants breathe by producing oxygen, absorbing carbon dioxide and dust particles, and providing thermal and humidity insulation on the building façade. Deciduous plants allow sunlight to penetrate interior spaces in winter, while in summer their foliage blocks excessive heat and direct sunlight. As a result, the building remains cooler in summer and warmer in winter with reduced energy consumption, while all irrigation and fertilization systems are fully automated. Planned around a sustainable living concept, Greenox holds both the LEED Gold certification and the EDGE green building certification, awarded for the first time in Turkey by the World Bank’s IFC. An ecological design approach was consistently maintained, combining systems that meet user needs while ensuring long-term sustainability. Rainwater is collected and integrated into the façade system to support the automatic irrigation and fertilization of park, landscape, and exterior green areas. Greywater systems enable the purification and reuse of water, contributing to the conservation of water resources and positively affecting the natural water balance. Solar panels installed on the roof generate energy from sunlight, increasing energy efficiency and supplying lighting for common areas.

在整体规划框架中，项目发展出三种不同的空间类型，以界定私密、半私密、正式与半正式空间；同时，围绕社交与互动而设计的庭院承载了多样化功能。项目共包含11,500平方米的住宅空间和1,100平方米的公共配套空间，由一栋24层的单体建筑构成，设有170套住宅，户型为1+1和2+1，面积介于50至91平方米之间。停车及设备空间位于地下六层；首层设置满足日常使用需求的服务空间；其上的17个住宅楼层则布置1+1与2+1户型单元。

Within the planning framework, three different typologies were developed to define private, semi-private, formal, and semi-formal spaces, while courtyards designed for socialization and interaction host diverse functions. The project comprises 11,500 square meters of residential space and 1,100 square meters of social facilities, consisting of a single 24-story block with a total of 170 residences in 1+1 and 2+1 layouts ranging from 50 to 91 square meters. Parking and technical areas are located across six underground levels, while the ground floor accommodates service areas responding to daily user needs, and the 17 residential floors above are designed with 1+1 and 2+1 apartments.

融入绿色与水景元素的庭院成为空间焦点，并在功能与设计语言上各具特色。入口区域呈现更为正式的氛围，而承载公共设施的社交庭院则营造出更加舒适、活跃的环境。诸如社交庭院与露台等重点空间采用创新且灵活的设计策略，使场所能够在不同功能之间自由转换。

Courtyards enriched with green and water elements serve as focal points and are differentiated both functionally and in terms of design language. The entrance area adopts a more formal character, while the social courtyard, which hosts communal amenities, embraces a more comfortable and vibrant atmosphere. Special areas such as the social courtyard and terraces feature innovative and flexible design solutions, allowing spaces to transition between different functions.

项目在郁郁葱葱的绿色环境中设置了客房套间、会议与联合办公空间、泳池、健身区、休憩区以及露台烧烤空间，以促进社区内部的社交生活。通过优化空间组织，最大化私密空间的使用效率，并在首层辅以客房套间，同时在屋顶露台层引入第二层共享空间。以整体化设计理念为引导，项目打造了一处与城市相融合的花园层，提供涵盖健康、运动、个人与社交活动的多元空间，包括运动场地、桑拿、泳池、酒吧、休息区与观景露台，营造出从建筑各处皆可抵达的宜人使用环境。

Guest suites, meeting and co-working rooms, a pool, fitness areas, seating zones, and barbecue spaces on the terrace were designed to foster social life within a lush green environment. A spatial configuration that maximizes the use of private areas was developed and supported by guest suites on the ground floor, while a second layer of shared spaces was created on the terrace level. Within a holistic design approach, a city-integrated garden level offers spaces for health, sports, individual, and social activities, including sports areas, sauna, pool, bar, seating zones, and observation terraces, creating enjoyable environments accessible from every point of the building.
