"BFTA is an architecture studio founded in 2008 in Istanbul by Beylem Aydınay and Fuat Taşkıranoğlu."
We believe that architecture is not just the art of designing buildings, but a form of production that meets needs, complies with local regulations, and possesses the qualities of being an 'artwork.' It is a public act connected to the history, culture, materials, and topography of the place where it is built, shaping its surroundings at every scale. We also recognize that our design tools shape our product. In this sense, we make use of all forms of representation, such as descriptive texts, sketches, two-dimensional drawings, three-dimensional drawings, solid models, realistic perspectives, models, and prototypes.
