The building with indentations is one of the buildings belonging to a complex, Levent Loft. The existing construction primarily started as an office building, between the two pharmaceutical factories Fako and Deva, perpendicular to Buyukdere Street, on Maslak-Levent axis that has been the newly developing business center of Istanbul for the last decade. The building is re-designed as a residence within the Levent Loft concept. The loft concept began in the 1970’s as a solution for certain American artists’ search of housing. Today lofts have become not only a culture and a way of life coveted by many inhabitants of large cities, but also a point of reference within contemporary architecture. These open spaces with an almost industrial tone, not fanatically divided into sections, constitute a prospect to live-work and create at the same place; they are flexible and open to public.
