Glass Pavilion is a109 sqm glass structure and is located on the green area surrounding the 2. Grand National Assembly of Turkey. The pavilion serves as a lounge and a meeting hall. The transparent pavilion is carried by a tree shaped steel structure at the center. The cube shaped volume is raised 50 cm from the ground. LED strips are mounted at the raised interspace in order to give a floating effect to the cubic volume. The interior space is furnished with wooden elements. The parquet floor is framed by interior planting which is buried to the white pebbles that are lined in a strip. The entrance is through four identical entrances that are diagonally placed. Four identical wooden stairs are placed in front of the raised entrances, two of which open to the exterior pathway. The rectangular shaped pathway in front of the glass stucture, which is demarcated by lavender plants is connected to the pedestrian road of the Assembly.
