MALATYA İNÖNÜ UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY CENTER
Malatya İnönü University Wellness Center is a supporting building for Malatya İnönü University with a 4.138 sqm land area. It situates in a close proximity to the university and works as an extension of its program. The project accommodates two movie theaters, cafeteria, fitness halls, two vip meeting halls, two staff multipurpose halls, restaurant and two private dining halls.
One of the design principals of the project is to divide the building into two to achieve coherent integrities within themselves/ as complementary functions working together such as fitness and cafeteria, and vip areas, multipurpose and exhibition halls and restaurant. Entrance to the building is provided through the space between the two masses and it is given a transparent volume to work as a foyer area. The masses take form according to the site and take reference from the street axis which extends into the building and creates the foyer area. The volumes have a particular form which allows them to create outer courts designed with landscape and water elements, and to have flexibility in the form. Technical and service areas are designed as a separate linear volume and attached to two main masses from the back, looking towards the northern side of the building.
Sustainability is one of the main design considerations of the project; therefore, green building design principals are incorporated into the design process from the beginning. The systems used in accordance with the development of green building are as such:
Passive Systems
High performance outer shell, glass and system choice according to that
High solar reflection value of the roof
Rainwater storage
Use of endemic plants with little water necessities in the landscape
Led use
Dimmable lighting systems
Use of recyclable materials in the construction
Minimizing the required energy for logistic by using local materials
Bicycle + electric car parking
Control Systems
Use of productive devices
Building automation
Consumption control with leakage detection
Energy Production
Heat recovery
