with this Project I wanted to Show people what refugees has been dealing during iimmigration instead of where they are going.
The concepts of Immigration and immigrant has been growing problem of the World. Immigrants are the people who do not just change their accomodation but also change their life style and mood. The starting of this project is the necessity on focusing on these people’s wishes about life. The problems of refugees in the Galata reflects the problems of all refugees over the world due to the central role of Galata. In this project, it is aimed to strenghten the communication ways with refugees by the units like integration. It is used the historical features of Galata tower in the concept of the project. By this way, when it is looked from Galata tower, our project area could be observed; hence, what it is done in this area would be the interest of many people. In short, by this project, it is targeted to draw attention to problems of immigrants by using the significance of Galata tower.
