Every project begins with a question: what is specific to this place, and to no other? Istanbul is a city of symbols. The mimosa brightens its streets in winter. The Judas tree sets its hillsides ablaze in spring. But further north, something rarer blooms. Perhaps more true to this city’s character… 𝘓𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘺𝘳𝘶𝘴 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘴. Nazende. An endemic wildflower that grows only in the forest clearings of Istanbul’s northern edge. Found almost nowhere else on earth. Not in gardens or parks, but in the margins; where the city begins to dissolve into landscape… This flower is the soul of our General Aviation Terminal project. A threshold between movement and stillness. A landmark that belongs to Istanbul the way Nazende does; rooted in this specific land, shaped by this specific light. Architecture, like a wildflower, grows from place. @igairport @jetex #TabanliogluArchitects #TA_

Nestled between forest and coast, Sipopo Congress Center wraps its bronze mesh facade around every conversation, filtering light as gracefully as it bridges cultures. A place where the world’s voices gather — and the architecture speaks just as loud. Photo Credit: @emredorter #TabanliogluArchitects #TA_

Transparency operates on multiple registers — as material, as space, and as attitude. In the Sipopo Conference Centre, it is not merely glass that opens the building to its surroundings, but a spatial logic that refuses enclosure. To be transparent is to be permeable: to light, to landscape, and to the plurality of voices that gather beneath its roof. Architecture, at its most civic, does not simply shelter — it signals. And here, transparency becomes a quiet declaration: that this is a place built for many, not for few. — Rowe & Slutzky remind us that transparency is never accidental. It is always, in some sense, a choice. Photo Credit: @emredorter #TabanliogluArchitects #TA_

A landmark for Senegal’s sporting future, the 50,000 seat Stade du Sénégal set the stage for Africa’s first Olympic event in 2022, while standing as the country’s only internationally certified football venue and one of the continent’s top ten at the time. Blending sport, city, and culture, its fluid metal façades and vibrant public spaces create an iconic, sustainable destination designed for both global events and everyday community life.

@melkangursel ’s talk at @riba last week took us straight back to Istanbul and Beyond, our first major exhibition in the UK, Gallery I, RIBA London, 2008. An exhibition that took our city, its scale, its density, its contradictions, and projected it onto three gigantic screens at Portland Place through a 3D video installation produced by Japanese visual artists @wowinc_jp . No models, no floor plans. Just architecture felt from within. #TBT #IstanbulandBeyond #RIBA #TabanliogluArchitects #MelkanGürsel

This week at Royal Institute of British Architects (@riba ), @melkangursel joined @sadie0rx on stage for a shared conversation on leadership and the future of architectural practice. Hosted by @vitrabathrooms at BMA House, the event began with both speakers reflecting on their career-defining moments and key projects. Moderated by @yemi_aladerun , the discussion then opened into a wider exchange with the audience—moving between personal trajectories and collective questions on the structures that continue to shape the profession. While many are already practicing new forms of leadership, the question remains: is the discipline ready to recognise and sustain them? #TabanliogluArchitects #TA_

In her article for The Architects’ Journal, @melkangursel reflects on how the profession continues to operate within deeply rooted, hierarchical structures that no longer align with the social and cultural realities of today. These questions were further explored during her talk at the Royal Institute of British Architects (@riba ), where the need for more inclusive, adaptive, and sustainable models of leadership was discussed in depth. #TabanliogluArchitects #TA_
