Architecture in Bodrum, Muğla
Villa design in Bodrum is one of the most particular architectural problems in Türkiye. Plots are usually sloping, the view faces the sea but so does the sun, and building regulations constrain everything from facade height to roof form. A good Bodrum house is one that resolves all three constraints at once.
Shade is the decisive factor. A wide opening facing the sea is unusable through the summer if it is not shaded. That is why in Bodrum the terrace, the pergola, the courtyard and the eaves are not decorative elements but load-bearing parts of the plan. Wind matters just as much: the direction of the prevailing northerly determines where the seating area can go.
The maritime climate makes material selection harder. Salt wears metalwork and timber quickly; the maintenance interval of the facade cladding, the choice of balustrades and joinery, and wet-area details all set the long-term upkeep cost of the house. These decisions are made at the beginning of the design, not at the end.
To be clear: we do not yet have a completed project in Bodrum; we would like to work in the region. We do have villa-scale experience — the detached villa projects we run in Önerler, Çorlu require a comparable way of working in terms of sloping ground, the garden relationship and turnkey delivery.

How we work
| 1. First meeting | We look at the plot or the space together, listen to your needs and set the budget frame. No fee is charged for this meeting. |
| 2. Concept | We produce the spatial layout, the material approach and 3D visuals. This is the stage where the design is discussed and revised. |
| 3. Construction drawings | Detail drawings, joinery and production files. Everything the contractor needs to build is defined here. |
| 4. Production and site | We supervise fabrication, coordinate the trades and check that the work matches the drawings. |
| 5. Handover | Final checks, the correction list and delivery of the space ready to use. |
