Nivak Florya

A Tropical-Urban Encounter at the Edge of the Sea Situated in Istanbul’s Florya district—between the Marmara coastline, urban woodlands, and metropolitan arteries—Nivak Florya offers a residential experience that blends fluid architecture with immersive landscape. Defined by a dual-phase concept, the project draws inspiration from tropical ecologies and natural gradients, articulating its design through two thematic stages: the Forest Phase and the Flow Phase. Responding to both urban pressures and ecological potential, the masterplan is shaped by the idea of continuous movement—of light, people, water, and terrain. From wide balconies to curved circulation paths, the architecture embraces fluidity, while the landscape softens built edges through terraces, reflection ponds, and dense vegetation.
