Bodrum Houses
Bodrum, Turkey
New York, November
12, 2012 – Richard Meier & Partners unveils the first completed project in Turkey’s
Bodrum Peninsula. The house is part of a Master Plan composed of twenty-one houses
designed by world renowned Architect Richard Meier.
Composed of
twenty-one houses located just outside the village of Yalikavak on Turkey’s
Bodrum Peninsula, the residential project occupies a dramatically steep
hillside site featuring views to Yalikavak Bay. The site’s dramatic topography
makes each 1-acre parcel unique and will provide privacy from neighboring
parcels. Five prototype houses will be offered, with each house approximately
330 square meters plus an additional 40-square-meter guest house.
While the plan
of each prototype remains fixed regardless of its location on the site, the
organization of the podiums varies depending on the siting of the individual
parcels. All houses will be sited to maximize views and to establish an entry
sequence that further exploits the views regardless of the siting of the
individual parcels. A clear promenade sequence will characterize each
prototype, with an entry drive leading to an exterior entry stair then into the
house’s foyer and on to a double-height living room.
In each residence
the fireplace chimney will be the central organizing element. Each house will contain
a living room, dining room, kitchen, and powder room on the ground floor; three
bedrooms on the upper floor; and media room, laundry room, and staff bedrooms
on the basement level.

comments:
“The Bodrum
Residence is our first completed building in Turkey and a milestone of the
Bodrum Houses development. We have designed all the houses to read as a single
object on the landscape, giving them a cubic appearance and connection to the
site. The exterior spaces have been “carved out” of the structures’ volumes
while remaining under an overarching roof, giving each house a subtractive
sculptural quality.
Each element of
the master plan’s organization reflects an ambitious attention to detail and
innovative use of construction solutions. We hope this new development is not
only in direct dialogue to its place, but also that it becomes the best living
environment in Yalikavak.”
