The location is very close to Gümüşsuyu, Maçka, Taşkışla campuses of İstanbul Technical University (ITU). And it has Quick and easy access to the Ayazağa Campus. Also it is in the city center; it is very close to many centers such as Şişli, Beşiktaş, Taksim. On the other hand, the area is in the quiet part of this lively region. And the socio-cultural structure of the region is suitable for  a dormitory building. There are two roads connecting the area also, one of them is busier than the other road. And ITU social facilities, park and residential buildings are located around the area.

As is also understood from sections ; In the area where the road in front of the social facilities meets Hüsrev Gerede Street, there is two meters elevation difference between the site and the street.

In accordiance with the study rooms, rest rooms and common spaces consept of the dormitory, and the gridal system of the building; Two types of rooms creating the smallest units of the building were designed .

Because of the being too long of parallel side to the campus road of the area,  the building was divided into units in perpendicular directions to the road ( ↓↑ ) in order to break the monotony.

Units were connected to each other by a perpendicular circulation element, and getting daylight from facade were increased thereby removing the units a little from each other.

In addition to the consept created by large units; in such a way that all circulation corridors of building erupt from the facade by using the gridal system  and with subractions in the places wherever is needed , projections and niches of the building were formed.

After taking some decisions on the plan, consept of building was developed by terracing in the third dimention.
