Sabanci University, Karakoy Campus, Istanbul

Located in one of Istanbul’s most historically layered districts, the Karaköy Campus of Sabancı University combines contemporary education with a restored architectural setting. The façade lighting design was developed to emphasize the campus's architectural refinement while maintaining respect for the texture and scale of the surrounding urban fabric. One of the focal points of the façade is the series of historic sculptures embedded within the architectural composition. Targeted narrow-beam luminaires were employed to delicately reveal these figures after dark, preserving their sculptural depth and enhancing their visual presence without overpowering the overall composition.
