Reflecting its multifaceted purpose, HOUSE OF GEO stands as a vibrant headquarters and event center, established in 2022 through a collaborative effort by GEO and GEOMIM, alongside GEO-ID, Geometre, GeoStudio, and GEO Gallery. Strategically located in Istanbul’s historic Şişhane Square within the Beyoğlu district, it harmonizes contemporary functionality with historical context.
Location: Istanbul, Turkey
Program: Office
Year: 2022
GEOMIM's meticulous renovation preserves the building’s structural integrity while optimizing office spaces for maximum natural light and ventilation. Adorned with a green facade, the building accommodates all GEO entities, featuring a welcoming restaurant at the entrance, an artful gallery on the second floor, and a versatile event space on the terrace, offering panoramic views of the Bosphorus and Golden Horn.
This project exemplifies collaboration and commitment to environmental responsibility. Through strategic retrofitting, the renovation enhances architectural coherence, optimizes natural lighting, improves passive climate control, and integrates biophilic elements.
HOUSE OF GEO thus embodies architecture’s capacity to shape environments that not only honor cultural heritage but also pioneer sustainable design practices, defining our collective identity through innovation and thoughtful craftsmanship.
Beyond its architectural prowess, HOUSE OF GEO transcends its physical boundaries, fostering a dynamic environment for creative exchange and community engagement. Showcasing exceptional art and design, it hosts private events, exhibitions, and meetings that catalyze collaboration, dialogue, and growth among diverse stakeholders.
