new serial in Turkey

I’m studying architecture, last grade. Since I don’t like machines-structures-buildings.. and also practicing my profession I have been searching for social/environmental aspects of it to work in. Hope I’ll find one.
Why I want peace:
I want the world to be a place where people are respecting each other.
How I found mepeace.org:
through my friend Eyal Raviv
What I want to achieve here:
I want to be aware and informed, I want to understand how I can contribute.

Yes

"Haus der Freundschaft" - An example for Politics-Architecture Relations


An article in a well-known architecture magazine "Arredamento" this month is quite interesting. It tells about a project considered to happen in İstanbul but had never came to reality due to Ottoman Empire's military and political failure in 1918.

The project's name was "Haus der Freundschaft" meaning "Continue

Every morning when the sun rise the hope of peace is renew again, but through the same day we lose it slowly until sunset, then we said tomorrow is a new day with a new hope.
Really, we are tired but we have a hope.
PEACE
It is nice to see you here.

Hi Çiğdem,

Great post on "Promoting Peace through Architecture." Some things are universal and can transcends cultural barriers- architecture and design are definitely among them. I'm a design student in New York- for my thesis I'm creating a design-centric campaign to rebrand the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict... If you could take a second to help me out in my research and visit this site, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!

Pleasure to meet you.

Justin

Ohad, you are aware no doubt of the intense frustration and resentment of the Arab world and many parts of the Muslim world at our presence here. This leads to a culture of hatred, which these societies have no right to do, but nonetheless they do.…
