Main intention of this project is to design a symbolic building which invites and stimulates people for sports. The complex as a landmark will be encouraging people for sports. The fluidity of the façade surfaces not only represents the dynamism of the sports but also contributes to the creation of the effect of symbolic structure. Integration of the architectural program and the topographic level differences provided the opportunity of creating different entrances form different levels both for the spectators and sports person. The shell roof continued down to the ground with the same fluidity idea and contributes to the balance between transparent and solid surfaces of the building envelope. The reflection of the roof at the interior strengthens the symbolic meaning of the building.

Basic determining factors of the design is the location, topography and the level differences of the site. By taking the advantages of the high slopes in the site, different grounds and entrances are created on different levels, not only for providing access to the building and sports field but also to create terraces as viewpoints of the site and the city. Direct accesses for the spectators and sports person are provided from different levels and streets surrounding the complex. Different sport activities are located at different levels and connected to each other. The main sports hall, individual sport halls and the football fields are located at different levels so that the spectators may reach to stands directly from the street level.

Hallaçlar Sports Center is expected to be a place where the professionals and beginners of different sport branches meet. In today’s cities, dense working and living conditions drive people away from bodily activities that enhance physical fitness, overall health, and natural environment. With the realization of this project, it is aimed to increase participation to sports, to develop awareness and to increase success in sports, to identify and train talented athletes. The project is expected to support the development of sports culture, starting from the amateur level, and will be a new centre of attraction for the city.

Besides the main sports hall which has a capacity of 3500 spectators, the center comprises sports halls for 12 different branches such as; fencing, archery, table tennis, wrestling, judo, wushu, etc. Two football fields, with approximately 2000 spectators each, are also designed as a part of the complex. All services, technical and social necessary facilities for these sports and spectators are also provided.

With the realization of this project, sports facilities will be built, which is an important deficiency of the surrounding community. In addition, with the increase in interest in sports, it will contribute not only to the increase in sporting success but also to the formation of healthy generations.
