Historic Long Building by MSE Architecture

As part of the BÜYÜKYALI project in Istanbul, where interiors were designed by MSE Architecture (Metex Studio Erk), the restoration of Fisehan (the Bullet Factory), known as the Historic Long Building, was carried out.

The 180-meter-long historic workshop building consists of 23 independent residential units, where all modern urban life details were integrated without losing the architectural style.

The residential units, designed not only for living but also for offices, stand out with their industrial style elements: stone walls, high ceilings, and impressive wooden structures. The perfect balance was achieved through the use of natural wood and metal in the interiors. Two-level Loft apartments, designed with widths of three or four modules according to the structural system's axial intervals, meet all modern living needs. They are decorated in a simple, contemporary, and neutral color scheme that does not compete with the historical style.

To avoid interfering with existing building walls, natural lighting is provided through roof windows, and new walls were added only for bedrooms and bathrooms. Loft apartments can be adapted to various purposes thanks to their open layout and flexible design, allowing space modification.

The Historic Long Building offers a unique lifestyle by combining the past and present, while adding distinctive value to the project as a whole.
