Fly with us

In collaboration with
 Nicosia and Famagusta municipalities 


Fly with us and let the sky tell you its secret
Urban design project
 Cyprus,  2020



"We go back to some streets more often than others… Maybe a street unlocks memories or offers expectations of something pleasant to be seen, or the possibility of meeting someone old, or someone new... Because some streets are more pleasant than others, we go out of our way to be on them." Allan B. Jacobs

A trailer for the project
This project aims to record the evolution of social interactions and engaging activities measured in response to a divergent technological addition yet homogeneous relative to the present public space. To clarify, the goal lies in measuring the degree of change (if any) in people's behavior as a reaction to the foreign installation included as a part of the public space. In specific, mainly focusing on the interactive artistic, technological type of installation new to the city of Famagusta & its landmarks.
 This project was done in collaboration with Eastern Mediterranean University, department of architecture and by the help of Famagusta Municipality, it was done to fulfill the requirements of getting the degree of Master of Science in Architecture under the title of "The Effect of Intelligent Interactive Installation in Public Spaces" led by the idea of "the value of strangers" or as we call it " that you may know one another."


People said about this project :

 - “it was amazing how the blending of the historical walls and the sound of the sea altogether, with the shadow of the silhouette that shapes the skyline of the walled city of Famagusta from a new perspective”.

At the same time, a different introspection of the public space was given; and that’s defined by the curiosity of one’s being. For instance, a local with their child suggested approaching the interactive installation’s experience as “a kind of game”; a new way to find all those portals around the city.
Moreover, the addition of turning around to check the 360 birds-eye view of its points, adds a new level where they can see the city from different perspectives: focusing on the fact that it reflects urban exploring throughout all Cyprus. In short, as quoted: “Once you start with one, you will never stop till you collect them all.”
-
“This simple installation not only helped us understand the depth of the historical places in this city but also intrigued us to read more and visit all the other cities once we can before traveling back home”
a tourist mentions as he returns with more friends to share the same experiences.

- “Technology is not only for professionals or students; it is in fact for the public service of all users of all ages. In which, as shown in this experiment, the technological addition was simple but extremely effective”.


Let’s drink coffee together !
