We're Code Works.

Architecture, Urbanism & Landscape Design Studio, based in Istanbul. 

 

Code Works is a collective architectural laboratory exploring the intersections of architecture, urbanism, and landscape, established in 2025 in Istanbul. We approach design as a system, a code that can be studied, tested, and reimagined. Through diagrams, research, and iterative processes, we investigate how spaces operate, how cities evolve, and how design can reveal new forms of understanding.​ We believe that architecture is more than the creation of objects; it is the shaping of relationships, systems, and experiences. Every project presents an opportunity to decipher spatial logic and propose thoughtful, responsible, and context-driven solutions.​ At Code Works, we aim to create work that is curious, analytical, and forward-looking, a practice where ideas grow through collaboration and continuous exploration.
