Rami Library

Successful conversion - from military barracks to a library

The structural redesignation, accompanied by the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism, finds its strong expression through the sleek design of Jansen Art' 15. With Jansen Art' 15, visual effects and maximum transparency were achieved. The metal construction company Metaltek & Ikon Yapi favoured Jansen Art'15 because it offers narrow face widths and arched geometries. There are over a hundred doors and fixed parts with different radii, so fabrication and orientation was a huge challenge. Further Jansen systems installed by metalworking company Remak. Over an area of 265 square meters, the VISS system of the modern façade consists of highly insulated Janisol steel profiles for high-performance door elements.
