arch l strata l antioch will showcase the Antakya Museum Hotel project located in the center of Antakya, Turkey, close to St. Pierre Church which is one of the most important pilgrimage sites of Christianity. In Antakya, in a geography where every dig reveals findings of archeological relevance; contradictory to the common practice of concealing the findings and pursuing on with the construction, the client chose to unveil the potential of the site while bringing EAA into the project with the expectation of EAA – Emre Arolat Architecture to take the initiative of envisioning a building where a museum and a hotel could coexist together. The process of dealing with the tension and the attractive potentials of this programmatic dichotomy, examined throughly by EAA – Emre Arolat Arcitecture, will be presented in arch l strata l antioch.
Through images, text, videos and model, the exhibit will highlight the complex layers and the unique manner of the Antakya Museum Hotel project where intricate circumstances regarding the site along with normatives are confronted and dealt with in an unprecedented way, displaying how architecture can cause paradigm shift in interpreting private and public.
