PROJECTS

WITH SCHOOLS

 St. As a result of our meetings with Joseph High School officials, we completed the agroecological food production garden project by designing permaculture on an area of 600m² that they had determined beforehand.

 As this area is currently on cube stone pavement, we planned all productions to be high plants. In this area, we made different designs with high plant beds and reflected different examples of permaculture design in our design.

 We designed our wooden pergola by making space planning for the need for a space to be used while working and resting in the area.

Introduction to Sustainable Living in Harmony with Nature Training

In this training, which we offer as asynchronous, the obstacles of returning to a sustainable life in harmony with nature, individual and mass solutions are explained. The duration of this training, in which practical information such as Gardening and Permaculture Principles is given, is eight hours. At the end of the training, a face-to-face or online conversation event is organized.

 

Consultant Teacher for Sustainable Living Club

We can appoint our teachers who have Teaching Formation and Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) to your school as club advisors.

Curriculum for the Sustainable Living Club

The “Sustainable Living Club Curriculum”, which we designed as an extracurricular activity for Middle and High School students, was designed by our foundation and personalized according to your school calendar.

 

Our Transformation Consultancy for Schools process, which we can customize according to your school's schedule and needs, is as follows:

 

  1. An introductory meeting is held with your school administration, where our presentation is shared.

  2. Following your school's approval, a face-to-face or online presentation is organized in which all school stakeholders can participate. In this presentation, the importance and necessity of returning to a sustainable life in harmony with nature is shared by our foundation team.

  3. Students, teachers, parents and, if possible, all other school stakeholders receive the 'Introduction to Sustainable Living in Harmony with Nature Training' (DAISY) online.

  4. After DAISY, an online or face-to-face conversation is organized in which all school stakeholders who have received our training can participate and find answers to their questions about education.

  5. Your school establishes the “Sustainable Living Club” for middle school and/or high school students.

  6. Your school appoints teacher(s) for this event to ensure the continuity of the “Sustainable Living Club” in the coming years.

  7. Our foundation provides a teacher to mentor this event for one year.

  8. Our foundation shares the curriculum/s it has prepared for the 'Sustainable Life Club' for pre-school, primary and secondary-high school.

GARDENING SERVICES FOR INSTITUTIONS

KURUMLAR

Istanbul Circular Works Workshop

We made a permaculture design for the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Circular Works Workshop Edirnekapı Project on a 370 m² area.

We presented an exemplary compost production and agroecological food production garden project in Edirnekapı, where the existing recycling workshops are located. DIA will start production from recycled materials so that this area can come to life.

Municipalities carry out social services for the well-being of the residents.  We develop multi-benefit projects with these boroughs.  

 

+ Training of municipality staff: Municipality staff, who receive self-sufficient living space design training, have the infrastructure to realize their eco-campus designs.  

 

+ Community gardens: We establish gardens to produce natural food by educating and organizing the people in a neighborhood dedicated to Permaturk by the municipality.  

 

+ Eco parks: We create pilots for sustainable habitats, including soil production, gardening, water retention, clean energy, recycling, natural sites, natural livestock, food forest creation.

BALKON/BAHÇE

BALCONY AND TERRACE GARDENING SERVICES

Permaturk Foundation
Entrance Terrace

 We have completed our project, which will make the entrance of our foundation center more attractive and show examples of sustainable living in cities in the example of balcony and terrace gardening.

 İbb As a result of the protocol we signed with the Circular Works Workshop, we presented the design of the terrace area at the entrance of the foundation, and we listed the building materials and dimensions of each product we used in this design on a legend and sent our works to the İBB Cyclic Works Atelier.

1-Land survey studies (data expected from the customer)

For holistic design, it is the determination of the resources in and around the land, the production of the digital 3D model and topographic map of the land, and the research of the land yield potential.

  • Land title / parcel information

  • Photo and video from the field

  • Situation plan

  • topographic map

  • Soil analysis

  • Water/electricity sources

2- Evaluation of data and requests of the customer

The determination of all the components to be included in the Living Area, the finding of relationships that will provide multiple benefits between the components, the placement of the components on the land, the reporting of the solutions that will provide abundance and efficiency as a result of the design are completed.

  • Making observations and researches in the area to be designed / planned

  • Determining the needs program

  • Making observations and researches in the area to be designed / planned

  • Identification of problems and possibilities, creation of solutions for them

  • Examination of natural and legal thresholds, determination of transportation and circulation relations

  • Identification of the natural and cultural data available in the project area, if necessary, to make / have the survey studies done and to be processed into the plans

3- Preliminary (preliminary) project studies and work phases

Placement of structures on the land, access roads/pathways, water retention details, earthworks, landscaping etc. The first studies are designed.

  • The boundaries of the Project / Planning area and the suitability of the close environment relations

  • Existing and proposed elevations and/or contours where the natural and physical structure of the area is processed (land plastic-grading)

  • Measures considered according to the evaluation of climate data

  • Indication of in-site and nearby structures, natural and cultural features

  • It includes the entire transportation system for vehicle traffic, transportation and circulation, service transportation, pedestrian circulation and design.

  • A herbal composition for design is provided, suitable for climate, macro and microclimate, with names of materials and uses; it is prepared in a suitable scale, the technique and presentations are prepared in the best way to describe the design,

  • The silhouette, section, view and/or perspectives are prepared to explain and support the design.

  • Summary lists are prepared in which the structural and plant materials designed to be used in the project area are determined.

  • Dominant wind, landscape, linear scale and north direction signs are shown in the same place in the projects.

 

4- Implementation project studies and work phases

Detailed project calculations and drawings of the construction works to be carried out in the field are carried out in line with the maps and data from the preliminary project.

  • The boundaries of the settlement plan and the zoning status relations and suitability,

  • The natural and physical structure of the area and ground information,

  • Existing and proposed system solutions related to infrastructure,

  • Measures taken according to climate data and meteorological conditions,

  • Measures taken against existing structures and/or surrounding structures, affected areas and natural features,

  • The "Final Project" is prepared as a result of the finalization of the structural and plant materials and site lists to be used in the project area.

  • Final Project studies and an explanation report in which previous studies are compiled,

  • Recommendation details / material views on materials,

  • Silhouette, section, view and/or perspectives explaining the design are prepared.

  • Dominant wind, landscape, linear scale and north direction signs are shown in the same place in the projects.
