Entry Description

Cho and his student team at Bilkent University programmed and designed the Centre with the aim of stimulating socio-cultural, economic and political integration and inclusion between Syrians and Turkish locals. Research for the Centre’s architectural program and site investigation started in 2016, while the construction was between April 2020 and September 2021. Cho has continued his volunteering role as a donor and fundraiser, as well as serving as the Centre’s founding director and the principal architect, to build quality, equality and sustainability of life for all.
