Arkitera Architecture Center is an independent architecture and urbanism center founded in 2000 in Istanbul. Its mission is to sustain a better architectural practice, enhance the architectural culture and raise the quality of the built environment in Turkey. In order to achieve this mission, Arkitera develops and publishes several online and printed magazines which is followed by the majority of the professionals of the related fields. Arkitera has also initiated the first and largest archive of contemporary architecture in Turkey, which is being also published over Internet under the name Arkiv. The center keeps its independent status by financing all of its event and publishing costs by sponsorship and advertisement revenues from the construction and property development industries. Arkitera Architecture Center also has close relationships with many similar institutions in Europe and also has collaborations with many architectural schools in Turkey or abroad. Arkitera Education Center has been initiated as a secondary field, for providing continuing educational courses for professionals.
Since its establishment, Arkitera Architecture Center became a central communication platform for debates, discussions and dialogs for architecture and urbanism issues thanks to hundreds of conferences, panels and exhibitions organized.
Arkitera was awarded with the “Contribution to the Architectural Education” prize by the Turkish Freelance Architects Association (Turkiye Serbest Mimarlar Dernegi) in 2004.
