Playing the Urban Dystopia: Canal Istanbul

Videogame Project | AuraIstanbul

"What would happen if we used videogame mechanisms as new tools to solve urban problems and create urban simulations?".The project questions the future scenarios of the Canal Istanbul project. It aims to look at the issues thought to be caused by this mega-project, which could affect Istanbul's historical heritage, ecology, and urban macro form. The scenario layout consists of levels, each referring to alternative urban simulations and digital personas representing them.
