Earth-bound

    Home in a sinkhole
                     Dealing with the familiar and unfamiliar

what makes us feel safe
familiar always feels safe
What kind of home experience does this unfamiliarity create?
considering feeling at home in sinkholes in Karapınar/Konya
unknown is always scary

The continuity of the place gives people sense of safety
what would be a home feel like in a place that embraces change

In solitude    we create our home experiences

a person is always dreaming of a home


searching for familiar and unfamiliar patterns of topography




 
                              






Pattern idea 
dividing the topograpghy into 3
outside of the sinkhole
transition
inside of the sinkhole





outside                          transition                                     inside


















creating more individual places 

at the same time in the transition part there is places for 2-3 people that communal cooking can be done

trying to understand what kind of home that be
