Corporate Identity and Spatial Fiction in Service Building Design: Kars Land Registry and Cadastre Directorate Service Building Sample

Abstract

Public spaces, which are accessible spaces that are formed according to the needs and wishes of the people, managed and controlled by a government agency, are the common space. Public responsibility in the axis of service buildings, which takes place in the collective memories of the users, ensures social sustainability. Corporate identity and institutional needs shape the architecture in these buildings. Land Registry and Cadastre Directorate Service Buildings should be public, accessible buildings that contain office areas and serve the public, where property information in the land registry and cadastre archives is stored. The scope of this study is to describe the design and planning process of the Kars Land Registry and Cadastre Office Building together with its corporate identity and spatial organization. The study focuses on the architectural design process. The aim of this study, which deals with this process together with the requirements that shape the design and provide functionality, is to determine the basic qualities and needs for similar public service buildings, and to share the experience of the building design process. It is expected that the study will help in the creation of a needs program, and will be a source for space setup and organization.
