The Goldenhorn Haliç İstanbul
The Golden Horn is a flooded prehistoric estuary. It is 7.5 kilometers long and is 750 meters across at its widest. Its maximum depth, where it flows into the Bosphorus, is about 35 meters. It is today spanned by four bridges. Moving downstream, the first is the Haliç Bridge, literally Estuary Bridge. The former Galata Bridge was damaged by a fire in 1992; it was moved to the second position in pieces, re-assembled, and restored as the Eski Galata Bridge, literally Old Galata Bridge. The third one is the Atatürk (Unkapanı) Bridge. The current Galata bridge was completed in 1994. A fifth bridge is currently under construction to connect the subway lines of the Istanbul metro to the north and south of the Golden Horn.

Blom tilted the cube of a conventional house 45 degrees, and rested it upon a hexagon- shapedpylon. His design represents a village within a city, where each house represents a tree, and all the houses together, a forest.
