Spatial Concept
A Meaning on Every Floor of Life
Gaya is not a building — it's a space of balance that reminds us life goes on. Each floor represents a different stage of life, where colors soften and light grows as you go up.
01 / 05
Ground Floor
Roots and Welcome
"Colors meet here; life blossoms anew."
Gaya's heart is on the ground floor. This is where the first contact between the individual and the space takes place — a sense of trust, belonging and warmth is created here. The ground floor is also where the natural balance of the interior is reflected onto the façade — natural stone, green accents and indoor-outdoor continuity carry the feeling of nature into the space. The garden is an extension of the ground floor; the green tones inside turn into rainbow-like colors outdoors.
02 / 05
1st Floor
Living Together and Sharing
"The color of laughing, remembering and sharing together."
This floor is designed as the space where the sense of community is felt most intensely. Shared lounge areas, small socializing nooks and triple rooms are arranged with this in mind. The material language is supported with warm wood surfaces, and lighting is in a soft, daylight tone that supports the energy of the space. Using different colors together in the seating areas sends the message that individual differences can coexist within a wholeness.
03 / 05
2nd Floor
Peace and Balance
"Time slows here, silence speaks."
The middle floor represents the calm, balanced period of life. Here colors cool, sounds soften, light becomes airier. Wall colors in the rooms are built with soft tonal transitions, supported by blue-green textiles. The shared lounge areas on this floor are designed around individual quiet and focus; reading nooks, planted alcoves and large windows strengthen the connection with nature.
04 / 05
3rd Floor
Memories and Light
"Life meets the light here, love stays green."
This floor represents the stage of maturity and remembrance in life. Here colors are lighter, light is more abundant; Gaya's face "at peace with its memories" appears on this floor. This floor holds 2 single, 3 double and 3 triple rooms; brightness, airiness and visual calm take center stage. In the bathrooms, white ceramic surfaces are paired with green tile details, underlining the relationship between nature and cleanliness.
05 / 05
4th Floor
Legacy and Horizon
"The light of wisdom spreads to the horizon."
The top floor of the building represents the point of wisdom that life arrives at, and the legacy of that wisdom passed on to younger generations. Wide terraces and panoramic views remind residents of the bigger picture of life on the floor where the gaze opens to the horizon. In the memory corner, residents share their past identities (teacher, doctor, artist, engineer, parent...), passing their experience on to younger generations — this is the topmost, brightest color of Gaya's rainbow.
