The Conquest of İstanbul is undoubtedly among the highlights of history. It was such an occurrence that its effects were among the major forces that altered the course of civilization. Beyond being a victory, it was also a story of innovation, engineering, design and craftsmanship. And creating new and impressive content and means for such an event that has been celebrated for more than 5 centuries, required some limits to be pushed and others to be broken.

We initiated the creative process by defining the origin of the project axes; originality. Although the story of the Conquest of İstanbul has been interpreted numerous times in different mediums, a unique design language and improved production specs should be able to ensure the sense of genuineness. The canvas was also a matter of high gravity since it was the main instrument of the targeted impact. Hence, we started to develop a multi-disciplinary production phase and the engineering of the largest scaff stage used in a one-day event.
