Existing-condition photographs of Mıstıkoğlu Soap Factory show stone walls, broad arched openings and a stair descending to the courtyard. Unroofed spaces contain vegetation and surface loss. The design visualisations propose roof and circulation relationships for these stone spaces; they are not photographs of completed works.
