Ankara Castle, once a prominent symbol of the city's rich historical fabric, has gradually lost its significance, allure, and distinctiveness over the years. However, a proposal has been put forward to restore its former eminence by repurposing it as an art gallery. The addition of inflatable balloon structures to Ankara Castle, which expose its multi-layered composition, aims to generate a sense of curiosity and captivation. The advantage of these inflatable elements is their ability to be easily dismantled without causing any harm to the original castle structure.
The deliberate choice of a vibrant pink hue, in stark contrast to the castle's traditional color palette, aims to emphasize the new layer and create a captivating visual experience when beholding the castle from its surroundings. The intention is to revive the castle's popularity by reintegrating it into the cultural landscape and to pass on its multi-layered history to future generations.
