Sasalı Biolab Project – İzmir, Turkey

Located in İzmir and designed by Mert Uslu Architecture he Sasalı Biolab Project stands out with its modern and sustainable architectural approach. Developed under the supervision of the İzmir Metropolitan Municipality, the building features Nova-Ash Cladding, was selected for its durability, aesthetic appeal, and eco-friendly properties. Thermally modified ash offers a rich texture and natural finish, blending beautifully into the surrounding landscape while providing long-lasting resistance to external weather conditions. The material’s low maintenance needs and environmental performance make it an ideal choice for public buildings like this one.
The photography, captured by ZM Yasa Photography, highlights the warmth and refinement Nova-Ash brings to the structure. Sasalı Biolab not only serves a functional role as a scientific space but also reflects the values of sustainable design and modern architectural expression in Turkey’s evolving public spaces.
