System to accelerate urban transformation against earthquakes
The rules of home ownership are changing with modular housing
Homera, Turkey's first industrial housing brand, changes the rules of home ownership and offers the opportunity to live in earthquake-safe buildings. Homera brings an alternative to the traditional method of home ownership in a period when it is becoming impossible to own a house. The company, which specializes in modular steel structures, meets its customers in Europe with its showroom opened in the Netherlands this month. Homera, which offers a ready-made housing package with every detail with its "From Factory to Ring" approach, also enables the rapid completion of urban transformation in cities with high earthquake risk such as Istanbul.
It is getting more and more difficult to own a house with the current methods. However, Homera, Turkey's first modular housing brand, will change this situation. Homera, which can make turnkey delivery in a short time with its "From Factory to Ring" approach, brings an alternative to the traditional method of owning a house. The company, which is a pioneer in the production of modular steel structures, also serves in Europe with its showroom opened in the Netherlands this month.
Homera, which can deliver a five-story apartment building in a habitable state in as little as 4-6 months, also creates an important opportunity for the rapid completion of urban transformation. Among the company's targets are the reconstruction and rapid securing of schools, dormitories, hospitals, fire brigade units in cities with high earthquake risk such as Istanbul, which would suffer great losses in case of damage.
Earthquake resistant steel structures
Homera houses, whose projects comply with sustainable design and engineering criteria, are produced with industrial steel structure system in Akkon Steel Factory, which has 11 thousand square meters of closed and 20 thousand square meters of open production area. Homera buildings, which comply with the principles of sustainability by being earthquake resistant, highly energy efficient and environmentally friendly, offer customers the chance to own a turnkey house in different sizes and designs, in any location, customizable, single or multi-storey.
Homera modular buildings, where every detail from the steel carrier system to the architectural design project, from the electrical-mechanical project to the interior architecture, is carefully planned, do not only offer housing solutions. Different types of buildings such as Club Marco Polo in Antalya, Kairos Hotel in Kaş and Tumba Sisli Vadi Hotel in Kartepe can also be built. Homera products, which are also in high demand abroad, have already been installed in Belgium, Austria and the Dominican Republic. It also attracts the interest of land owners and investors as it provides a fast return on investments by being built and realized in a short time.
The aim is to create awareness of safe and sustainable construction
Homera is one of the locomotive brands of Consera, the pioneer of building production in a factory environment, which aims to popularize building systems suitable for sustainability while building safe buildings, especially in our country, which is located in an earthquake zone. Melih Şimşek, Founder of Consera, emphasized that off-site construction, where production is carried out in the factory and assembled in the field, eliminates human error that can be encountered in on-site construction, and said, "With this method, both work and cost are more controlled in construction. Modular steel structures, with their fast construction and reliability, are the systems that produce the best solution for shelter, which is among the most prioritized needs in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and is still one of the most important problems of today. In addition, the fact that construction can be exported in a way that creates high added value creates a great income for our national economy. Homera, which offers a new generation housing methodology, contributes to the Turkish economy and exports with its projects. However, our main goal is to inform and develop the society and the sector about earthquake-safe steel structures and sustainable construction. For this reason, we attach great importance to R&D studies."
