Our perception of the environment that surrounds us has a substantial effect on the quality of our lives. This perception is influenced by our aural senses as much as our visual senses. Therefore, increasing the acoustic comfort of our surroundings is an important aspect of architecture, as well as the visual aesthetics of the environment. EfserKara Acoustics and Architecture aims to increase the quality of your life by addressing both issues during the architectural design process.
Our company gives the best solutions to your needs on the subjects of architectural acoustics and architectural design.

Architecture
With the awareness of the effect of our visual perception over our psychology and quality of life, we approach the architectural design process by taking into account that our physical environment should be ergonomically and aesthetically fulfilling. The same notion applies to planning at any scale, whether it be an airport, a metro station, a city centre, or a regional plan.
Presenting innovative designs – which takes the balance between energy efficiency, sustainablity, function and budget into account – in accordance with the clients’ needs is a crucial aspect of our architectural standpoint, even when working with limited budgets.
