Responding to blocked pedestrian routes and weak urban connectivity, the project introduces a main pedestrian axis that links key landmarks, courtyards, and public nodes across the site. By integrating shaded walkways, semi-open thresholds, and courtyards into the existing historic fabric, the project improves movement and social experience with a reconfiguration of Bergama\u2019s solid\u2013void relationship. Through a contemporary interpretation of the stoa and courtyard, the project revitalizes public space while making Bergama\u2019s historical layers legible within everyday urban life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr
