Project Descriptions
Gulhane Park is one of the oldest and most historical parks in Istanbul and has very important place in Turkish history. Gulhane Park is one of the ideal spots for you to rest under the centuries-old trees and read books, get away from the noise and crowds of the city and walk on the paths full of colorful flowers.

Gulhane Park, which is among the most beautiful parks of Istanbul, was first used as the outer garden of the palace during the Ottoman period. The fact that the tulips, various kinds of flowers and roses are located in the park has kept the name of Gülhane Park throughout history. The park, which has managed to preserve its richness since its past, is also known as Sarayburnu Park. It is located in Eminönü district of Fatih district and in 1912 it was removed from the palace garden and opened for public service.

Gülhane Park has witnessed many important events from a historical perspective with all its beauties. The Hagios Georgies Monastery and the Panagia Hodegetria Sacred Spring in the region made it valuable during the Byzantine period. At the same time, the 1839 Tanzimat Edict, one of the important developments in Ottoman history, was first read in Gülhane Park.

Ataturk's first statue erected in Turkey are located here. The statue was made by the Austrian Kripel and erected in 1926 where it is now. Moreover, in the ceremony held in Gulhane on November 24, 1928, Ataturk was given the title of “Head Teacher”. Ataturk introduced the Latin letters to the public on the blackboard he founded and gave his first lecture here.

Orion Series Garden Lighting Pole and Fixture, which has emerged from the combination of traditional design and elegant lines, has been preferred to be suitable for the historical atmosphere of Gulhane Park and to contribute to the integrity of the garden lighting application area. Outdoor lighting poles applied through the walkways which follows the park from begining to end. Lamp post body was made from aluminum and implemented special surface treatments to keep safe product from rust and other hamful effects of environment. HPS lamp option requested from our customer was implemented to products to illuminate urban area.

Orion Series Bollards is also requested to be the part of the landscape lighting project as the illuminate the side walkways and landscape area with led bulbs. Products painted white color to bring the sober and elegant  athmosphere in achieving the goal of enhancing the architectural forms by means of comfortable scenic lighting, with great attention to environmental sustainability and environmental harmony. 

The public lighting area was illuminated with our lighting poles which, service life is considerably longer than the industry standards. When redesigning the pedestrian zone and park lighting project of Gulhane Park, we benefited from the fact that the sophisticated and timeless design and extraordinary durability of the outdoor garden light pole luminaires.

The light34 lawn lights illuminate garden, walkways, landscape and also serve as entrance lighting. They not only ensure efficiently and significantly more cost-effective outdoor lighting project solutions but also fit in with the overriding aim of enhancing the potential of the night-time urban lighting and guaranteeing an even better lighting atmosphere. That is why we add the our path light model Orion Lawn Light to enrich the illuminance level and harmonize architectural elements in the park.

We reflected hospitality, functionality, serenity and refinement features with our traditional lighting fixtures which distinguish the project where, light emphasizes the perfection of nature, while at the same time, conferring a touch of contemporary feeling and definition.
