Parkopera hosts shows, concerts, and similar activities at certain hours of the day, and with its lounge, which is integrated with the park life throughout the day, the target is to host cultural events organized by those outside the institution and to make those events accessible to everyone on the neighborhood scale. The hall has a busy schedule with its show center, studio and rehearsal rooms as an opera hall, and the lounge looking at the park, opens to the park life in harmony with the daily rhythm of life on the neighborhood scale.

Parkopera, which is located in Antalya Muratpaşa on a parcel which is open all around and next to a neighborhood park, is first of all trying to minimize the mass required by program. The building has links with the apartment blocks all around it, and it produces a fragmented volumetric order that can also be observed from top. Two separate scales of the hall and the auxiliary spaces considering spatial, structural and functional properties of them are merged into unique language of the building.

Required spaces are organized in a way that allows the multi-purpose foyer to open up to the trees, the children and the voice of the street in the direction of park while locating the opera hall, the entrance for the artists, the rehearsal rooms, the studios and workshops in the southern part of the building. Therefore the building is shaped to fed from the daily life of the neighborhood.
