架构师提供的文本描述。天空花园是奥尔塔克广场上的一个悬空花园，它是伊斯坦布尔最具旅游特色和最繁忙的广场之一。在这样一个拥挤的地区，把一个花园放在地上，会减少可行走的表面，使广场更加密集。相反，我们建议在保持地面畅通的同时，把花园挂起来。我们用广场上现有的板子作为新花园的基础，在阳光明媚的日子里，它也将用作一个用花盆做成的天篷。

Text description provided by the architects. Sky Garden is a suspended garden in Ortaköy Square which is one of the most touristic and busiest squares in Istanbul. Putting a garden on the ground in such a congested area would reduce the walkable surface and make the square even more dense. Instead, we proposed to hang the garden while keeping the ground still accessible. We used the existing slab in the square as a base for the new garden which will also serve as a canopy made of pots during sunny days.

这个花园里有各种各样的植物，在花节期间也提供座位和阴影。花园被悬挂起来，就像一个屋顶，人们可以呆在下面看博斯普鲁斯。就像一棵有着不同枝条的树，花园在天空和博斯普鲁斯之间飞翔，每一只锅都有，而滑轮系统则让花盆向下靠近游客。

This garden with assorted plants, provides seating and shadow as well, during the flower festival. Being suspended, the garden acts as a roof which people can stay under and watch Bosphorus. Just like a tree with different branches, the garden flies between the sky and the Bosphorus with each pot, while the pulley system lets the pots go down for a closer look of visitors.

让吊罐上下移动的机构是一个简单的滑轮系统。由于盆的重量相等，它们在平衡时保持一致。如果来访者把其中一个罐子拉得更近一些，那么等量的罐子就会被提起。

The mechanism that lets the hanging pots move up and down, is a simple pulley system. Since the pots are equally weighted, they remain aligned when in balance. If a visitor pulls one of the pots to look at the plant closer, than the equivalent pot is lifted.

我们认为公共安装是质疑架构师的设计能力的一种工具。当访问者能够更改安装时，架构师不再能够控制表单，直到某个点。对我们来说，即使在这个项目中做一些小动作，扩大控制的边界也是一种富有挑战性的经验，而临时安装则敦促改造一个既有的公共空间。

We consider public installations as a tool to question the architect’s power over design. When the visitor is being able to change the installation, architect is no longer able to control the form, up to a certain point. For us, it is a challenging experience to expand the borders of control even with small gestures like in this project, while the temporary installation urges to transform an established public space.
