Eğirdir Elma Evi locates in a critical point on Isparta-Konya highway where it welcomes and salutes the ones coming to Eğirdir, it assumes threshold space characteristics. Threshold spaces are transition areas where something turns into something else and they hold the potential of representation. Elma Evi which is located in an urban threshold provides the task of the representation and introduction of Eğirdir with ‘Vitrin’ function. The Vitrin of Elma Evi represents Eğirdir in a symbolic way and Eğirdir Elma Evi is ready to be experienced via its multipurpose hall, exhibition hall and cafe functions at the moment when Vitrin threshold is crossed.
