TRAVELThe fastest and most convenient transportation for those coming from Istanbul is provided by high speed train. It departs from Halkalı twice a day, from Söğütlüçeşme eight times a day and arrives in Eskişehir within three hours. From the train station, we provide transportation to Yaşam Village by shuttle.
You can come to Eskişehir by bus from other cities. Transportation to Life Village from the bus station is also provided by shuttle service. Life Village is about 15-minute drive from the center of Eskisehir. This distance is close enough to allow you to reach the city quickly when you need it, and not too distracting during the day. When you want to go to the city for shopping and spending time, you can use the shuttle services we provide at certain times during the day. ROOMS and BATHROOMSOur rooms are on the top floor of the building, separate from the offices and work areas. It can be given as single or double. The rooms do not have individual bathrooms, but there are plenty of them on the floor so there are no lines or any fuss at all. For 12 bedroom we have on the upper floor there are 4 bathrooms and 8 toilets.

WORKING AREASThe entire lower floor of the Art Colony building was designed with considering people's and groups' working needs. We pay particular attention to silence in the use of the building. We do not overlap the dates of the Artist Residancy with crowded trainings and meetings.
Downstairs there are a library, two spacious common working areas, a projection room and a private study room which you can use by booking in advance. For those who like to work alone, we provide a desk in the bedroom as well. Downstairs working areas are multipurposely designed, so they can be changed and re-arranged for different works, trainings and projects. For example, if you have a project that needs more than few people and space such as theater and dance, we prepare a suitable place in the main hall. Although the climate of Eskişehir is a bit harsh in winter, our large garden at the back can also be used as a lovely working area during spring and summer days. |
