Longevity Ankara: The Headquarters of Longevity by Design
Ankara is not simply one market among the 19+ projects Sabina Malikova Design Office has completed across Türkiye, the UK, Germany and Azerbaijan — it is the headquarters. Anyone searching for longevity Ankara arrives at a specific address: NeXT Level, Çankaya, where the Longevity by Design methodology was developed, tested in completed local projects, and presented as the opening keynote of The Longevity Show Ankara on 13 June 2026.
Where the methodology is made
Sabina Malikova founded the studio in 2017, four years after completing her BFA at Bilkent University, and has run it from Çankaya ever since. The London office at 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, and the Baku office handle international delivery, but every methodological decision originates in Ankara. Longevity by Design rests on four measurable pillars: circadian lighting (CLCI, 4000–5000K by day, 2200–2700K in the evening), biophilic content (BCS, at least three natural elements per space), air quality (IAQM, HEPA-13 filtration with MVHR, PM2.5 held below the WHO 2021 limit of 5 µg/m³), and acoustics (AHR, under 55 dB, in line with WHO Europe 2018 guidelines).
Documented outcomes in Ankara
The clearest evidence sits in a 240 m² Ankara residence completed in 2025. Over six months of post-occupancy tracking, the household recorded a 38% improvement in sleep quality, a 29% reduction in perceived stress on the PSS-10 scale, and a 50% reduction in pediatric allergy symptoms (studio project data). Alongside it, the studio has delivered completed Ankara commissions including an office design, a bedroom design, and a coffee corner — smaller in scope, but built to the same four-pillar specification. These are not renderings or concepts; they are occupied spaces with before-and-after numbers.
Why measurement matters more than styling
The research case for designing interiors around health is well established. Klepeis and colleagues (2001) found people spend roughly 90% of their time indoors; the WHO (2016) attributes about one in four deaths worldwide to environmental factors. Intervention studies point the same way: Figueiro et al. (Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, 2020) reported sleep-quality scores improving by roughly a third under circadian-effective lighting in an RCT, and Hunter et al. (Frontiers in Psychology, 2019) measured cortisol falling around 21% per hour of nature contact. The Ankara studio treats these findings as design inputs, not decoration.
Frequently asked questions
Where is the longevity Ankara design studio located?
Sabina Malikova Design Office is headquartered at NeXT Level, Çankaya, Ankara. Founded in 2017, the studio also operates offices in London (71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden) and Baku, but Ankara is its home base and the place where the Longevity by Design methodology is developed.
What measurable results has the studio documented in Ankara?
In a 240 m² Ankara residence completed in 2025, six-month tracking showed sleep quality up 38%, PSS-10 stress scores down 29%, and pediatric allergy symptoms down 50% (studio project data). Other completed Ankara work includes an office design, a bedroom design, and a coffee corner.
What is Longevity by Design?
The studio's methodology, built on four measurable pillars: circadian lighting (4000–5000K day, 2200–2700K evening), at least three natural elements per space, air quality held below WHO's 5 µg/m³ PM2.5 limit via HEPA-13 and MVHR, and acoustics under 55 dB. It launched as the opening keynote at The Longevity Show Ankara on 13 June 2026.
