Turkish architects are creating line drawings of protest shelters and structures following the recent occupation of Istanbul's Gezi Park.
Thousands of citizens took to the streets earlier this month to join one of Turkey's largest anti-government demonstrations in decades and non-profit organisation Herkes Icin Mimarlik - which translates as Architecture For All - has since initiated an archive of photographs and drawings, documenting the makeshift shelters, tents, and other temporary structures that have been constructed.
