Houses, as living spaces, are shaped by human life. Houses can directly affect the lives and emotions of individuals. Many studies on this subject have shown that houses have a great influence on individuals. Based on this context, Kocaeli University Department of Architecture, second year, first semester Architectural Design 1 course was shaped by the question of whether the spaces that will trigger the creativity that an artist and his/her family need within the framework of their needs can be designed through the senses. Within the scope of the study, it is aimed to discuss and evaluate three projects worked on during a semester and to present a multisensory design approach to the artist's residence.

The numerous layerings that urban spaces have undergone throughout their history and the continuity of this layering in a space has a palimpsest quality. This study discusses the spatial dimension of the palimpsest concept through the winning project from an international architectural design competition. In this competition, which created an international platform for discussion, the design approaches of the projects in the award group were comparatively evaluated within the framework of the palimpsest concept. As a result of the evaluation, it was concluded that using the palimpsest nature of cities, especially in historical areas, as an input is a design approach that produces holistic solutions in many aspects, such as protection of the space's spirit, sustainability of collective memory and coexistence with the past.

The design of the house is influenced by both cultural values and choices. Houses reflect rules, norms and social relationships. The same way, houses replete with symbolic meanings. This research focuses on traditional Turkish houses and examines the links between the social norms of domestic spaces of the traditional house design. With this approach, the relationship between cultural-social values, norms and architecture had been analysed through traditional Turkish house in which different ethnical and cultural groups live. The study based on master student's research projects. Data of the norms for this paper came from naturalistic fieldwork around the Turkey. The research includes observation and interviews with members of the families as well as architectural analysis and photo documentation. The houses which are analysed, belongs to period before Turkish Republic. This paper is an examination of linkages between architectural artifacts selected or devised by social norms and social values such as extended family and the status of family within the community, relationships between men and women, neighbor relationships, the daily customs of the family, customs, beliefs and rituals within the life of the community, hospitality, religious beliefs and practices in Turkish Islamic tradition, relate to built form in Turkey. The aim of the paper is to explain architecture of Turkish house is an artifact of culture, which is a synthesis of whole Anatolia.

gained this identity as a result of rapidly developing
industrial initiatives, especially after the Republic.
Industrial investments made by the state within the
framework of industrial development plans until the
1950s were replaced by private capital investments
after 1950. With the support given to private capital,
industrial investments in the city gained momentum.
Especially around the D-100 highway, new industrial
areas have started to form. Kocaeli’s closeness to big
cities in terms of logistics, and generally having a flat
geography rich in water reserves, attracted domestic
and foreign capital to the city, and this situation started
to shape the city as an industrial city. Just as industrial
productions must be contemporary and original to meet
the needs of the age, the industrial structures in which
the productions are carried out must also have contemporary
and original spatial qualities. In this sense,
industrial buildings are important witnesses of history
in terms of reflecting the contemporary construction
technology and unique architectural understanding
of the period in which they were built. Industrial
buildings are also one of the most important areas in
the application of new technologies to architecture. The
applications in these structures also shed light on other
structures and building technologies.
In this context, Kazlı Leather Factory, designed by
Doğan Tekeli and Sami Sisa and built in Kocaeli in 1974,
was examined within the scope of the article. Today, the
building, which is idle and on the verge of demolition,
was deemed worthy of examination as it reflects the industrial
facility design approaches of Tekeli - Sisa with
its contemporary construction technology and modern
minimal architectural style.
The most important design criteria are to construct
industrial facilities quickly and cost-effectively, to be
illuminated by natural daylight, and to be designed for
all kinds of expansions. However, it is not correct to
provide only these conditions and to see the industrial
facility as a production-oriented structure. While
meeting all the functional requirements in the design
of industrial buildings, it is necessary to carry out the
design by considering the human factor in it and to
produce solutions that will enable the space to serve
people. Realizing all these requirements with modern
construction technology and a unique architectural
style is a subject that requires a lot of experience. Tekeli
and Sisa, who have designed and specialized in many
industrial structures since 1953, transferred their experience
gained over the years to Kazlı Leather Factory,
which was built in 1974. The most important feature of
Kazlı Leather Factory is to gather leather tanneries under
a single roof for the first time in Turkey and to carry
out production in a place whose workflow is designed
according to modern rawhide processing technology.

Sinema için bir oyuncu kadar etkili sayılabilecek sinemasal mekan, mimarlıkta insan yaşamını örgütleyen ve onu anlamlandıran bir unsurdur. Diğer türlerden farklı olarak bilimkurgu sineması, mekan tasvirlerinin günümüzden radikal bir şekilde farklılaştığı ütopik veya distopik gelecek öngörülerini sunmaktadır. 1980’lerle birlikte dünyada hızla gelişen teknoloji, bilimkurgu sinemasını da temelden etkileyerek yeni bir alt dalı olan Cyberpunk akımı ortaya çıkmıştır. Cyberpunk, sanayi sonrası modern toplumlarda yaşanan temel değişimlere eleştirel bir yaklaşım sunarken yakın gelecek öngörülerini, ileri teknoloji, sefil hayat, kaotik dünya konularını işlemekte ve kendi kurgusal mekanlarını üretmektedir. Michael Bay yönetmenliğindeki “Ada” filmi Bilimkurgu sinemasında Cyberpunk akımı içerisinde güncel filmler arasında önemli bir yere sahiptir. Film, beden üzerinden insanın bile metalaştırılabileceğini ve büyük şirketlerin elinde nasıl kontrol edilerek şekillendirilebileceğini gösteren karamsar bir senaryoyla kapitalizm eleştirisi yapmaktadır. 2005 Yapımı film, 2019 yılına distopik bir yakın gelecek öngörüsünde bulunmaktadır. Filmde, toplumun üst gelir grubu bireylerinin toplum üzerinde etkilerinin devam edebilmesi için her türlü sosyal ve etik değeri göz ardı ederek insan klonlamayı yasal hale getirmeleri ve bu klonları insan olarak değil ürün olarak nitelendirmeleri söz konusudur. Filmdeki kişisel, yarı kamusal ve kamusal mekanlar fiziksel ve psikolojik olarak tek tipleştirilmiş iktidar gözetiminde tutulan mekanlardır. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın amacı, bilimkurgu sineması alt kültürü olarak cyberpunk’ta zaman, mekan ve beden kavramlarının mimarlık sinema arakesitinde Ada (The Island) filmi üzerinden tartışılarak değerlendirilmesidir.

Every action becomes the very basis of its next step. It transforms its own experiences into information. It not only constitutes its own products but also benefits from traditionally constructed outer environment. Within this comprehension process, it also intervenes to its own space. At this point, the space which is produced by the body is seen as the result of interaction and motion. Existence of environmental conditions or desires of body determine the limits of spaces and creates the structural complexity. The gaining from the process of this realization is reflected to the whole space. Thus, spatial limits are composed as the results of this experience. From this point, body is under the influence of daily life (personal, physical, etc.). Duration spent in the spaces of daily life shape the experiences and creates spatial data through intellectual activity. As the result of the repetition in this organization of space, body couldn't determine the limits and it faces the existing limits. This is not identified as an experience. Interactive surfaces have perceptual, interdisciplinary existence but in spatial aspect, it has physical existence too. Between the range of space and perception, as an experience style body, even though being in physical space, interactive surfaces can carry the perceptual boundaries to different scales. In this way, experience is variable and it exceeds the spatial perception.

Societies feed on the experiences, traditions and customs that preceded them. Culture teachings are created, kept alive and shared by the “dominant ideas” of people living in the community. These teachings are solutions that have been tried for generations many times. When the level of satisfaction provided by traditional solutions to people decreases with changing environment and living conditions over time, culture starts to produce suitable solutions by adapting to new conditions. All these features of the culture represent a holistic system with continuity. The traces of culture are reflected in the most open forms of people's lives. In this sense, it can be said that every place that joins people's lives is an expression of culture. In architecture, cultural elements are seen as components that direct design in both material, form and spatial organizations. Architectural design process is fed not only by tradition, tradition and life, but also from climate, topography and region-specific qualities. The term “regionalism” can be defined as an architectural design approach, which, in parallel with these approaches, aims to develop unique and local solutions for a specific region, culture and climate, while also representing the identity of a particular culture in original ways through architecture. Unlike the international style, in other words, modernist doctrines, “regionalism” takes a stance against universal unification across the world. Critical regionalist approaches, dating back to ancient times, still maintain their effectiveness and importance in architectural discourses. Within the scope of research, an architectural project, which is prepared for the “Korean War Memorial Area and Visitor Center National Architectural Design Competition” held by Kırklareli - Luleburgaz Municipality (Turkey) were examined. Luleburgaz Municipality opened a national competition in order to display medals, photos and newspapers belonging to the 241st Infantry Regiment in the city of Luleburgaz. The architectural project designed with the “critical regionalist” approach for the competition. The project has been examined and evaluated comparatively in the context of architectural forms and construction methodologies between Turkish and Korean cultures.

However, as production and consumption change, traditional çarşıs lose their functions partly or completely, become idle, and have reduced quality of life in the course of time. The study area was selected from Izmit.The subject of the study is Kapanönü Çarşı, which is located in the historical city center of Izmit, has reached today with no change in its name, is maintaining its function of trade in the same place, and stands as one of the important traditional çarşıs of Izmit. Aim of the study is starting from characteristics of Kapanönü Çarşı to develop new suggestions to create a livable çarşı with the determine the state of authentic spatial characteristics, identity, sustainability, spatial quality features by users of the çarşı. The study revealed the spatial character and perception of Kapanönü Çarşı by city dwellers as well. Both the observations of the researchers and the result of survey with the users of the space must be made reorganization of Kapanönü Çarşı based on the problems and suggestions in the research.

Although architecture was born due to a basic human need, architectural understanding shaped by aesthetic thinking in humankind has been created in a long process throughout history. Although architectural productions are shaped in different physical environments and in different societies, they have been one of the most important productions representing society in the physical environment in various contexts throughout history. Representative powers of architecture and spatiality have been known by societies since time immemorial and have also been used for specific purposes. Since ancient history, architecture has sometimes represented social classes and economic structure, sometimes power, and sometimes current cultural structure and beliefs of society. While architectural products represented situations expressed through an architectural need in the pre-modern era, with the arrival of the modern era they began to represent themselves or their architects, beyond place. Among these architectural products are museums, which are exhibition areas. In the 20th century, the transformation of exhibition areas into objects of exhibitions themselves, beyond the mere functional aspect of exhibiting, was very common around the world. An example of this is the Istanbul Contemporary Arts Museum, which is still under construction. The structure is among the seven warehouses (Warehouse 5) [1] designed by one of the most important Turkish architects, Sedad Hakkı Eldem1.The aim of this study is to investigate and evaluate the transformation of architectural representation through exhibition areas via the transformation of Warehouse 5 into the Istanbul Art and Sculpture Museum. In the study, similar examples of existing structures transformed into exhibition areas while having different functions in an historical context have been researched and compared with Warehouse 5. Additionally, a literature review has been carried out on the relationship established by issues of exhibition and representation with the city.

Geleneksel Türk evinin mimari değerlerinden uzaklaşılmış, Türk aile yapısının ihtiyaçları incelenmeden tek tip seri konut üretimine geçilmiştir. Bu durum çağdaş konutları ‘yuva’ olma özelliğinden uzaklaştırıp ‘barınma’ birimlerine dönüştürmüştür. Tezin birinci bölümünde; çalışmanın amacı, yöntemi ve kapsamı açıklanmıştır. İkinci bölümde; mekan, konut ve kültür kavramları ile tezin kavramsal çerçevesi oluşturulmuştur. Bu bölümde kültürün mekanla ve konutla kurduğu ilişkiler irdelenmiştir. Üçüncü bölümde; modernleşme hareketleriyle birlikte Türkiye gündemine giren modern konut mimarisindeki tarihsel gelişim süreci apartman örnekleri üzerinden anlatılmıştır. Erken Cumhuriyet döneminden günümüze kadar geniş bir süreçte konut yapılarında tarihe ve geleneğe yapılan atıflar irdelenmiştir. Dönemler boyunca etkin olan mimari üsluplarda geleneksel izlerin apartman yapılarındaki karşılıkları aranmıştır. Dördüncü bölümde; çalışma alanı olan Kocaeli/İzmit’e yönelik veriler ışığında Demiryolu Caddesi üzerinde Cumhuriyet Döneminden günümüze inşa edilen Apartman yapıları çizimlerle desteklenerek tek tek açıklanmıştır. Her dönemin sonunda dönem içerisinde incelenen apartman yapılarının plan ve cephe özellikleri üzerinden analizler yapılmıştır. Tez çalışmasında, geleneksel dönemden çağdaş döneme kadar uzanan konut mimarisi değişim ve gelişim süreci Kocaeli/İzmit’de Demiryolu Caddesi örneği üzerinden incelenmiş olup; geleneksel konut mimarisinden kalan ve kaybedilen değerler yapılan analiz çalışması ile belirlenmiştir. Tezin bulgular ve değerlendirme kısmında analiz verileri; sonuç ve öneriler kısmında ise yapılan analiz çalışmalarından çıkartılan dönemsel sonuçlar ile geleceğin modern apartman konutları tasarlanırken geleneksel öğelerle yapılacak bir sentezin; mimari tasarım ve sosyal yaşantıya etkisi açıklanmıştır.

Cinematic space, which can be counted as important to an actor for cinema, is an element in architecture which organizes human life and makes it meaningful. Different from other types, science fiction cinema presents utopian and dystopian futures which differ radically from today's modern description. Improved technology starting from the 1980s has introduced a subbranch called Cyberpunk that affects science fiction cinema. Cyberpunk, while presenting a critical approach to basic changes faced in the modern public, discusses the near future, high-tech, miserable life. It addresses chaotic world subjects and creates its own spaces. In Cyberpunk, giant companies try to rebuild people technologically and mentally for their own economic and political benefit. Cyberpunk is the product of the clearance between the body with boundaries and the mind with unlimited imagination and is the derivation of the resistance of the body with life instinct to the weakness of the body and death. ‘The Island’, a movie directed by Michael Bay, has an important place among the contemporary movies having Cyberpunk movement in science fiction cinema. The movie criticizes capitalism with a pessimistic scenario in which even the human body can be commoditised and shaped under the control of giant companies. In the movie, human cloning is legalised by ignoring social and ethical values. The aim of the study is to evaluate Cyberpunk as a sub-culture by discussing the concepts of time, space and the body in ‘The Island’.

Space is a concept which takes place in architecture-cinema intersection and which is a basis for... more Space is a concept which takes place in architecture-cinema intersection and which is a basis for both disciplines. Cinematic space, which can be counted as important to an actor for cinema, is an element in architecture which organizes human life and makes it meaningful. Different from other types, science fiction cinema presents utopian and dystopian futures which differ radically from today's modern description. Improved technology starting from the 1980s has introduced a subbranch called Cyberpunk that affects science fiction cinema. Cyberpunk, while presenting a critical approach to basic changes faced in the modern public, discusses the near future, high-tech, miserable life. It addresses chaotic world subjects and creates its own spaces. In Cyberpunk, giant companies try to rebuild people technologically and mentally for their own economic and political benefit. Cyberpunk is the product of the clearance between the body with boundaries and the mind with unlimited imagination and is the derivation of the resistance of the body with life instinct to the weakness of the body and death. ‘The Island’, a movie directed by Michael Bay, has an important place among the contemporary movies having Cyberpunk movement in science fiction cinema. The movie criticizes capitalism with a pessimistic scenario in which even the human body can be commoditised and shaped under the control of giant companies. In the movie, human cloning is legalised by ignoring social and ethical values. The aim of the study is to evaluate Cyberpunk as a sub-culture by discussing the concepts of time, space and the body in ‘The Island’.

gained this identity as a result of rapidly developing
industrial initiatives, especially after the Republic.
Industrial investments made by the state within the
framework of industrial development plans until the
1950s were replaced by private capital investments
after 1950. With the support given to private capital,
industrial investments in the city gained momentum.
Especially around the D-100 highway, new industrial
areas have started to form. Kocaeli’s closeness to big
cities in terms of logistics, and generally having a flat
geography rich in water reserves, attracted domestic
and foreign capital to the city, and this situation started
to shape the city as an industrial city. Just as industrial
productions must be contemporary and original to meet
the needs of the age, the industrial structures in which
the productions are carried out must also have contemporary
and original spatial qualities. In this sense,
industrial buildings are important witnesses of history
in terms of reflecting the contemporary construction
technology and unique architectural understanding
of the period in which they were built. Industrial
buildings are also one of the most important areas in
the application of new technologies to architecture. The
applications in these structures also shed light on other
structures and building technologies.
In this context, Kazlı Leather Factory, designed by
Doğan Tekeli and Sami Sisa and built in Kocaeli in 1974,
was examined within the scope of the article. Today, the
building, which is idle and on the verge of demolition,
was deemed worthy of examination as it reflects the industrial
facility design approaches of Tekeli - Sisa with
its contemporary construction technology and modern
minimal architectural style.
The most important design criteria are to construct
industrial facilities quickly and cost-effectively, to be
illuminated by natural daylight, and to be designed for
all kinds of expansions. However, it is not correct to
provide only these conditions and to see the industrial
facility as a production-oriented structure. While
meeting all the functional requirements in the design
of industrial buildings, it is necessary to carry out the
design by considering the human factor in it and to
produce solutions that will enable the space to serve
people. Realizing all these requirements with modern
construction technology and a unique architectural
style is a subject that requires a lot of experience. Tekeli
and Sisa, who have designed and specialized in many
industrial structures since 1953, transferred their experience
gained over the years to Kazlı Leather Factory,
which was built in 1974. The most important feature of
Kazlı Leather Factory is to gather leather tanneries under
a single roof for the first time in Turkey and to carry
out production in a place whose workflow is designed
according to modern rawhide processing technology.
Within the scope of research, an architectural project, which is prepared for the “Korean War Memorial Area and Visitor Center National Architectural Design Competition” held by Kırklareli - Luleburgaz Municipality (Turkey) were examined. Luleburgaz Municipality opened a national competition in order to display medals, photos and newspapers belonging to the 241st Infantry Regiment in the city of Luleburgaz. The architectural project designed with the “critical regionalist” approach for the competition. The project has been examined and evaluated comparatively in the context of architectural forms and construction methodologies between Turkish and Korean cultures.
power, and sometimes current cultural structure and beliefs of society. While architectural products represented situations expressed through an architectural need in the pre-modern era, with the arrival of the modern era they began to represent themselves or their architects, beyond place. Among these architectural products are museums, which are exhibition areas. In the 20th century, the transformation of exhibition areas into objects of
exhibitions themselves, beyond the mere functional aspect of exhibiting, was very common around the world. An example of this is the Istanbul Contemporary Arts Museum, which is still under construction. The structure is among the seven warehouses (Warehouse 5) [1] designed by one of the most important Turkish architects, Sedad Hakkı Eldem1.The aim of
this study is to investigate and evaluate the transformation of architectural representation through exhibition areas via the transformation of Warehouse 5 into the Istanbul Art and Sculpture Museum. In the study, similar examples of existing structures transformed into exhibition areas while having different functions in an historical context have been researched and compared with Warehouse 5. Additionally, a literature review has been carried out on the relationship established by issues of exhibition and representation with
the city.
