Objectives of the Course Examining the new needs of the changing society and users and the basics of architecture (basic functions related with the basic needs, basic roles of architectural materials and technologies in design process, etc.).
Exploring the public and private conflict through examining interior and exterior spaces created by different cultures in the context.
Enriching the architectural design perspectives and representation potentials.
Comprehending the alternative ways of design as a research challenge.
Course Content Architectural Design Studio-I intend to focus on dwelling problems to explore not only interior-exterior or public-private conflict, but also to learn from material, structure interaction, and the relationship between spatial functions and basic needs of daily life and new daily life. Design research into historic and current examples and context will provide a background for the problem of dwelling. The design journey is based on a holistic approach (the role of natural, built and cultural environments; introduction to function, form, structure, and the principles of space organization as well as fundamental concepts of architecture; critical evaluation of contemporary architectural works; mappings, modelling and animation techniques, etc.).
