2000’ler Türkiye’sinde “Mekân - Mesken” Kavramlarının ‘Değer’ Kavramı Üzerinden Sorgulanması: Kuramsal Bir İnceleme
(2018) Atakan, Gökçe; 206007
Sürdürülebilirliğin önemli bir parçası olan kültürel sürdürülebilirlik, mekân tasarımının en önemli konularından biri olarak düşünülür. Kültürün değişken yapısı, farklı dönemler için farklı çevresel değerler sağlar. Bu nedenle, yapılı çevrenin değerlerinin kültürel sürdürülebilirliği sorgulamak için önemli bir veri sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2000 sonrası Türkiye’de üretilmiş olan konut seçenekleri ve etkileri hakkında farklı disiplinlerde yapılmış olan tespitleri bir araya getirerek, mekân tasarımının ‘değer’ parametresi üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmaktadır. Madea tarafından, toplumsal hedefler ve niteliksel özelliklerle açıklanan tasarımın değeri (2006), bu çalışmada mekân ve mesken kavramlarını değerlendirmek üzere ölçüt olarak seçilmiştir. Toplumsal değer alt ölçütü ‘kültür – toplum’ olarak, niteliksel değer alt ölçütü ise göstergebilim üzerinden ‘kimlik – birey’ olarak belirlenmiştir. Kuramsal altyapısı literatür taraması yöntemi ile yapılmış olan çalışma, Anadolu ve Türkiye konut gelişim sürecinin ışığında, 2000 sonrası sunulan konut örneklerini mekân ve mesken kavramları bağlamında okumaktadır. Çalışmada yapılan değerlendirilme sonucunda, mekân tasarımı için olası öneriler verilmektedir.

A comparative research on space of women in prayer place interiors of celestial religions: Cases from istanbul
(2020) Disli, Gulsen; Ozcan, Zuhal
Cross-cultural comparison has been used in architecture mostly to discuss the components of culture, knowledge, and value systems, yet to date there is not a specific comparative study on gendered architecture in prayer places of celestial religions, namely Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Hence, this study aims to reveal how attendance of women in prayer places with different national, historic, religious, and cultural characteristics shaped architectural space organization and to assess potential similarities and differences of women’s section in prayer spaces of celestial religions by examining literature survey, archival and historic research, including field observations. In addition to general observations in building scale, some exemplary historic synagogues, churches, and mosques in Istanbul still in use have been chosen as case studies, and their plan typologies, as well as types and locations of women’s galleries/sections have been discussed. Cross-cultural comparison parameters were; development of women’s section in prayer places as a structured architectural space and basic architectural terminologies used to define women’s section. The major conclusion of the study is that originally women had right to worship in prayer spaces without any physical separation in all three religions, yet in time the place of women had a more defined/divided/structured character especially in Islam and Judaism. The study also indicates that while at present day, gendered architecture is still the predominant approach in Islam and in Orthodox Judaism; mix congregation in a single-unsegregated space for both sexes is more common in contemporary society of Christianity.

A Review of Hammams of the Southeastern Region of Anatolia
(2019) Ekinci Dağtekin, Emine; Urak, Gediz; 1487
The differences in the process of formation, purpose of construction, the extent and the materials of cultural heritage also render a difference in the decision making and approach to its preservation and restoration. However a common decision making in terms of preservation can be made in buildings that are located within the same compound or region that have a cultural continuity and that sustain similar typologic values. The hammams that are located within the boundaries of the Southeastern Anatolia Region remain as local and rear buildings depending on the climate of the region, the materials that are used and their construction techniques despite bearing common characteristics with many others that have been built in Anatolia. Forty hammams in the region have been reviewed in terms of their typologies, architectural values and the status they had been preserved in within the scope of this article and certain suggestions have been developed for the purposes of establishing common decisions in their preservation and their passing on to the future.

Acoustics and Speech Privacy in Open-Plan Offices: A Case Study on Computer-Based Task Performance
(2018) Kitapçı, Kıvanç
The aim of this study is to find out the effects of speech and speech intelligibility on computer-based task performance in open-plan offices. The research was conducted in a real open-plan office environment to include the open-office experience of subjects to the analysis. STM Bilkent Office was selected as the case, and 40 available open-office occupants were participated to the study. The experiment consists of two main phases. In the first phase, acoustical simulation of the site was done, to derive distribution graphs for speech related room acoustics parameters. In the second phase, occupants’ computer-based task performances were tested under three different sound environments, which are continuous noise, speech and masked speech. According to statistical analysis of the performance test, and the acoustical properties of the case STM, suggestions for renovation were discussed. It was found that effects of intelligible speech on occupants’ task performance are only psychological, because it is significant that there is no difference between results of performance test. However, all of the occupants respond to the questionnaires that speech sound environment was the most distracting one. Proposal for renovation was given to minimize the effects of intelligible speech on occupants for preventing the long-term effects on occupants’ health.

An analysis on mixed-use high-rise residential complexes in Istanbul as to their prioritization of evaluation categories in LEED
(Çankaya University Press, 2018) Süzer, Özge; Yılmaz, Meltem; 27418
The most globally used environmental assessment tool; LEED, offers the certification of projects according to the evaluation criteria of green buildings. Furthermore, emerging mixed-use high-rise residential complexes (MHRC) in metropolitans like Istanbul draw attention, as they help reduce carbon emissions by providing various facilities in one entity for its residents. Yet, they also have negative effects on resources, due to excessive energy consumptions owing to their high user capacities. The objective of this study is to analyse LEED certified MHRC in Istanbul, regarding their prioritization of evaluation categories. LEED’s database revealed nine certified MHRC under the NC scheme. Based on their gained points, mean ranks ( ) of categories were calculated, which indicated the priorities given by this building typology in Istanbul. The obtained category priority order was then compared to the one implied by LEED’s assigned category weights. It was found that EA gained much lower attention than needed.

Analysing Sound Environment and Architectural Characteristics of Libraries through Indoor Soundscape Framework
(Polska Akad Nauk, 2016) Dökmeci Yörükoğlu, Papatya Nur; Kang, Jian; 214925
This study presents the indoor soundscape framework in detail by describing the variables and factors that form an indoor soundscape study. The main objective is to introduce a new indoor soundscaping framework and systematically explain the variables that contribute to the overall evaluation of an indoor soundscape. Hence, the dependencies of physical and psychoacoustical factors of the sound environment and the spatial factors of the built entity are statistically tested. The new indoor soundscaping framework leads to an overarching evaluation perspective of enclosed sound environments, combining objective room acoustics research and noise control engineering with architectural analysis. Therefore, it is hypothesised that case spaces with certain plan organisations, volumetric relations, and spatial referencing lead to differentiated sound pressure level (SPL) and loudness (N) values. SPL and N parametric variances of the sound environments are discussed through the statistical findings with respect to the architectural characteristics of each library case space. The results show that the relation between crowd level variances and sound environment parametric values is statistically significant. It is also found that increasing the atrium height and atrium void volume, the atrium's presence as a common architectural element, and its interpenetrating reference and domain containment results in unwanted variances and acoustic formations, leading to high SPL and N values.

In this study, the structure of the settlement areas in the historical texture and the measures that could be used in the history of using environmental energy and energy in the residential architecture in the most effective way were investigated and the effects of these measures on life style were examined both in urban and residential dimensions. The study was sampled in Kızılcaşar Village of İncek district in Ankara, which is located in the Central Anatolia Region, which has a hot and dry climate. This review showed that; local and historical urban and residential architecture, first of all, respect for each other, not only in cultural dimensions but also in environmental dimensions, which are crucial in such settlement areas. The interrelationships and paths between residential settlements in the village are formed within a certain respect in order to provide water and effective usage of the stream for all the residential units. At the same time in the settlement, relations between the houses, effective use of sunlight in the space during the summer and winter periods enables the use of heat and lighting energy in the most efficient way. Similarly, using air currents increases air quality. In this respect, it is important to ensure natural ventilation and coolness during hot weather and decrease air pollution during winter. Thereby, indoor air quality is improved in all seasons. In addition, in these residential structures, energy is provided for other requirements such as drying of laundries and protection of food from hot weather.

Architecture and Ceramics
(Elsevier Science, 2015) Berker, Olgu Sümengen
Most of the different art disciplines, meet each other on some intersections during the creation process. The art comes into life from the needs of human beings. Therefore the formation of these intersections are not so surprising for the art era. The aim of this paper is to set forth the association of architecture and ceramic art and interaction between them especially by means of the abstraction of contemporary ceramic artworks. Notions like inner space and outer space are mostly considered basic concepts of ceramic art. This conceptual consideration gains an importance when these concepts are viewed from the architectural perspective. Because these notions are also basic notions of architecture. While architecture transforms these notions into forms, it also creates outer spaces for the ceramic artworks. In this paper some chosen examples of ceramics are referenced from the ancient times until 20th century (when ceramic was accepted as an art discipline to express the ancient association of these two art disciplines. Then the artworks of contemporary ceramic artists are featured in terms of conceptual basis, styles, production methods and processes, and the opportunities that comes from the nature of ceramic materials. Abstracting the expressions of the contemporary ceramic artists in the architectural manner, resulted as the displaying how do these two art disciplines come together on the concept of inner and outer space.

Assessment of Spatial Factors Influencing User Satisfaction in Quick-Casual Restaurants
(2022) Saleh Ahmadi, Reda R.; Akbay, Saadet; 21742
Users' evaluations of the restaurant environment are influenced by various design factors and their level of satisfaction and comfort, of which colour is an essential component. Several studies in the literature have demonstrated the influence of colour in interior design on human behaviour and psychology in various contexts. This study investigates the spatial factors influencing users' satisfaction in quick-casual restaurants. User satisfaction was measured using four major elements: product, service, price, and physical environment. This study used a questionnaire to assess user satisfaction in four quick-casual restaurants in Ankara, Turkey. The emphasis on colour effects was intended to evaluate the physical environment of the restaurants. The study results, which included the participation of 120 restaurant users, show that participants rated the various restaurant environments in a variety of ways. The assessments provided by the participants are statistically tested for significant differences based on gender, frequency of restaurant usage, and colour properties for both user satisfaction and the evaluation of the physical environment using one-way between groups of variance (ANOVA) (p < 0.05). The findings show that demographics have a limited influence on restaurant user satisfaction, though it varies depending on colour properties. Additionally, the results suggest that the environmental colours of quick-casual restaurants significantly influence user satisfaction, overall satisfaction levels, and the evaluation of the physical environments

Assessment of the energy savings and CO2 emissions reduction of glass structures through alternative demolition scenarios
(2016) Çelebi, Gülser; Tuna, Merve; Veer, Frederic; 2919
Glass is a material that has been significantly increasing its role in architecture in recent decades. Although glass is a material that can survive long, as can be seen from the archaeological pieces in many museums, in practice the glass structures that built nowadays have a finite life time. A notorious case is the original New York Apple Cube, which was removed and replaced within several years of original completion.Whatever the eventual lifetime of the structure, there will be a point where the structure needs to be demolished. This introduces critical questions about the relation between ecological impact and the demolition methods and procedure. This paper looks at the eco-impact of different end of life scenarios of glass structures, using the Haarlem glass cube as a well-documented example to determine the differences between various ends of life scenarios.

Yaşam Dostu Tasarım ya da son dönemde yaygın kullanımı ile Biyofilik Tasarım (Biophilic Design) kavramı bir tasarım eylemi olarak aslında yeni bir kavram değil. İnsanın, doğayla olma, doğayla bağlantı kurma ve doğada olma içgüdülerine dayalı doğuştan gelen eğilimlerinin tümü Biyofili kavramı kapsamında tanımlanmaktadır. Biyofilik Tasarım ya da Yaşam Dostu Tasarım kavramı ise içinde bulunduğumuz yapılı çevrenin yenilikçi bir bakış açısı ile doğayla bağlantılı olarak tasarlanmasıdır. Peyzaj Mimarlığı en genel tanımı ile sanat, çevre, mimari, mühendislik, sosyoloji ve tasarım unsurlarının tümünü bir arada kapsayan farklı ölçek ve kapsamlarda hem açık alan hem kapalı mekanların tasarlanması pratiğidir. 21. yüzyılın iç mimari pratiği dikkate alındığında, iç mekan kurgusunda hiç olmadığı kadar biyofilik tasarım anlayışının tasarımcılar tarafından benimsendiği ve özellikle stres düzeyinin yüksek olduğu kamusal mekanlarda doğaya dönük, doğaya karışan ve/veya doğadan esinlenen tasarım yaklaşımlarının gün geçtikçe daha da kuvvetlendiği gözlenmektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel odağı biyofilik tasarım kapsamında Peyzaj Mimarlığı ve İç Mimarlık alanlarının etkileşimi ile yapılı çevre ile doğanın bütünleştirilmesi ile daha konforlu ve sağlıklı yaşam mekanlarının tasarlanmasında disiplinlerarası olasılıkların örnekler üzerinden değerlendirilmesidir. Bu kapsamda ülkemizde her iki alanda eğitim veren farklı isimlerde ve farklı akademik yapılar altında olan programların müfredat yapılarının karşılıklı olarak karşılaştırılması ile mevcut durum değerlendirilmesi yapılmaktadır. Çeşitli kapsamdaki fakülteler altında eğitim vermekte olan Peyzaj Mimarlığı, Kentsel Tasarım ve Peyzaj Mimarlığı, İç Mimarlık ve İçmimarlık ve Çevre Tasarımı programlarının müfredat yapıları incelendiğinde, bazen aynı fakülte altında bile yer almalarına rağmen, çok az programda karşılıklı olarak disiplinlerarası ders önerildiği izlenmiştir. Yaşam dostu tasarım kapsamında iki disiplin arasındaki diyaloğun kuvvetlendirilmesi ve bunun öncelikle eğitimden başlaması gerektiği vurgulanmaktadır.

Sürdürülebilirlik, çevre ile ilişki içinde olan disiplinler için “yaşam”ı ifade eder. Tüm varlıklar ekosistem adı verilen holistik bütünlük içindedirler. Ekosistem canlı organizmalar, insan toplulukları ve inorganik varlıklardan meydana gelir. Ekosistemdeki bu varlıklara sürdürülebilir yapılı çevreler tasarlamak ve üretmek ise her disiplinin sorumluluğu altındadır. Mimarlık bir dizi ilişkili eylemler ve süreçlerle çevreyi etkiler. Bir bina inşa edildikten sonra çevre ile uzun süreli etkileşim içine girer. Bu bağlamda, sürdürülebilir tasarımın amacı çevreyi güvence altına alarak, insanların sağlık ve güvenliğini sağlayan mimari çözümler bulmaktır. Bu araştırma da mimarlık disiplini ile doğrudan ilişkili olan, çevre ile dost tasarımda etkin olan faktörleri ve stratejileri analiz etmek üzere ele alınmıştır. Çalışma bir literatür araştırmasıdır ve ilgili alanlarda farklı disiplinlere göndermeler yapılarak içerik düzenlenmiştir. Bu bağlamda, kavramsal bir metod çerçevesinde sürdürülebilir mimarlıkta İlkeler, Stratejiler, Başarma Yolları ve Yöntemler başlıklarıyla irdelenmektedir.

(2021) Karakuş, Filiz; Gediz Urak, Zehra; 1487
Purpose In this study, the settlement located in Koyunpazarı Slope and Hisar (Atpazarı) Square, which has an important position in the Atpazarı-Koyunpazarı-Samanpazarı area, which is the oldest part of the Ankara-Ulus Historical City Center, was examined in a way to include Çengelhan and Çukurhan. With this study, it is aimed to determine the changes and conservation problems in the field and to give direction to the changes planned for the future in the area. Design/Methodology/Approach Analysis and evaluation studies conducted in 1998 have been repeated in the mentioned area. Research and surveys have been conducted on the number of buildings in the area, the number of floors, the physical conditions of the buildings, the number of sub-units, types of activities, ownership status, frequency of purchasing goods, types of transportation, spatial competence, infrastructure competencies and future expectations of the working population. Findings As a result of these studies, the changes and problems occurred in the period from 1998 to 2020 have been determined. It has been observed that there are serious changes in the area due to cultural tourism, as in all over the world and in our country. The infrastructural deficiencies are the main problems identified in the area. Furthermore, it has been observed that the traffic problem has not been solved completely and also some buildings need repair. Research Limitations/Implications The fact that the field of study could not be expanded due to the application of the survey questions in the field of study in 1998 constitutes the limitations of this study. Social/Practical Implications With this study, it is aimed to draw attention to the conservation of the historical environment in Koyunpazarı Street and Atpazarı Square, which is an important point of the Ulus Historical City Center, and to create a social awareness about the preservation of the area in question. Originality/Value This study is significant as it discusses the conservation problems in one of the oldest areas of Ankara and aims to give direction to future changes in the field by formulating proposals for the solution of these problems.

Colour harmony: The ideality of pleasurableness
(2017) Akbay, Saadet; Joao João Durão, Maria; 21742
The search for the essence of colour harmony has a long tradition that, being a quest for aesthetic values, remains a contemporary question insofar as it addresses the interrelated issues of both beauty and pleasure. Colour harmony has been discussed in terms of two different points of view. As a measurement of aesthetics, the researches of colour harmony are based on the discovery of its systematic rules by identifying the relationship between colours and its aesthetic value in beauty and harmony. The proportional and orderly arrangements of colours and their relations to mathematics are the main concerns of this first approach. As a measurement of emotion, colour harmony is regarded as subject matter of pleasure, subjective feeling which is peculiar to an individual. Relying on the second approach, many studies have been conducted to identify the reasons behind why colour combinations are perceived as beautiful, pleasant, and harmonious. Thus, this paper is a retrospective review of the literature of colour harmony, its theories, and principles considering the two approaches. The assumption is that, in either case, colour harmony is grounded in a search for the ideality of pleasurableness.

Comparing Turkish and European noise management and soundscape policies: a proposal of indoor soundscape integration to architectural design and application
(2019) Erçakmak, Beyza; Dökmeci Yörükoğlu, Papatya Nur; 214925
: Improving soundscape studies and policies states that the soundscape approach, which also considers noise interventions, should replace noise management. However, a considerable number of soundscape studies have been concerned with the quality of acoustic environments of open and urban public spaces. This study focuses on indoor soundscaping and its possible integration into the architectural design and application process. Therefore, the present and ongoing Turkish and European soundscape and noise management policies were evaluated in detail and compared in order to characterize the gap regarding the state of indoor soundscaping between the literature and the policy development level. Furthermore, we identified and classified factors and methods which have an influence on indoor soundscaping to be integrated into the final proposed model. As a result of the detailed evaluation regarding policies and indoor soundscaping principles, five stages were proposed that can be used in an integrated indoor soundscape model: (1) the establishment of a topic specific institution or working group on indoor soundscaping; (2) the preparation of a standard that includes definitions, indoor soundscape factors and methods; (3) the preparation of an indoor soundscape directive; (4) the preparation of indoor soundscape guidelines; and (5) the provision of maintenance and supervision by experts and authorities.

Critical Aspects, Motivators and Barriers of Buildıng-Integrated Vegetation
(2020) Almuder, Monder M.; Süzer, Özge; 27418
Purpose Green buildings which provide improved user health conditions and environmentally responsible applications have gained significant attention, due to the increasing environmental problems, particularly caused by the construction industry at the global scale. However, vegetation is still not sufficiently integrated into buildings, even though numerous benefits of plants have been proven by many studies in literature. This research aims to find out the opinions of professionals and academicians in architecture-related fields regarding the critical aspects, as well as the motivators and barriers faced in BIV applications, namely; green roofs, green walls and interior gardens. Hence, it strives to help increase their application rates by underlining the significant issues to be considered. Design/methodology/approach As to fulfilling these objectives, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 120 participants with varying professions including architects, landscape designers and civil engineers, from four countries. Findings The results of this study pointed out that, healthcare buildings were given the first priority among the building types for applying BIV. Moreover, among the motivator factors, receiving a certificate was found as an important incentive, besides the environmental, social and economic benefits of BIV. Furthermore, although the highly rated barriers were found as ‘the lack of proper regulations’ and ‘lack of demand by the user/client’, the findings showed that the highest responsibility for the implementation of these applications was placed on the architect. Research Limitations/Implications Based on the five major groups of Koppen climate classification system, the case countries were selected as one from each of the four main types, and by neglecting only Polar, as it lacks settlements. By considering diverse levels of development and economic welfare, countries were selected as; Canada (Snow: Humid-Subarctic), Libya (Dry: Desert-arid), Malaysia (Tropical: Tropical-Rain forest) and Turkey (Mild temperate: Mediterranean). Since the study covered four different countries, the survey was conducted by the use of Google Forms software program. This tool enabled the production and distribution of questionnaires, as well as the collection of data based on the responses of the participants. Furthermore, in order to provide consistency among the questionnaires applied in different countries, the survey was conducted in English language, although it was not the native language for a majority of the participants. Moreover, based on studies claiming that participants are more inclined to select the option with the mid-value in a Likert scale, which implies a neutral position, in the questionnaire, these types of questions were constructed with the forced choice method , by keeping the scales with even number of options. Practical Implications It is expected that the results of this study would be beneficial to both the academicians and professionals involved in the green building industry, as well as to the governmental and/or green building authorities. It is expected that this study will help serve as a guide for the stakeholders to increase the application rates of BIV in the construction industry. Social Implications The results of this study were also evaluated based on the findings of four case countries and certain conclusions were derived as to their underlying socio-economic and geographical reasons. Originality/value - Although studies on similar subjects have appeared in the literature, there are none which solely focuses on BIV applications by conducting a survey on the mentioned four case countries and compares its findings with the literature and presents an in-depth analysis on the issue.

In Western Europe, the 1960s and 1970s covered the radical criticism of some European designers against mass production and consumption. Several Italian Radical designers raised the most compelling objection at an exhibition on the other side of the ocean: “Italy: The New Domestic Landscape” (INDL), curated by Emilio Ambasz in the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1972. INDL marked a significant moment in contemporary design history. For the show, Ambasz selected more than a hundred “objects” produced by Italian manufacturers and displayed them in specially designed cases in the garden area. Moreover, he invited eleven Italian designers to create unique “microenvironments” by interpreting concepts assigned by a “special design program,” such as environmental psychology, locality, urbanism, micro and macro-scale housing, consumerism, and mass production. Although the “objects” displayed in the garden were of great importance - since the event was one of the first instances of Italian design’s introduction to the American public-this study concentrates on the contradicting responses of Italian designers, under headings “design and counterdesign as postulation” for understanding the design philosophy behind the appearance of “design versus non-design” dialectics of that era, which is still a recognized topic in contemporary architectural theory. This study, therefore, analyzes the eclectic and postmodern approaches of six Italian designers in the “design” category and the provocative denials of Radical designers presented under the “counterdesign” category. It aims to understand better the impact of this discursive opposition made visible by the exhibition on the anticonsumerist approaches and the search for alternative methodologies, which subsequently increased among designers.
