ASSESSMENT OF DAYLIGHTING IN A HISTORICAL EDUCATIONAL BUILDING: ANKARA UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF SCIENCE ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY LABORATORY
(Znack Publishing House, 2023) Avci, Ayse Nihan; 237970; İç Mimarlık
The conditions of Ottoman architecture persisted during the republican period at the turn of the 20th century. Later, radical changes in the structure of the state affected the field of architecture, and changes in the world were reflected in our country. The structures that are the subject of architectural debates are typically early republican period buildings, which were built between 1920s and 1950s. On the other hand, in past buildings, the interior de-sign criteria that are important for the user in interior design have been the subject of interest in various disciplines. Lighting - daylighting and electric lighting - in different interiors is one of the design criteria that has intrigued many researchers. Laboratories, classrooms, studios, circulation areas, administrative spaces, offices, conference rooms, and wet spaces are all common features of educational buildings. Each of these spaces has unique lighting requirements. The aim of this study is to assess the daylighting performance in the interior and encourage similar studies in historical educational buildings rather than the architectural design of these buildings. Daylighting performance was assessed in the analytical chemistry laboratory at the Ankara University Faculty of Science, block A, which was built during the Second National Architectural Movement and bears the traces of Sedad Hakki El-dem, Emin Onat, and Paul Bonatz. A morning interval (10:00-11:00) where the courses are considered the most productive was chosen for the evaluation. The results were compared and interpreted with the values specified in the standards; the measurement is limited to the day and time interval.

Oled Lighting as a Salutogenic Lighting Design Element in an Indoor Environment
(Znack Publishing House, 2024) Avci, Ayse Nihan; İç Mimarlık
OLED lighting offers many opportunities by considering indoor environmental quality parameters. Considering these opportunities and the needs of the individual, the widespread use of OLED lighting positively impacts social, psychological, physical, and behavioural patterns. Developing a research field on the impact of OLED lighting on an individual's health and well-being leads to a discussion of the indoor environment from different perspectives. To achieve this, salutogenic design is one of the techniques to assess indoor OLED lighting from various perspectives. In recent years, salutogenic design has become increasingly prominent in architectural and interior design. This approach emphasizes promoting health and well-being rather than only concentrating on preventing and treating sickness. This study assesses the application of OLED lighting in the context of salutogenic lighting design. The evaluation focuses on the impact of OLED lighting in an indoor environment and its potential contributions to individuals' overall health and well-being regarding its compatibility with salutogenic design principles. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and research, this study explores various aspects of OLED lighting, including its effects on health and well-being, energy efficiency, and environmental sustain- ability, within the context of salutogenic lighting design.
