Objectives of the Course Students are expected to deal with the issues of designing a simple functional requirement with a little complexity in the urban context. It aims for the design of a (group of) small building(s) as well as strong contextual relations which can provide the opportunity to combine functional requirements with the fundamental space qualities, to relate inner/spatial characteristics to the outer/formal appearances and to propose an interior space and architectural solution suitable to place characteristics of the site. Accordingly, students are expected to actively experience the design process not only as a problem-solving process (using analysis/synthesis modes of inquiry and linking through serial interactions and feedback loops) but also as a creative activity, which generally contains scenario writing, concept development and proposal of appropriate interior spaces and architectural forms. Consequently, the main aim of the Design Studio is to give students an introductory yet comprehensive overview of design activity with its procedural and product properties. Therefore, it provides an opportunity to witness the significant relations between process and product of design respectively.
Contents of the Course Students are expected to design a small building with less square meter in a low density site. This building may be a small dwelling or a nursery. Basing previous learning, it is to design a medium scale building such as, a dwelling, nursery, kindergarten, shop, dentist etc... It is a beginning to interior design, analyzing interiors, architectural design and functions. Basic knowledge about user requirements and practices. Emphasize the elements of interior design such as; pattern, color,materials, textile and furniture. It is demanded to search the datas about tecnical and written informations.
