I Sustainable School Competition Project / Finalist / Ronesans Holding Team : Erman Aydın, Veli Mustafa Yönder ‘If you are thinking a year ahead, sow a seed. If you are thinking ten years ahead, plant a tree. If you are thinking 100 year ahead, educate the people.’ -- Kuan Tzu (circa 500 B.C.)
As Chinese poet Kuan Tzu said, the way to sustainability is through education. The school and society are like two mirrors placed on one another. The way of becoming an environmentalist industrial society certainly comes from a good understanding of agriculture because there is no society that has become industrial society without agriculture society. ‘When a man moves away from nature his heart becomes hard’ -- Indian Proverb We try to teach the children the most basic information about earth and life in a different education understanding. We offer them a life and education full of details of human soul., they will be the building blocks of a new system that combines land with the economy and a strong country.

With this idea infrastructure, we also offer children the possibility to create integrated terraces with their own lessons and eat them from their own vegetables and fruits. Children will live realistically and learn to produce. At the same time, these terraces will nurture children’s self-esteem and transform nature into activity-experience areas, keeping them away from the uniform student model and bringing different thoughts to the foreground. Everypne has a different reality. Everyone has a different reality; but it is important to reveal this difference in childhood through an alternative education . Use of Land - Mass organization - Functions Taking into consideration the difference of about 5 meters of slope which is increasing towards the north direction, we directed the terraces that children will agriculture to the south which constitute our main idea.We tried to take maximum advantage of the sun in this regard.

II - Psychiatric Hospital Competiton Project / 2020 Team : Ahmet İlyas Sözeri, Emrah Bal, Erman Aydın Assistant: Ufuk Şencanlı (student)
Key Words : Campus Atmosphere, Like Home, Holliday Village Public Awareness, Not Prison
Anton Chekhov, Ward No.6 ...These nails, with their points upwards, and the fence, and the lodge itself, have that peculiar, desolate, God-forsaken look which is only found in our hospital and prison buildings... Our proposal for the hospital, whose current state is not different from Anton Chekhov’s Ward No. 6 The effect of Architecture on Human Mind and Psychology Mental and nervous diseases hospitals need serious reform both in conceptual and architectural sense. Our aim in this project is to break the ideas and dogmas that society perceives as normal and natural, or at least to question these dogmas. Although our mission in this project is seen as inaccessible, the main thing for us is to make them feel that mental and nervous patients are not in prison. The human mind is the most mysterious in the universe. The mind which is a subject that philosophers before and after Socrates constantly try to understand and produce works, still preserves this mysterious side. As Michael Foucalt’s groundbreaking book Madness and Society: As mentioned in the History of Madness, pre-Renaissance society used to think that people we call insane today have a certain wisdom and behave accordingly. However, after the Renaissance, the people called ‘crazy’ started to be seen as people who disregarded their ‘moral values’ and were seen as a mistake that should be removed from the society. This led to the “Great Confinement” worldwide, as Foucalt put it. According to Foucalt, because society sees ‘being mad’ as a free choice, society internalizes and normalizes this painful situation.

Current State & Proposal In psychiatric architecture, which has a history of hundreds of years, there are various typologies from many different cultures and geographies to date; however, both in our country and in different geographies, this issue has been poured into some templates and stuck in repetitions. When we consider the issue in our own country and especially on the current situation of ErenkĂśy Mental Health and Neurological Diseases Hospital, we can see the seriousness and seriousness of the event closely. Unfortunately, the hospital, which is located in a magnificent nature, remained far away from its potentials. In its core, the project land, which is a natural wonder with the atmosphere brought by the aged pine trees it contains, has unfortunately been made indiscriminately away from spatial fiction and has become indistinguishable from the prison with the structures that consist of repetitions of the past.

Spatial Purity White organic walls play an active role in the project within the framework of naturalness to separate the earthly and the otherworldly and to make the essence feel even more. When the light enters the place of worship, simple white walls contribute to this pure mentality by creating a dark atmosphere. During the day, the effect of light increases the meaningful and emotional feelings in harmony with the religious activities with the contribution of the white walls. The greatest decoration of the building is the daylight coming from the southeast with the mihrab wall being transparent.

Return to Essence Pure / Modesty / April 2019
The transparent mihrap increases the depth of the space and allows the person to realize his / her presence by leaving the awe in awe through the external landscape and the reflected light. Thanks to the permeable southeastern façade, the worship place communicates with the ‘microcosmos’ that includes water, trees, light, sky, and many other elements that are natural. Water, which is the main source of purification, passes through the microcosmos like light and becomes another decoration of the place of worship. In the Quran, the verse ’God sends down water from heaven and after his death has brought up the place’ Social courtyards - A New Function Diagram / Flexibility The av social courtyards s played by organic white walls play an important role in the transition from the earthly to the otherworldly. The simple white wall creates a curiosity with the mystery and takes us from different points as we approach the buffer zone. Afterwards, by gradually moving away from the material, he prepares us for the transition from the earthly to the ethereal environment where we can feel the contrast deeply. The courtyards, which are in contact with the city and the main place of worship, increase the flexibility of the mosque and move away from the template plan. According to the relationship between the city and the topography, social courtyards differ in itself, including the courtyard of the city, contemplation and activity.

You say to a brick, ‘What do you want, brick?’ And brick says to you, ‘I like an arch.’ And you say to brick, ‘Look, I want one, too, but arches are expensive and I can use a concrete lintel.’ And then you say: ‘What do you think of that, brick?’ Brick says: ‘I like an arch.’

---Louis Kahn
The project focused on the use of modern materials. Instead of repeating the stereotypes with the opportunities provided by the technology, the design concept which is appropriate to the essence of the material is constructed. It is covered with canopy GFRC panels with a steel structure carrying organic white gross walls. Polycarbonate sheets which increase the permeability to courtyards by providing an alternative light to the place of worship have been added to the white gross walls. The canopy is an important part of both the harmony with the city and the passive air conditioning system. Consisting of two layers, the canopy optimizes the passive thermal performance of the building by cooling the air in between

Analysis of The Media Through Literature
Umberto Eco - The Name Of The Rose
Giovanni Battista Piranesi - Carceri
26
www.behance.net/ermanaydin
IV The Journey in Mediateque The project first searched for an authentic answer to the media. Later, when U. Eco made a serious connotation about the media and its portrayal of ‘The Name of The Rose’, he ensured that the project was inspired by a novel. The definition of media is a source of information that is transmitted to the public or not delivered to the public. In the romance in the middle ages, the information center is a place called ‘Aedificum’ where the works of the authors are kept secret such as Aritoteles, but the heroes of the novel William and Adso take a journey into discovery in a void to reach the wisdom.

V Selcuk Culture&Youth Center Competition Entry / Team : Erman Aydın, Veli Mustafa Yönder, Mustafa Nazım It’s a competition project held in Selcuk,Izmir where historical culter centers located. The relationship of culture with the youth is vital because it is directly related to the future. For this reason, a design strategy has been adopted aiming to strengthen young people’s connection with culture. This approach has been fed from the dynamism of youth, to rebellious attitude and to learning. Thus, a structure is designed which can be called ‘our’.
At the same time, the structure forms a public interface while considering the nature of youth. All the trees that exist are protected and an open courtyard is considered in them. The culture in the urban context coming from Kubilay Street was taken into the building with 5002 streets coming from the west so the courtyard was merged. Thus, the structure was fragmented to form a more miniature culture strip, a street with a courtyard. Here, the user will have a good time before the visit to Selçuk and will also learn about places to visit on the cultural axis in the urban context thanks to the miniature culture strip and open air cinema. For this reason, the open air cinema is taken into the trees and the attraction is further increased and the fronts on the culture strip have been made useful.

The potential of the use of open public spaces has been enhanced by providing shady areas with the idea of urban canopy, and this idea has been spread over the entire structure, and a shell that symbolizes both the youth phenomenon and expands its surface area exponentially to provide more shade. This shell, sometimes communicating with the ground, sometimes allowing the growth of the trees, opening and forming a fringe, and sometimes combined with the floor to the functional need to rise and descend into a kinetic state. So you can import. A transparent, translucent and transparent structure is constructed under the shell.The shell is at the level of +4,50 by creating a pit connecting with the courtyard.

Night Usage
V Compact Houses Designer : Erman Aydın within SPArchitects Renders : Lifang
Daytime Usage
The compact houeses are proposed within SPArchitects for low income families. Interconverting and common units are critical issue for the project. A unit is used as ‘2+1’ at nights while using as ‘1+1’ in a day time. As a design idea it is affected by traditional Turkish Architecture and it reflects its contemporary comment. The projects consist of five different blocks bringing harmony with mass moves. Colorful closed balconies (cumba) and interpreted eaves strengthen the contemporary behaviour. When it’s come to the landscape decisions, an organic and warm atmosphere greet you in order to supply neighborhood relations.

A New Approach to The Tradition Inspration From Tradition
The project under the influence of traditional Turkish architecture has been constructed on a modern level. A compact living is offered to the users in the apartments which offer two different usage possibilities, day&night. While the project is being designed, it’s designed to respond to the needs of different users with flexible solutions and to creat livings space in nature. In this respect, the project are in in relation with environment. The continuation of the green area in the environment was desired and the green area was included in the project. In this contex, the prpject is planned as residential and commercial units to present a modern urban life to its users. The natural slope in the north-south direction is used gradually in the project area and an inner garden is designed.Trade areas are located on the west side of the project

VI Social Hou
As a result of the analysis and concept studies made for the project, the functions have been determined. Housing and trade units are positioned in consideration of environmental issues. Recreational and parking areas are available for the users in the project. Architectural planar in the project that offers alternative solutions for day and night use; the minimum area is designed with the motto of maximum functions and living space.Areas that can be used as daytime working and living areas can easily be transformed into sleeping areas.

The project is located in Florya Istanbul. While the site area is around 380 m² oficially usage area is 160 m². It’s tried to respond all wishes of the client by keeping design principals. As the client is too pricese for his demands the design process was harder than normal. For instance: altough it had to be solved 90 m² saloon on 160 m² site, it’s succeeded in crumbling the massby reaching a contemporary approach. And the same design principal is followed on the eaves and hipped roof. While vertical steel component strengthes our aim it also separetes the building functionally

‘Architecture is the art of how to waste space’ -- Philip Johnson
While the project doesn’t waste even any m² of the usable area, it keeps the design principals. On the other hand translucent steel stairs takes you to the first floor facing to a brilliant atmosphere and leading you to guest room. The first floor also has children rooms facing to garden consisting of swimmin pool and fruit trees. The roof floor is designed for parents as a suit room by using of all advantages of the hipped roof supplies. the suit room leads to the speacial terrace overseeing the marmara sea.Just for the roof floor steel constructon is prefered.

In order to flip all the weaknesses and threats in the region, The project area is located in Maslak of Sarıyer District in Istanbul. The project, located in the planned area as Istanbul’s Central Business Area, is surrounded by high plazas, which are home to many of the company’s main offices. The project area is located 150 meters from Büyükdere Caddesi, which is an important axis of the city. For this reason, reaching the area with both private vehicles and public transport is quite easy. ITU-Ayazağa Metro Station is located approximately 400 meters away from the project area.The most important public transport route for the project area is M2 metro line.

An Iconic Tower High-Rise The project area can have the view of Istanbul Bosphorus because it is located in one of the high peaks of Istanbul and because there is not very high buildings in the south. For this reason, while designing the project, the position and height of the building should be considered very well for a see view. The Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge, which passed through the south of the project area in 1970, has not yet been built. The current name Katar Street, which provided access to the Istinye Pier, which was frequently used at that time, was the most important axis for the region along with Büyükdere Caddesi. At that time, only a few faculty buildings belonging to ITU, some factories and agricultural areas were located in the region. In the Maslak region, the transformation began after the 1980s with the construction of the 2nd bridge. With the conversion of factories to business centers and modernization, the area of increasingly high construction has been updated since 1990-2000’s When you look around the project area, it is seen that Atatürk Auto Industry Site takes place in the north. Other parts are surrounded by major business centers and towers. The ITU Ayazağa campus is located on the other side of Büyükdere Street in the south of the project area.

IX Kayseri Suriçi Master Plan Team: Erman Aydın, Ehsan Mousavi, Sevan Özaçar Within SPArchitects The project area is located in Melikegazi district of Kayseri Province. The area is located just south of the Cumhuriyet Square at the intersection of multiple transportation axes, at central point of the city, granting it very high accessibility. Furthermore, the site could be accessed in multiple ways, either through one of the tramway stations Cumhuriyet and Duvenonu, or through the wide vehicular roads intersecting with the area. The project area and its surroundings covered by Kayseri Suriçi is divided into 3 regions. It was observed that the regions have a slight slope. In the design process, considering said inclination, elevation differences were determined. The present situation of the monumental historical buildings in the project area was analyzed by going to the region. Most structures have been found to be unusable, in need of maintenance and renewal. The general façade characters of the buildings that are planned to be added to the historical buildings in the project are based on the reinterpretation of the historical criteria described above, regardless of whether they are historical or modern design.
