LEAKAGEPROCESS I: CALL OUT !
2016-FALL SEMESTER LANDSCAPE DESIGN-IV Studio Tutor: Gülsen Aytaç Call Out Project carries the first 5 years of the entire design process in Haliç Shipyard. It was planned that artists living in the area and people living in the neighborhood would gather together by creating a common and public art axis around the shipyard. The area behind the barracks is divided into as a bazaar and the front as a city plaza. In this way, the public will be passing by on the way to the market and listening to the voice of the shipyard. All this axis will call the people to the shipyard and they will notice the shipyard.
Can water really merge a city? What is the unifying thing in the water? How to combine them? In our research on water to understand our project area, there is a new information about the water. According to a survey of the Aerospace Institute in Stuttgart on water, “water has memory”. (Source: Oasis HD Canal). According to the research, each water drop has a shape that carries its own memory. This information completely changed our perspective on Istanbul and the Golden Horn. In other words, when we re-think Kağıthane and Alibeyköy in this way, water activity reaches the Golden Horn by accumulating memory. In short, the fact that the water flows to the Golden Horn, which is slack water, means that there is a lot of memory in the Golden Horn. Our project site, Haliç Shipyard, is the only place where today it meets and leaves the water along the coast. The shipyard’s pools meet with this water every time they meet again. Thus, contrary to what the Golden Horn shipyard looks like, it is not a place that is left alone in the city but it becomes a place with all of Istanbul.
How about a city like water? How can we reflect this characteristic of water to the ship and its surroundings? The essence of work is what water and drips are, city and people have the same dynamics. Each water drop has its own unique story, shape and memory, and each one of them has different accumulations. By seeing the human stream as a stream of water, leaking it in a controlled way, and making the ship as a center of great scale, as the water is patient, accumulate it by dripping, accumulate it, process it by infiltration is the main aim of our project. The fact that people can infiltrate the ship’s side means that they can meet all this memory on the Haliç.
The area behind the barracks is divided into as a bazaar and the front as a city plaza. In this way, the public will be passing by on the way to the market and listening to the voice of the shipyard. It was aimed to provide transportation to the area from the sea by renewing the berth on the shore. The pedestrian crossing from the pier to the neighborhood and the axle going from there to the bazaar are arranged with the urban furnitures which are made of waste materials and the toys that make the voices we recorded in the shipyard. The designed waterway is provided with a small incline and water sounding. It was aimed to remind the sound of the water flowing out on the shipyard pool. At the same time, there is a stage designed to renew the old buildings and to organize concert theater and other events. The main plant used in the field was chosen as miscanthus which was alone in the shipyard, and other plants were chosen to support it. The trees were chosen to support the axes and the effects to be created in the autumn.
The general idea is with the creating new landmarks and new links, connecting the whole area. Creating an area that can connect everybody and every layer. Artists workers students childrens can be come together and share the city. History, industry , culture and activities can be together in this idea.
BREATHING BURSA 2016-SPRING SEMESTER LANDSCAPE DESIGN-III Studio Tutors: Melih Bozkurt Ebru Erbas Gurler “A city that can re-fresh itself. “ The idea of breathing is actually came from , the fresh air that can be felt from the mountain. We as being human , while we are designing, remember that we are the part of the nature, and inspired by the connection between a city and a human we have decided to propose a system that can sustain itself like our bodies. Uludağ, as being the source of fresh air, being like city lungs, and the water will be in a loop with the designed vains. In this system, every part of the city, has to be “clear” .So it is actually “re-freshing” in every way.
A city which can refresh itself is also should be legible. Like the memory of the city, (historic buildings and etc.) is like the bone of the city and must be strong and recognizeable to stand. And other parts are connected to them. So the main proposal is with the open spaces, routes and a water link which is refreshing itself by bioswales, we aim to design “a city that can refresh itself.�

The area because of being historical and also a big city, there are different kinds of people so there are different kinds of actions. Which means there are lots of needs. Because of there are 3 parallel big streets actually walking is the main action. And all inns are have shops and cafes inside. So drinking tea and shopping are the other activities.So also having a rest is a need in this area.
COCOON GARDEN
ECO-SCHOOLYARDS 2015-FALL SEMESTER LANDSCAPE DESIGN II Studio Tutor: Ebru Erbas Gurler
Cocoon is a schoolyard garden project which is in Göztepe Istanbul. The project aim is, raising awarness about deafs and creating a connection between schoolyards and green spaces with designing some “deaf spaces”. Cocoon is a space which has some new design proposals. The Project Area is Mehmet Sait Aydoğdu Deaf School, which is near some main roads as railway and Bağdat street and bus street.
One of the biggest problems of school gardens in Turkey is that the surfaces that should be permeable are asphalt. Other than that, the school gardens are transformed into unskilled and desolate areas when the school is closed.
This project, in fact, draws attention to these situations and suggests a new concept of school garden. It is aimed to transform the school gardens into clean open spaces of our neighborhoods, to overcome the motivation to own school grounds and to provide a common use area.
communication walls
visually pervious
Turning deaf schoolyard to an educator playground for children: In order to create a suitable space for this situation, we must pay attention to different things than the normal design rules: The most important need for a hearing impaired person is to see and balance. The following tiny diagrams describe how this contact is provided.
teaching agriculture
public interaction
The movements brought by this language bring new design rules. At its simplest, we need to avoid angular structures. Rampers, sloping edges create pervious spacing to create safer spaces.
There are 2 parts of the garden first part is public -to create communication with the neighbourhood people with the deafs and create a bond and make schoolyards, useful for everyday. Backyard of the schoolyard is designed for deaf use
Sensory Garden for deaf children: Learning while playing, while learning making stronger the feelings, climbing smelling tasting drawing sitting touching feeling.... This part of the garden is designed for making childrens memories stonger with the other feelings and in a planted area, with various of plants....
ALIGHT STOP 2015-SPRING SEMESTER LANDSCAPE DESIGN I Studio Tutor: Birge Yıldırım
This birds are telling us a message “an infrastructure can be a home to some habitats...” expecially to some birds which are actually be in danger of extinction the future situation in Istanbul is looking like it will turn to a urban everywhere so that this breakwater will be their only stop nearly.

TODAY’S SITUATION In Istanbul
Istanbul is an important area for lots of bird species. Especially some species which are be in danger of extinction and migratory, goes by Bosphorus. But there are lots of projects will be built in Istanbul’s future. (you can see lots of them from this site: http://megaprojeleristanbul.com/ )
TODAY’S SITUATION On the breakwater
In Haydarpasa,Istanbul,there is a breakwater which has some uniqe characteristics.The breakwater was made in 1899 which makes it historic,it is not connected with the coast so it is inaccessable it creates an artificial island today.Alight Stop project is aiming to understand the birds life and making their life better with their methods
PROJECT As it can be seen, project area is linear, long, and unconnected with the land. So it makes it uniqe and artistic . Another uniqe thing about the breakwater is it has got a historic mark on it. So this project designed for the birds with artistical purposes.Landscape architecture as, enviromental art.
HABITAT PLAN for target birds’ species With the use of birds’ tactics which i’ve learnt after an observation process, the aim is designing a new habitating area for them which will be better for them.
