TAKSIM MIXED USE PROJECT 3002 STUDIO PROJECT 2019 MENTOR: İREM MARO KIRIŞ TAKSIM/ISTANBUL

Project area is located on Taksim. The area location is examined and design is shaped according to these elements. Due to the location on Istiklal, a modern building design that respects and references the historical texture is aimed. The first factor taken into consideration during the mass formation was the continuation of the continuity of the harmony of the surrounding buildings and Istiklal. With the natural reference given by the slope, terraces were made in the Project. Bosphorus and sunlight direction are other important design elements. The social, cultural and commercial elements of the city were brought together and the idea of the space is for the society. For this reason, it is aimed to bring the Bosphorus which is not visible from Istiklal Street to the public. Sea view part of the project is designed in such a way that people can get away from the crowds and high buildings of İstiklal. There are many areas with different functions; blackbox theater scenes, cafes, restaurants, shops, exhibition areas and art school. The facade and material are designed to respect the historical fabric. At the back, a modern design is aimed with vertical elements references taken from Istiklal.

CIHANGIR APARTMENT PROJECT 2002 STUDIO PROJECT 2018 MENTOR: AHMET ERGELEN CIHANGIR/İSTANBUL

We are working on cihangir.In site analyses, i searched user profile and ı saw that kids and elderly are minority in cihangir and there are not enough place fort hem. So my scenerio depends this issue. And ı create a semi-public place that is used by kids, elderly. There are 2 main purposes of this place; one of them provide life energy for elderly. The other one satisfy the need of love for both of them. And ı add a funicular system for them because the slope is not good for elderly and funicular separete public garden and apartment garden. also ı add the slope to the my mass in order for gardens go take advantages from sun light. I did not add different form to Street facade because streeet has a harmony so ı did not want to change it. And ı do not want to Show facades of near houses so ı play with mass so this volute form was occured. Also ı add the form to front facade for showing entrances and circulation area of the apartment.

EMIRGAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PROJECT 3001 STUDIO PROJECT 2018 MENTOR: SALİH CEYLAN EMIRGAN/İSTANBUL

We are working on Emirgan. Emirgan is the most known nieghborhoods of Sarıyer in İstanbul.It is historic place on the bosphorus. It is famous for its seaside. When ı was thought about design ideas and form, it considered some factors. And inside and outside were thought each other. Firstly a prism was choosen according to dimensions of the area. Then the prism changed according to tree factor. The trees were protected. Also sun light and bosphorus view were considered. The area is sloped and the form was intended to be appropriate to the area so terracing was added to mass with green roofs. The facade design of the Emirgan school is special for children. The colours and triangler shapes were used. The big glass facade was used for bosphorus view and taking sun light. The light and sun light protectors which has different shapes and colours do different shadows inside so this make the children happy and preparing special play ground for them. Also the cumbas with triangler shapes is special place for children. They can sit and play in there. The school has 3 different gardens because the nature is perfect playing and learning area for elementry school childrens.

The aim of this project that creating very special place for children and they can learn and they can play. Finally they want come here.

HAYAT MOSQUE

ADDOFFICE PROFESSIONAL COMPETITION 2019 MENTOR: ADDOFFICE TURKEY A Place of Worship I Mosque It emphasizes itself in the meaning of the word “collecting, gathering, putting together”. In addition to worship, mosques have formed the whole of places where people gather, gather and feel the feeling of togetherness. Project Area I Learning from the Ground The fact that the building belongs to the "place" and makes it feel like it is always there was one of the focal points of the project. Courtyard and archaic building typology, open circulation system, massive terraces coming together, terraces, shady passage spaces specific to the spirit of urban space; narrow streets; In addition to creating the identity of the region, it also gives clues about life-climate and structural interaction. Formation and Segmentation I Settlement In the project area, which has a linear form, the surrounding street tracks have been maintained in order to maintain urban continuity. After the pedestrian axes received have been divided into the project area, two axes, namely 'qibla axis' and 'ground axis', have been defined in order to use the area effectively. The spatial potential of the area was evaluated by making the main settlement in the direction of 'ground axis', and the place of worship was located in the direction of 'qibla'. On the axis of the city square, a courtyard was designed to define worship and social functions. The arcad system, which feeds the courtyard, creates shady streets as a precaution against hot climate. The ceiling tile of the worship mass is designed as a geometric depiction of the dome structure, which is no longer a structural necessity. The prayer body, which is quite simple and modest, is illuminated with the mentioned geometric openings and this strengthens the perception of eternity. While the commercial street is connected to the courtyard, it is also designed to work with the commercial structure in the surrounding parcel and the shops belonging to the building are located on this axis. Front Character I Identity In order to strengthen the sense of respect and belonging to the “place”, the characteristic basalt stone of the region was used on the front. Facade openings are designed in a controlled manner due to the climate characteristics of the southeast region.

MAHALLE MOSQUE

ADDOFFICE PROFESSIONAL COMPETITION 2019 MENTOR: ADDOFFICE TURKEY Overview - On Mosque Architecture and Its Concept

The word masjid means “prostrated place”. In the field of Islamic worship, which has the main idea of creating the widest ranks in the direction of the Qibla in a courtyard, there is no spatial coercion in this sense, but simplicity and semantic abstraction can be perceived. In this context, the place of worship in the design has been reduced to the essence and no form concern has been made.

Placement Decisions

The project area is located in the Southeastern Anatolia Region. In this context, the climate data of the land and the region are examined. In the project area, the continuity of circulation was provided by continuing the pedestrian axis coming from the city. In line with this axis, a courtyard gap was opened by interpreting the traditional courtyard typology on a neighborhood scale. The 7 meter elevation difference in the land offers different sections at this point. The water element was taken inside the floor elevation in the place of worship, which has a unique atmosphere. This place of worship, which is plain and unpretentious, reflects the essence of Islamic philosophy, and with this state, it has created an attraction space that is free from the outside world and invites. The place of worship creates a feeling of being there all the time with its plain and buried form, thereby strengthening the sense of belonging. The masses surrounding the place of worship and the courtyard of the neighborhood were covered with a fringe. Thus, the place of worship came into contact with the ground and gently attached to the land. While the upper eave defines a shady exterior, it symbolizes the orientation towards the Creator with its sky rising. The building is designed as a meeting point where the neighborhood courtyard and the neighborhood community meet. The water element used in the neighborhood courtyard creates a calm atmosphere while providing air conditioning. The “cypress tree” is the symbol of human life's efforts to exist from birth to death and to be one. The cypress tree is symbolically identified with the minaret. For this reason, the minaret was designed with the abstraction of the cypress tree and was located in the courtyard of the neighborhood.

Facade and Material

Facade partitions and materials are very straight forward, designed to be free of exaggeration and exaggeration. Facade openings are kept at the maximum level to ensure air conditioning. The facade material is basalt stone extracted from the region.

MUKOGAWA UNIVERSITY STUDENT HALL PROJECT MUKOGAWA UNIVERSITY STUDIO PROJECT SUMMER-2019 MENTORS:TOMOKO UNO & MURAT DĂ&#x153;NDAR NISHINOMIYA/JAPAN

This project was created for mukogawa women's university in Japan. It a student hall for university, it is located garden of the university. While designing this project, the De stijl architecture was inspired.Traditional Japanese houses and De stijl architecture has same functions. In the project, verticality and horizontality were emphasized first. The interior has also provided continuity, and an interior space that continues to the user is defined. For this reason, the spaces are defined only by the walls not separated by doors. The water element, which is in traditional Japanese architecture, is interpreted differently and placed in the entrance parts of the project. The aim was to design a space in the interior where students can feel comfortable and enjoy themselves. For this, a library with 1 amphitheater area and different resting areas has been added. The main concept of Arata Endo, the student of Tadao Ando, is to design a student house compatible with Koshien Kaikan and respect the building.

LIPIE-TRONINY HOTEL PROJECT

KRAKOW UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY STUDIO PROJECT FALL SEMESTER 2019 MENTOR: PROF. P. GAJEWSKI KRAKOW/POLAND In this project, a convention-exhibition hotel was built for lipie, a small town of Poland. A hotel with about 80 rooms was requested for this land in the greenery and trees. The main concept for this project was the positioning of a building behind the mountains but saying I am here in nature. First, the mass was extended sideways. The reason for this was to master the river view and make the most of the sunlight. The mass was then raised with thin columns and supported by a transparent mass. The main mass, raised by transparent mass and thin columns, is intended to create a feeling of flying. Another reason for its upgrade was to be more of a river and nature view. Some parts of the north-south faรงades were shifted back and forth to give this larger mass a more dynamic form. This move was also made to ensure privacy in the rooms. At the same time, large claws and balconies overlooking the landscape were added to the north facade. Balconies were added to the sides to support the mass concept extending sideways. White-gray concrete was used as a material choice. At the same time, the project was supported with urban furnitures.

AFTER 100 YEARS

World scenario which has become uninhabitable due to acid rain WORLD / 2118 This project is about our world 100 years from now. Unfortunately, we are devastating to our world and nature, so after 100 years the world will become almost untouchable. Although it is not known exactly how, 100 years later, in our world, various natural disasters can be realized if we continue to devastate our world. According to my scenario, the fossil fuel wastes that we use a lot in the natural water cycle will cause acid rain. As a result of the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil, sulfur and nitrogen containing gases will accumulate in the atmosphere. Due to these acid rains, the living quarters we use now cannot meet our needs. We will need living units that are suitable for new conditions. This design has been designed to prevent acid rain and to create a suitable space for human life and to live in the possible world. Therefore, the upper side is wider and the material used is resistant to acid rain. It is designed to cover open areas in the life unit. Modeled was done 3D and laser cutting. We hope that we protect our world and such natural disasters never happen.

A STATION FOR STUDENT COMPETITION 2018 BAHCESEHIR UNİVERSITY -‘’Second Award’’

A WORKING,SITTING AND EXHIBITION ELEMENTS FOR BAU NORTH CAMPUS This competition asked to design a station for students from us. Firstly, I examined the area where the project will be happen. I tried to look over the needs of the area and students, and I tried to do my best for design the most suitable chair unit. When I examined the school, I identified the needs as follows; - Classic table top should has a different design when we considered that; this is a architecture faculty. They should be different but, at the same time compatible. - There should be enough space when needed, and when we do not need, there should be little space. There should be a match between our needs and design. - The tables just should be there for work, and for our goods (bags, laptop, etc.) there will be a place under the table. In this way you feel comfortable without compression. - Yes, it should be comfortable but for me comfortable means there is no restrictive. You can adjust the backrest to your need. - It should be handy/convenient when it comes to jury time. What I mean is; You should be able to put your model and poster on your project and get ready to do presentation in a short time. You should not waste your time to paste the papers on the wall. - When we considered all these needs, finally I gave my decision about my design. - So, the design is modular and easily stored.....

FISHER HOUSE MODELLING AND FACADE DESIGN

ARCHITECT: LOUIS KAHN PROJECT YEAR: 1960-1967 LOCATION: Hatboro, Pennsylvania, United States Louis Kahn was one of the most famous architects in the 20th century.He was born on February 20, 1901 in Estonia, Pärnu. He studied architecture at the University of Pennsylvania.Louis Kahn built Fisher House in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, United States in 1960-1967. The Fisher House is the simplest expression of Kahn’s idea: two cubes, one for the living room and the other for the bedrooms, which touch at an angle as if by chance, like dice thrown on a table. In reality, they are not perfect cubes, and the “cube” of the living room is not even square in floor, but they are close enough to be perceived as such. In this project, different form of shade design was added to the house. so it had a new facade design. It was aimed to make a design suitable for the existing façade design by using thin wooden rods. was used on the roof with added stairs and shade.
