MIM202 Architectural Design II (2-6) 5(ECTS -9)
Instructor: Gülay Yedekçi Arslan
The objective of this course is that students gain the ability to explore, understand and resolve
the design problems based on “body-space-environment”. This course introduces students to
private-public spaces, interior-exterior spaces, natural-artificial environments, and location.
Students are to learn and experiment these architectural concepts, and notice the concrete
consequences of them through re-reading of existing models. Design instruments used in
studios are model making, sketching and photographs by which students are to express their
ideas. The topics of lectures and discussion are; private-public sphere, natural and artificial
environment, construction-material, volume and mass, landscape, spatial frameworks,
phenomenology. Visits, seminars, workshops and programs aiming at developing students’
skills of representation, drawing, surveying, photography, video and model making support
this course.
MIM302 Architectural Design IV (2-6) 5(ECTS -6)
Instructor: Gülay Yedekçi Arslan
The objective of this course is to cultivate students’ ability to explore, understand and resolve
the design problems based on “place-city-time”. This course introduces students to the
interconnection of technological progress, history, historical context, culture, tradition, social
values, memory and architecture. Students are to the main concepts underlying the design
problems as well as explore historical context and its re-reading. The studio-based lectures
have three phases; re-reading of historical structure; definition and determination of the
problems of construction system and architecture; reestablishment of context. The keywords
of the methodology are fiction and context. Students are to express their ideas through
sketching, computer based presentations or models made at different scales. The topics of
lectures and discussion are; architecture and city, typology, city with monuments, historical
and urban context, signs, images, urban and spatial signs, symbols, structuralism, restructuring, traditional constructing systems, sustainability, locus, anchoring. This course is
supported by visits, seminars, workshops and programs aiming at developing students’ skills
of computer based representation, drawing, surveying, photography, video and model
making.
MIM306 Settlement Planning and Design (2-4) 4 (ECTS -5)
Instructor: Ahmet Turhan Altıner
The purpose of study: The purpose of this study is to give to students the basic concepts about
the urban design applications and make a project study enabling application of these
theoretical information. The subjects of what the urban design is, its principles, different
design needs in different urban areas and their application techniques; urban life quality,
dynamism and habitability concepts and visual analysis techniques in the city are discussed.
By considering the problems of a place in an area selected in the city, realization of a urban
design project is expected. In the 21st Century, water, food and energy security will be the
most important problems of cities. As the water, food and energy security will affect the place
organization both in micro and macro scale, policies and design criteria for purpose of solving
the problem will be developed during the project process.
MIM308 Restitution and Restoration
Instructor: Fikret Evci
(2-2) 3 (ECTS -5)
In this studio, the knowledge and technics of surveying and documentation regarding the
historical sites and buildings, are improved and the study is developed through restitution and
restoration projects of the historical building documented during the former course.
MIM304 Design-Technical Integration II (2-2) 3 (ECTS -5)
Instructor: Fikret Evci
The second part of this studio aims to improve the knowledge that has obtained in the first
studio. The input for this project is the schematic proposal completed in the Architectural
Design III studio.
Basically, this construction project will be an advanced and more detailed version of the
former study, focusing on the systems of structure, heating/cooling, water and sanitary, and of
building envelope; all dimensionally integrated into the general design of the building. One or
more of the selected building elements or components are designed particularly with its
original specifications, in relation to the building design. The study is structured from the
detail to the whole design, applying the reverse of the first studio.
