Increasing visual perception in architecture education: An architectural representation study
(intellect Ltd, 2021) Nayeb, Aslan; Kutlu, Izzettin
Representation is a tool that facilitates the transfer of an idea. Architectural repre-sentations not only help differentiate the thoughts that the designer has in his mind, but also create a space where he can simplify what he has in mind when uploading it. This article makes a study on developing visual perception ability by including architecture students in the education process. Representation has become a necessary tool, especially in conveying thoughts. In this study, repre-sentation was analysed by architecture students through the five structures designed by Louis Kahn, one of the famous architects of the twentieth century. Students were asked to discover the remarkable features of buildings and produced 15 x 15 cm2 architectural representations. As a result, the student's perception of these buildings increased significantly and provided lesson hours to be more productive while creating architectural representations.
Sequential Approach of the Re-Using the Historical Military Barrack in the Old Mardin Heritage in Turkey
(Assoc Profissional Conservadores-restauradores Portugal, 2022) Kutlu, Izzettin; Ilerisoy, Zeynep Yesim; Soyluk, Asena
The architectural features of the military barrack building in the Old Town Square of Mardin were examined in order to evaluate the compatibility of the interventions and annexes with regard to contemporary conservation principles. The method of the study is based on determining the changing mass and function relationships in the historical structure by tracing technique for sequential time periods. Considering the transformation of the building from the barrack to the tax office, it was seen that the required changes damaged the original condition of the building. This situation was tried to be minimized in transformation from tax office to museum, and interventions were made according to the original condition of the building. As a result, it was concluded that instead of changing the mass scale or shape of the structure, the contemporary additions or interventions should be completely proportional to the structure, and contribute to the sense of historical pattern.
