Course Objective

It is aimed for students to understand and pose a design problem at an architectural scale within the framework of a hig-scale urban relations network, and to manage it on their own by including interdisciplinary studies in the process. It is aimed studetns will be able to develop a mixedfunction program by analyzing design problem and location-specific data and transform this program into spatial an formal designs. The project proposals expected to be developed are expected to focus on publicity , one of the important concepts discussed in the course, and to deal with multiple problems such as different users, mixed functions, upperscale urban decisions and their reflection on architectural design.
