1+1=3 Systems of Didactic Communication
(2015) Belek Leandro, Müge; Teixeira, Frederico Fialho
The construction of knowledge is a transitional element, as it is build in our minds and through empirical experience. Similarly, in order to experience space – whatever kind – one has to be present. Nonetheless as one is constantly immersed into a space, our mental space or knowledge is constantly producing new paths of connections, either consciously or unconsciously. "1+1=3 Systems of Didactic Communication" is an artwork that intensifies the question of education is not based on knowledge but rather creativity. Through a multimodal spatial experience we retraces how and why one may became influenced by creativity through a critique of education itself. Until it leaves its false paths, "1+1=3" demonstrates that knowledge will remain only a wordy dialectic if it is not exerted through creativity. Through a multimodal and virtual intensity, "1+1=3" prompts that digital knowledge and creativity must be rooted in experience for education to become a genuine evolution of knowledge. And in the quest for unanswered questions, the creative dimension of human life and the importance of intuition must be emphasized. A source of enquiry for students as well as educators, 1+1=3 reveals a philosophy that is always dynamic, blending humanity’s creative drive with its mastery in knowledge goes beyond an addition of factors. 1+1=3 was on display on Istanbul Modern Vitra Contemporary Architecture Series as a work under Dream to Realities Exhibition.
A Design-Build Studio: Kilyos Boathouse [2019]
(TU Delft Open, 2019) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Sezgin, Ahmet; İnceoğlu, Arda
As a part of stated curriculum of MEF University Faculty of Arts, Design and Architecture, design-build studio is a compulsory summer internship for the students completing their first year in architecture and interior design. Within the framework of the design-build studio, the school communicates its set of values through emphasising learning by doing, implying horizontal learning and underlining the process. This paper will discuss how a design-build studio can be a distinctive subliminal quality of an architecture faculty through the case of Boathouse project conducted during Summer 2018.Boathouse Project is designed and built at Kilyos Beach in Istanbul by the students completing their first year in architecture and interior design for Boun Marine and Sailing Club to store their equipment such as small sailing catamarans and windsurf boards while providing a space for club members to gather. Thirty-five first-year students, four second and third- year student assistants and three tutors designed and built the project for five weeks with the support by Boğaziçi University for materials and accommodation; ZETAS for ground works; and TORID for timber supply. Boun Marine and Sailing Club members also provided voluntary support for logistics and finishing. Boathouse is awarded both for the Turkish Architecture Yearbook 2018 and Project Awards for Architectural Students in Turkey.One of the most distinctive aspects of the project is learning by doing. Direct engagement enables learning through several processes, and design-build studio is a relevant setting to enhance them. In this context, students grew away from the formal setting and relocated in an unfamiliar context to confront with a real world subject. They were responsible with developing a fully-fledged design proposal, making presentations to communicate with the client, keeping working setup in order as well as the building site, tracking material supply, and building the design in a limited timeframe. Students used woodworking tools after having health and safety training and they undertake the shared work items as workgroups each day.The second aspect of the project is horizontal learning. Instead of delivering top-down instructions, educators’ position was ruling out the hierarchy by working, living and making decisions together. In this sense, working setting was an extension of the studio culture, including sex equality among work sharing, team set-up, and dedication to the project. Moreover, each student was responsible for their work items as well as they were responsible to the whole group. Student assistants were exchanging their experience and knowledge with the first-years while they were sharing the responsibility. They were learning from each other.The third aspect is underlining the process of the project. Within a limited timeframe and limited experience, the process is always emphasised considerably more than the final product. In this context, openness was one of the crucial characteristics that led a direct dialogue with the client through a series of meetings with the Boun Marine and Sailing Club members for developing the design together. During the building phase last- ing three weeks, several adaptations were made as responses to challenges and opportunities.Design-build studio is one of the central characteristics of the school. As a common experience, all of the students get involved in this organisation as early as the first-year; and they become a part of the faculty culture. Participation of all of the tutors in design-build studios also provides an introduction for a mutual acquaintance among students and tutors. Moreover, projects include a social aspect either for community service or for community involvement enhancing the purposefulness which then empower the connection with the real life situations. Overall, the design-build studio setting is a unique subliminal quality for architectural education besides its well-known curricular qualities.
A Design-Build Studio: Kilyos Boathouse [2020]

As a part of the stated curriculum of MEF University Faculty of Arts, Design and Architecture, Design and Build! Studio (DBS) is a compulsory summer programme for students completing their first year in architecture and interior design. Within the framework of Design and Build! Studio, the school communicates its set of values through emphasising learning by doing, horizontal learning and underlining the process. This paper discusses how a design‑build studio can be a distinctive hidden quality of an architecture faculty through the case of Kilyos Boathouse project conducted in Summer 2018.
A Workshop "of Journeys/Yolculuklara Dair" as a Part of "vardiya (the Shift)": the Turkish Pavilion at the 2018 Venice Biennale
(Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), 2018) Ataş, Zeynep; Akın, Tomris; Paşaoğlu, Ali
“Of Journeys” is a workshop that aims to overlap the circulation of matter, the building of Fontego dei Turchi which has become a stopover in that circulation, and the personal journeys of the participants. To this end it tackles its theme in three layers: The first layer refers to the circulation of humans and objects on the Venetian and Ottoman trade routes and in the Mediterranean basin, especially textile raw materials and fabrics; the second layer, the personal accumulation and travels of the students and coordinators who will be brought to the International Architecture Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia; and the third layer refers to this experience itself, that is, the personal experiences of the viewers who visit and follow the Pavilion of Turkey and the Fontego dei Turchi building.

Adaptive Reuse of High-Rise Buildings for Housing: a Study of Istanbul Central Business District
(Cogitatio Press, 2024) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Akın, Tomris
The abrupt shift to remote work due to the Covid-19 pandemic increased vacant office spaces globally, especially in high -rent central business districts (CBDs). These vacant office spaces offer the potential for conversion into housing, addressing the shortage of affordable housing in central areas. Additionally, this topic presents a unique experimental ground for architecture students. This study focuses on the Istanbul CBD as a case study, examining the historical developments that led to a rise in office vacancy rates and housing inequality, and exploring the potential for adaptive reuse of these vacant office buildings. A key focus of this study is to underline the pedagogical value of adaptive reuse, highlighting how such projects can inspire more diverse and equitable housing models, fostering experimental and sustainable design approaches. It systematically evaluates the outcomes of a 4th -year architectural design studio that focuses on the adaptive reuse of the Tat Towers in the Istanbul CBD, a structurally vacant high-rise office building, and asks: How does the context of adaptive reuse enable a different design approach, and, potentially, new spatial norms and standards to emerge, and how might this hold a pedagogical value for architecture education? Following these questions, the article discusses how norms and standards are not only culturally but also typologically contextual, and how the students have explored how norms and standards might change, outlining new design approaches to adaptive reuse.

Architectural Design Research: Drivers of Practice
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Aydemir, Ayse Zeynep; Jacoby, Sam
Research, professional practice, and learning in architecture are becoming increasingly integrated as the understanding of research and practice is transforming and research assessment criteria are expanding. This changing research landscape has created more diverse iterative and cyclical design research processes and opened new areas of exploration and experimentation in architecture. Building on existing tripartite design research models, such as research 'into', 'for', and 'through' or research stages of 'processes', 'products/outcome', and 'performance/impact', this paper uses the concepts of 'process-driven', 'output-driven', and 'impact' to analyse and classify current architectural design research practices. This framework is used to clarify how research criteria are differently understood in academia and practice, explore the challenges arising from translation between them, and analyse the methods commonly used. While focusing on the UK context, the paper offers transferable insights while using some international case studies.
Architectural Writing Laboratory: A Design Learning Experiment
(2024) Korkmaz, İrem; Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep
Writing is a spatial act - exploring different writing modes may unveil new modes of architectural thinking. When contextualised within the architectural framework, writing takes on a transformative role, capable of opening up possibilities for non-visual relationships and interconnected networks, thereby inviting critical inquiry and discourse. In architectural schools, where the design studio is the central focus, this area usually remains less explored, particularly in undergraduate programmes. However, practising architectural writing brings opportunities to students; for instance, they are introduced to and become familiar with spatial thinking in a literary space where their typically visual preconceptions do not operate.Pursuing this perspective, this paper explores how effectively using writing as a design tool can uncover new and unconventional perspectives on architecture and proposes architectural writing as an interdisciplinary learning tool for guiding future architects and architectural design researchers. These issues are examined through an in-depth study of pedagogical objectives and outcomes of the Architectural Speaking and Writing course, a mandatory subject for third-year undergraduate students.The course is structured as a writing laboratory that closely examines forms of architectural writing as primary instruments for finding a critical voice, engaging in critical dialogue, and communicating with the wider public. Through introducing the design of the course structure and analysing the writing exercises, this paper addresses the crucial role that diverse mediums and methods of expression play for students to connect their internal narratives with external realities in architectural education while altering the dominant position of the educator towards a facilitator.

Criticism as an Educational Tool in Architecture
(ARCHTHEO 2015, 2015) İnceoğlu, Arda
Criticism is the basis of all education. Using tools as comparison, multiple answers, questioning what is told, searching for better explanations, speculation students mature intellectually. We need to ask the role of criticism in architectural education and specifically in the studio environment. According to the transformation of education which started 25 years ago and became the norm, we are focusing in learning not teaching. Thus, students are not vessels to put all the information into them; information is useless unless a student can apply it to problems (real life or not) – use it. There is a need even in the studio to develop new methods to facilitate learning using problem based learning, flipped learning, peer instruction and blended learning methods.
Cumhuriyet'in Kadın Mimarları
(İBB Yayınları, 2023) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Dadyan, Saro
Cumhuriyet dönemi İstanbul’unun inşasında kadın mimarların rolünü anlamak için kadınların mimarlık eğitimi almaya başladıkları 1930’lardan itibaren Türkiye’nin mimarlık ortamını etkileyen ekonomik, politik ve kültürel gelişmelere değinmek gerekir. Eğitimli nüfusun ağırlıklı olarak İstanbul’da yaşadığı, yükseköğretime erişimin ayrıcalık olduğu, mimarlık eğitiminin henüz yalnızca İstanbul’da verildiği 1930’larda, toplumsal kimliklerden bağımsız olarak, mimarlık hizmetine yönelik talep genç Cumhuriyet’in kamu yapılarıyla sınırlı kalır. Sivil mimarlık üretimlerine yönelik talep ise mimarların mesleki meşruiyet mücadeleleri ile birlikte 1950’lerde atılan kurumlaşma adımları ile başlar. 1930’lardan bugüne, özellikle erken Cumhuriyet döneminin kamu yapıları; 1950’lerde çok partili dönemle beraber gelişen büyük ölçekli konut ve altyapı projeleri; 1980 sonrası ekonomi politikaları ile artan ticari yapılar ve turizm yapıları sürecin önemli eşikleri ve yapılı çevredeki yansımaları olarak tarif edilebilir.

Designing and building follies as a pedagogical approach in architectural design education
(UOU scientific journal, 2021) Avcı, Ozan
Architectural education has its own unique character in-between rational and creative thinking. Within this wide perspective, learning by doing becomes important so as to cover different aspects of this education. At MEF University Faculty of Arts Design and Architecture (FADA), we we've created a unique program called Design-Build Studio (DBS) in order to push creating and doing beyond the boundaries of architectural design studios at universities. In this essay, I would like to focus on follies that we have been designing since 2015 in our DBS program as a pedagogical approach in architectural design education. Follies are pregnant points that can give birth to various forms and functions. Their open structure allows a collective design process with the participation of tutors, students, users, locals, municipalities, and NGOs. Through DBS project our students get a real design experience in a real place with real people, discover the difficulties of this process, improve their communication skills and comprehend the power of design to be used as a tool to improve the lives of everyone. As a result, we believe that designing and creating follie-like structures is critical in architectural design education.
Directions for Getting Lost: or How To Change Your Mind
(2018) West, Mark W.
Architect Mark W West creates work that is incredibly delicately drawn. Here he documents the construction of his drawings, while his friend, whose name is also Mark West, contributes a commentary about the creative process behind them. The two texts reveal how the works defy the damage caused by reductive traditional architectural education and general experience, and open the viewer to a sense of greater wholeness, however disturbing this may be.
Free(?) Space at the 2018 Venice Biennale
(Intellect Books, 2019) Yücel, Şebnem
In his article ‘Out of Site/In Plain View: On the Origins and Actuality of the Architecture Exhibition’, architectural historian and curator Barry Bergdoll starts by asking the obvious question: ‘What does it mean to exhibit architecture? Isn’t architecture, once it is built, always already on display?’1 Despite always being on display, however, architecture escapes being exhibited. Because we cannot exhibit architecture in the way an artist can exhibit a painting or a sculpture.

How It Emerged That the Approach To Arts, Design, and Architecture Already Contains a Flip
(Emerald Group Publishing, 2016) İnceoğlu, Arda; Kurban, Caroline Fell; Şahin, Muhammed
Architectural education is open to Flipping by its very nature. Since 19th century, design studios have been at the core of very different models of architectural education. Design studios have always been always active learning environments where students learn by doing. Typically, students are presented with design problems to which they need to develop personal solutions. Thus, from the very beginning of their studies, students simulate how an actual architect would approach design problems. With each new design studio, they develop new skills or hone the ones they have already acquired. Such an approach immediately creates a learning culture which is based on active learning where students are challenged to take responsibility, to solve complex problems and develop their individual character as designers while being able to work in group environments. A design studio is not a course where information is given an it is expected the students learn and use that information. It is a collaborative learning environment. Thus, following the lead of design studios, flipping theoretical courses within the architectural curriculum and making them active learning environments should be almost natural. However, this is not necessarily the case. There is a wide gap in pedagogical approaches used between design studios and theory courses within architectural education (Allen, 1997; Chiuini, 2006; Smith, 2004; Oakley, B, Felder, R M, Brent, R; Elhajj, I, 2004). Courses on architectural technology (structures, construction methods, detailing) and to a lesser extent courses on history and theory of architecture are taught in more conventional ways with little emphasis on the application of the information discussed (Vassigh, 2005, 2009). Within this context, it is important to find ways to develop non-studio courses as active learning environments.
Institutional Architecture, Alternatives, and Opponents: Discussions on Architecture and Dwelling
(Royal College of Art, School of Architecture, MPhil/PhD Programmes, 2018) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Eyiler, Mert
If architecture shaped in relation to authoritarian hierarchies can be defined as institutional architecture, what can be other architectures at a distance to/against the institutional architecture? What are its culture and tools? Discussing this requires an understanding of the relationships between power and society. In response to this, ‘adaptation’ appealed to extend the discussions particularly to dwelling. To adapt and to be adapted are fundamentals of dwelling. Yet, they are usually understood to be limited to the relationship between the user and the space. While, thorough analysis of user-space interactions has informed many works and continue to be a source of architectural knowledge, ‘adaptation’ also extends to a larger network of relationships and stakeholders, as well as to discourses of institutional architecture, its alternatives and its opponents. The roundtable aims to bring these ramification of adaptation in relation to dwelling together. Discussions may consider varying conceptualisations of the word ‘adaptation’, and dwelling. How do users adapt to spaces and self-assert themselves? How do institutions and stakeholders adapt spaces for different purposes? What role do architects play in these?
İpucu: Ağ
(manifold.press, 2018) İnceoğlu, Arda
Batı ve Doğu dünyalarını, antik çağlardan beri ekonomik ve kültürel olarak birbirine bağlayan ipek ve baharat yolu sistemleri, dünyanın ücra köşelerinin sandığımızdan çok daha önce iletişim hâlinde olduğuna da işaret ediyor. Öyle ki, Çin’in bir kasabasında üzerinde Yunan mitolojisi ve asker motifi olan halılar, farklı Roma sikkeleri bulunabiliyor. Bu iletişim, atalarımızın yol ağının Batı bağlantısını önce karadan sonra da denizden kesmesiyle sona ermiyor. Ağ sisteminin uçları kıyılara bağlanıyor ve zaten mevcut olan deniz yoluyla ticaret sürüyor. Ümit burnu yolunun 15. yüzyılda açılmasıyla ticaret daha da artıyor; yol uzasa da aradaki tehlikeler bertaraf edilmiş oluyor. Önce Moğol, sonra da İran Safevi İmparatorluğu’nun çökmesi sonrası ağın bütünselliği parçalanıyor. Baharat ticareti daha yerel olarak devam etse de Britanya’nın Hindistan’ı yönetmeye başlaması ve ticareti Bombay limanına kaydırması Jaisalmer için felaket demek. Jaisalmer, dünya ölçeğindeki dev bir ticaret ağının kritik bir noktasında yer alırken, bir anda ıssız bir çölün ortasındaki ücra bir şehre dönüşüyor. Hindistan ve Pakistan’ın ayrılması bu ıssızlığı resmileştiriyor.
