Article Citation - WoS: 11Architectural Design Research: Drivers of Practice(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Aydemir, Ayse Zeynep; Jacoby, SamResearch, 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.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Adaptive Reuse of High-Rise Buildings for Housing: a Study of Istanbul Central Business District(Cogitatio Press, 2024) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Akın, TomrisThe 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.Article Citation - WoS: 2Sanctuary of a Thousand Adventures: Selimiye in the Besieged, Occupied, and Liberated Edirne(Wiley, 2023) Sarısakal, Beril; Sezgin, Ahmet[No available]Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Urban Politics and the Work and Labour Processes of Architecture: Survey Research With Young Architect-Workers in Turkey(Middle East Technical University, 2021) Sert, Esra; Aykaç, Gülşah; Zırh, Besim CanThere is a general tendency in architecture to insistently see the work andlabour conditions of architects independently from “the production of nature as urban space” (Sert, 2020) embedded in the neoliberal capitalist economic order. However, considering the socio-ecologically crisisprone environments in which we live, understanding the complicated relationship among nature, the urban, and society becomes more crucial than ever before (Heynen, et al., 2006; Harvey, 1996; Smith, 2008). This article aims to question the common trend that treats the production process of urban space as if it were independent of the working conditions of architects. Current architectural theory struggles to find concepts for guiding the complicated relationship of architectural process particularly working conditions of architects with urbanization of nature in the 21st century. Accordingly, as specialized citizens, architects try to rethink ecological and civic imaginaries (Karvonen, 2011) for understanding human embeddedness in space, time, nature, and place (Harvey, 1996;Gandy, 2006). © 2021,Metu Journal of the Faculty of Architecture.

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.Article Free(?) Space at the 2018 Venice Biennale(Intellect Books, 2019) Yücel, ŞebnemIn 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.Book Part How It Emerged That the Approach To Arts, Design, and Architecture Already Contains a Flip(Emerald Group Publishing, 2016) İnceoğlu, Arda; Sahin, Muhammed; Kurban, Caroline Fell; Kurban, Caroline Fell; Şahin, MuhammedArchitectural 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.
