Article To Restore the Dignity of Repair: Care, Architectural Education, and Resistance in a Broken World(Intellect Ltd, 2026) Yucel, SebnemArticle The Curse of the Phoenix: on Rebuilding Beirut and Hatay(Intellect Ltd., 2025) Yücel, Ş.E.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Building a Community Through a Design Build Studio Program(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2025) Inceoglu, ArdaThis paper aims to provide a comprehensive and critical assessment of the outcomes stemming from a Design-Build program, a pedagogical approach widely adopted by educational institutions worldwide. These programs are instrumental in equipping students with vital practical skills, often unattainable within the confines of a conventional studio environment. While the objectives of this program align with those of similar initiatives in various educational institutions, an examination reveals an unexpected and substantial outcome. Beyond its primary goals, the Design-Build program has played an integral role in instilling a culture of collaboration and camaraderie within the school, thereby significantly contributing to the overall success of its architectural education. All stages of the program consist of collaborative processes, instilling from an early age the importance of working together by helping each other than individual competition.Conference Object Courts & Kalfas: Patronage Relationships in Selim III’s Reign(Koç University Research Center For Anatolian Civilizations (ANAMED), 2024) Türker, Deniz; Uğurlu, A. HilalThe patronage networks of the members of Sultan Selim III’s extended court, specifically his mother, sisters, cousins, and their respective mothers, expand what is already written about the “Greek” artists, architects, and craftsmen who serviced the imperial family. This paper delves into the role of Greek kalfas, akin to modern architects, who served Selim III and his female relatives. It specifically examines figures such as Komyanoz, Foti, Todori, and Yani Kalfas, exploring their professional lives, which typically began in the imperial arsenal as shipbuilders. These individuals worked under—or alongside—French shipbuilders/architects, who were invited to the Capital by the court in the eighteenth century. Another important but overlooked aspect of their lives is the deep professional (and possibly familial) connections these men had with Aegean islands. The cultural interactions with Italian and French influences might shed light on the decorative tastes they adopted, practiced, and disseminated, particularly in palatial interiors. Additionally, this investigation might help us uncover the business networks of these kalfas, for example, their relations with 'woodcarvers from Chios.'Mapping the multiple and often simultaneous imperial building projects which these kalfas oversaw and examining the privileges they received from their patrons upon the successful and timely completion of these projects demonstrates the significance of these actors for the imperial family. Furthermore, these privileges—whether granted or sought—highlight not only the intense competition among these kalfas but also their deep awareness of each other's professional lives, underscoring the stakes of their interactions. The paper also offers close readings of the lengthy correspondence between Esma Sultan, Abdülhamid I’s daughter, her kethüda (personal accountant/asset manager) Ömer Ağa and her remarkably involved mother Sineperver, on the prolonged building process of her new waterfront mansion in Eyüb. These texts not only reveal insights about Komyanoz Kalfa, a Greek-Ottoman architect from Phanar tasked with the mansion's design and construction, but also about the operational methods of these builders and the decorum of engagement with different members of Esma’s own court. Additionally, the correspondence highlights Sineperver's pivotal role in supporting her daughter by overseeing the project and reveals the architect-client relationship. The paper ends with a rumination on the anonymous Greek artist who accompanied the English architect Charles Robert Cockerell (d. 1863) and allowed the foreigner to sketch domestic architectural features of spaces (instead of the usual grand imperial sites) that were contemporaneous with Esma’s now non-extant Eyüb mansion.Book Sacred Spaces and Urban Networks(ANAMED, 2019) Uğurlu, Ayşe Hilal; Yalman, Suzan; Uğurlu, Ayşe HilalWith its history that goes back millennia, Anatolia is studded with sites from different eras that are deemed “sacred.” The collected essays in this volume present diachronic and synchronic studies of Anatolian sacred sites from the medieval period onward that situate them within various spatial, urban, and sociocultural dynamics. Each article explores unique case studies that illustrate the role of human agency in the creative process of transforming awe-inspiring sites into sacred spaces. Collectively, the volume reveals that the magnetic qualities of such destinations create a web of sanctity, as well as a complicated matrix of economic, political, and social relations. The scholarly contributions published here emerged from the 11th International ANAMED Annual symposium, entitled “Sacred Spaces + Urban Networks” and held at Istanbul’s Koç University Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations (ANAMED) in December 2016. This symposium brought together prominent scholars in the field and former fellows of the research center, including the volume’s editors. While our initial goal was to explore different layers of sacredness in Anatolia, ultimately, the volume sheds light on parallels among case studies and presents the connectedness between these layers.Book Part Design-Build Build/Design: an Inquiry-Based Approach To Teaching Beginning Design Students(Taylor and Francis, 2018) Subotincic, NatalijaThis chapter describes an alternate design studio approach that eschews the concept first pedagogy universally adopted in design studio education, avoiding the resulting trap of the seemingly endless formal manipulations that all too often displace the more inclusive material and technical development of a design. The introduction of "design-build" studios and programs into the academic architectural curricula of many schools worldwide reflects recognition of the unhealthy and artificial separation made between design studio culture and the content of technical courses and constitutes an important way of bridging this self-imposed gap. Preserving the simultaneity of concerns and relationships during the design process, although difficult, is rather crucial to an "inquiry-based" approach to learning. When beginning design students start a project without a particular building system in mind, they tend to flounder with respect to design decisions about the tectonic constraints and technical/constructional possibilities of their designs. © 2019 Taylor and Francis.Book Part Mobile Mars Habitation(Springer International Publishing, 2023) Müge Halıcı, Süheyla; Özdemir, Kürşad; Halıcı, Süheyla MügeThis chapter focuses on the concept of mobile habitation on Mars. A description of Mars’ surface features is followed by a review of early concepts of crewed mobility for the Moon and Mars. Wheeled concepts for crew mobility continue to be based on the success of the Lunar Roving Vehicle, and predominantly take the form of a pressurized rover on wheels. With the help of architectural diagrams, the chapter introduces a range of habitable and mobile Mars structures, and the technologies used, taking into account mission requirements. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2023, corrected publication 2023.Book Part Book Part Article
