Conference Object Learning From Pedagogical Experiments: an Alternative Reading of Architectural Design Studio(Escuela Politécnica Superior Alicante University, 2018) Aydemir, Ayşe ZeynepPedagogical experiments in the second half of the twentieth century are regarded as evidences of thresholds in architectural design education. Many traditional approaches including apprenticeship, reproduction of existing forms and structures are left behind; and many novel approaches became valid including spatial investigations, using tools and new technology, critical thinking, non-linearity, social and political engagement, interdisciplinarity, participation and questioning the role of architecture. From this point, this study aims to illuminate how these pedagogical experiments challenged and transformed the domain of architecture and beyond. In order to address this transformation, the study presents and discusses the pedagogical experiments through the framework of five themes: systematicity, linearity, simultaneity, participation and complexity.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.Conference Object Design Research and a Shift in Architectural Education and Practice(Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2020) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Jacoby, SamResearch, once associated only with academia, now equally connects to learning and practice in architecture, as focus has shifted towards a wider design research community. Research has become inclusive of formerly marginalised areas such as process-oriented and practice-based research in the arts and humanities as well as applied commercial research undertaken by industry. Providing a first study of this shift, this paper explores why design research is of growing importance to architecture. It systematically analyses a selection of current cases at the intersection of architectural practice and education within the UK to survey existing design research approaches, and asks: How can design research transform and create new architectural practices and forms of education? Following this question, the paper discusses some of the design research models used across architectural practice and education.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.Book Part Cumhuriyet'in Kadın Mimarları(İBB Yayınları, 2023) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Dadyan, SaroCumhuriyet 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.Other Stüdyoda Pozisyonlar(XXI Mimarlık, Tasarım ve Mekan dergisi, 2019) Aydemir, Ayşe ZeynepStüdyoyu tetikleyecek bir kavramsal tartışma ortamı hazırlamak, temsili bir düşünme aracı olarak kullanmak, stüdyo mekanını ve rolleri dönüştürmek gibi temel taktikleri uzun uzadıya tartışmak mümkün. Bu taktiklerin gelecekte kendi öğrenim programını oluşturmak, işbirliği ve diyalog, deney, doğaçlama, yeni yapma biçimleri ve açık kaynak gibi konuları ön plana taşıyacağı da görülüyor. Fakat hazırlanan bu ortamlarla birlikte, aslında katılımcıların diğerleriyle, sunulan ortamla ve stüdyo mekanıyla kurduğu ilişki stüdyonun ritmini belirliyor. Stüdyo katılımcıları, stüdyo ortamına sahip çıktığı sürece yürütücüsü, üreticisi ve öğreneni oluyor.Presentation 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, MertIf 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?Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3Architectural Design Research in Small Practices(Emerald, 2022) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Jacoby, SamThere has been a recently growing interest by architects in practice-based research and the impact of research. At the same time, several post-graduate architecture programmes with practice-led research agendas were founded. This shift towards architectural design research is analysed using the notions of “process-driven research”, “output-driven research” and “impact”. The study aims to investigate and unveil the link between graduate programmes and graduates with a research interest and to test the tripartite model of “process-driven research”, “output-driven research” and “impact” in the context of small architectural practices. The study uses a qualitative and exploratory research approach that includes 11 in-depth interviews conducted in 2020, during the first nationwide COVID-19 lockdown in the United Kingdom (UK) selected interviews were architects representing (1) members or alumni of practice-related graduate architecture programmes in London and (2) founders of London-based small architectural practices within the last decade. While focussing on the London context, the paper offers transferable insights for the key potentials of practice-led design research in small architectural practices and the actions that might improve research practice. This paper addresses a lack of studies on how design research differs between diverse types and sizes of architectural firms, why emerging small architectural practices increasingly engage with research and how this shapes their practice. This knowledge is important to fully understanding architectural design research and its strengths or weaknesses.Master Thesis Remembering the role of Kars stream in the daily lives of people of Kars: Ideas about a possible revitalization(MEF Üniversitesi, 2024) Arslanbenzer, Hatice Merve; İnceoğlu, Ahmet Arda; Aydemir, Ayşe ZeynepÇaylar içinden geçtikleri şehirlerin her zaman için en önemli parçası olmuştur. Bereketli topraklar sunmuş, akan suyundaki enerji ile bu topraklardan elde edilen ürünlerin işlenmesini şağlamış, şehirlinin temizlik ve rekreasyon ihtiyacını karşılamıştırlar. Endüstrileşme ile alternatif kaynaklar bu ihtiyaçları karşılar hale gelince derelere olan ihtiyaç da yön değiştirmiştir. Şehrin hayatını devam ettirebilmesini sağlayacak olan şehrin atık sularını uzaklaştırma görevi derelere verilmiştir. Geçtiğimiz birkaç on yılda şehirlerin derelere olan ihtiyaçları tekrar yön değiştirmiştir. Şehirleri yaşamaya değer yerler haline getirecek en önemli kaynaklardan biri olmuştur. Kars'ta da bu değişim yaşanmıştır. 2000'lerin başından itibaren bir zamanlar Kars Çayının olan mekanlar üzerine odaklanılmıştır. Kars Çayı'nın mekanlarını tekrar şehre katma çabaları Kars Çayı'ndan bağımsız ele alındığı için şehre katabilecekleri değerlerin çok azıyla yetinilmekte hatta mevcut potansiyeli de yapılan uygulamalarla yok edilmektedir. Bu tez Kars Çayının ve mekanlarının Karslıların gündelik hayatına katabilecekleri tüm potansiyellerini ortaya çıkarabilmek için Kars Çayının ve mekanlarının bütüncül hikayesine odaklanmaktadır. Bu tez, Kars Çayının bütücül hikayesinin anlaşılması sayesinde tüm potansiyeli ile gündelik hayata dahil olabileceği argümanına dayanmaktadır. İlk olarak Kars Çayı'nın bir zamanlar gündelik hayatına dahil olduğu insanlardan yarı strüktüre edilmiş röportajlarla anıla toplanmıştır. Burdan edinilen bilgiler temelinde anlamlandırma çabası genişletilmiş ve bir Kars Çayı hikayesi yazılmaya çalışılmıştır. Elde edilen bilgiler analiz edilerek Kars Çayı ile olan kopmuş ilişkilerin tamiri için öneriler getirilmiştirConference Object A Design-Build Studio: Kilyos Boathouse [2020](European Association for Architectural Education, 2020) Aydemir, Ayşe Zeynep; Sezgin, Ahmet; İnceoğlu, ArdaAs 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.
