Nature provides a vast amount of information to be learnt in various scales with different level of complexities in architecture. Today, the increasing role of computational design and advents in new fabrication technologies enable architectural praxis to incorporate data coming from various disciplines in the design process. Among them, data coming from nature with its animate and inanimate parts are began to be revisited more than before via different approaches. In this study, information transfer from nature to architecture is described as a mapping process defined with different levels depending on the complexity of the information transfer process. Present study explains these levels and exemplifies through the study conducted in Nature-informed Computational Design course.

Nature-informed architecture (NIA): learning from defects in crystals
Kruşa Yemişcioğlu, Müge; Sorguç, Arzu; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2021-1-27)
The transformation of design problems, processes, and praxis of construction by continuously increasing data mass is one of the major concerns of this dissertation.In this change, nature is re-emerging as an important source of information in the search for suchprocesses, in which architects become not only their designers but also their programmers and even their supervisors.This dissertation values defects in nature and abiotic part of it as a source of information in design. Wh...
Architecture Taking Shape Between Nature and Culture: The Primitive Hut as a Man-Made Creation
Topçuoğlu, Feyza (2022-01-01)
Architecture’s bounds with nature are represented as a complex process in a perverse cycle in the linear history of architecture and the process is intertwined with human actions, resulting in the built environment. Architecture tries to legitimize itself by incorporating culture to control and spatialize over nature in the socio-cultural dimension. This study aims to analyse architecture as remain in-between nature and culture by problematizing and questioning nature/culture dualism in the context of mimes...
Hesaplamalı Modeller Aracılığıyla Mimari ve Doğal Biçim Türetim İlkelerini İlişkilendirmek
Erdogan, Elif; Sorguç, Arzu (2011-01-01)
The contemporary approach towards architecture is an outcome of cross-fertilization of ideas between computation and biology. Computation, as an interface, instructs analyzing, understanding and reinterpreting the informal structure of natural organizations (such as system, information flow, and process through time) for artificial form generation. Consequently, with the computational theory we are going through a 'rethinking about our environment and restructuring its systems' epoch where processes, relati...
MAPPING IN URBANISM: THE ROLE OF MAPS AND MAPPING IN URBAN DESIGN THINKING
Tufan, Aybüke; Çalışkan, Olgu; Urban Design in City and Regional Planning Department (2022-8-31)
Maps have been primary representations of space for centuries and the traditional approaches in cartographic production have bounded mapping practices in a rigid, conventional, and scientific framework. Within that framework, the relationship between maps and urbanism was limited to the representative aspects of mapping to read the visible elements of geographies, regions, cities, and built environments. However, with the post-representative, post-structuralist and postmodern theories on maps and mapping, a...
