The orthographic set: making architecture visible
Türkay, Seray; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2011)
The meaning of term “representation” has shifted in both relevancy and definition in the discipline of architecture with the introduction of computational design technologies. The assumption of this study is that the selected mode of representation has the power to affect the process of design and even the production of architecture. At the present time, while the discipline is witnessing a change in its tendencies and terminologies, such as from drawing to 3D modeling, from construction to fabrication, and...
Sketch as the agent of the “creative genius” paradigm death of drawing discussions in the framework of the new digital sketching technologies
Özkam, Nuran; Zelef, Mustafa Haluk; Department of Architecture (2018)
Sketching as the first step in architectural design is explored in this study in the light of the digital invasion to the realm of architecture. The question of whether freehand sketching is dead or going through a revival is studied along with researching new definitions of “sketching” and “drawing”, in addition, contemporary digital tools and methods of sketch production are explored. The main scope is concerned with the analysis of the digital technologies regarding its capacity in facilitating the sketc...
Drawing as a “critical act”: fiction and the unconventional architecture of Lebbeus Woods
Köken, Burcu; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2015)
This thesis, essentially aims to explore the processes of architecture production by focusing on political motive forces; through the utilization of a crucially assigned medium, the “drawing.” It will be an inquiry into drawing as a creative and “critical” architectural product. The significance of the drawing, not solely as an instrument for architecture, but also as an entity itself, had mentioned by Diana Agrest, as she describes “architectural production” in three subtitles which she calls “texts”: writ...
The architectural precedent and the diagram: a comparative analysis of Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye and Rem Koolhaas' Maison a Bordeaux
Küçük, Alper; İmamoğlu, Vacit; Department of Architecture (2007)
The last decade of the 20th century witnessed a revival of interest in the idea of diagrams in many disciplines, including architecture. Thus, terms like 'diagram architecture' and 'diagrammatic practice' have started to dominate the architectural discourse, both in theory and practice. Although much of the contemporary work examined under the rubric 'diagram architecture' celebrate diagram's capacity to generate new ideas and forms and embrace the diagram as a tool to revolt against the authority of establ...
An Agentic account of design intentionality in computational architecture
Tüntaş, Duygu; Mennan, Zeynep; Department of Architecture (2018)
This thesis aims at understanding alterations in the conceptualization of design intentionality in relation to technological advances that bring new synthetic configurations to the world of design. The concept of intentionality used to be defined as central to human consciousness hence design intention regarded as exclusive to the human mind. The contemporary technological/ontological condition seems to displace this conceptualization of design intentionality sustained in conventional design processes, to t...
