Traditional cities have evolved through a series of local codes from material use and architecture of the buildings to the syntactic structure of settlement pattern. The building rules embedded within the multi-layered nature of the traditional urbanism characterizes traditional towns in specific manners. Various combination of the rule sets in specific manners, therefore, is the main factor in the characterization of different urban contexts and their evolution, accordingly. In this regard, any design act put in practice within the fabric of any traditional urban context has a real challenge to adapt themselves within such particular evolutionary processes. Since evolution does not only involve the fundamental mechanism of inheritance, but variation in the form of generation of the unprecedented forms and patterns, formulation of the new in a subtle yet critical continuity with the existing patterns can be seen as a major challenge of any innovative design which respects for the already evolved types in urbanism. In the architectural design discourse, such a perspective has long been identified as ‘Critical Regionalism’. In the context of urbanism, this approach is yet to be elaborated by robust design methods including the generative interpretation of the traditional spatial typologies. This research, from this perspective, is an attempt to suggest a methodological framework for the generation of contemporary urban fabric via the design codes of the traditional urban form. To that end, Uçhisar, one of the most characteristic traditional settlements in Turkey is selected for the development and testing the suggested generative method of typological urban design from the perspective of Critical Regionalism.

A study on different dynamic solar shading control strategies using multi criteria design optimization
Gürsel Dino, İpek (null; 2016-10-15)
The correct design of shading devices that control the amount of daylighting entering a building is an integral part of performative building design. Solar control devices have the potential to reduce building cooling load, improve the daylighting performance and reduce the negative effect of glare in building spaces. Solar shading design strategies, therefore, need to consider multiple criteria together and find an optimal tradeoff between them. This paper presents our experiments on differe...
A Case Study on Identification of Traditional Timber Framed House: Konuralp
Bayazitoğlu, Ümit Ceren; Cengiz, Seda (THE ATHENS INSTITUTE FOR EDUCATION AND RESEARCH; 2016-07-05)
In Anatolian rural settlements, it can be observed that, local architectural components form the urban and the architectural identity of the district. One of these factors is the construction style of the buildings. In the paper, the structural systems of registered and nonregistered timber civil architecture examples, basically from the first half of the 20th century, that constructed in an area having potential in different perspectives will be analyzed. The field of study is Konuralp; a town of the city ...
A Conceptual model proposal of dynamic architecture with dynamic internal walls as interaction interface
Gür, Elif Nadide; Baykan, Ahmet Can; Department of Architecture (2018)
Dynamic Architecture first appeared in 20th century in the field of architecture and have been seen under various names over time such as Transformable Architecture, Responsive Architecture, Adaptive Architecture, Intelligent Architecture and so on. Each of them are specialized on their abilities of responsiveness, transformation and intelligence in accordance with the economic, functional and energy requirements. The reason why Dynamic Architecture is developing fast is that it the follows the latest impro...
A new approach for defining the conservation status of early Republican architecture, case study : primary school buildings in İzmir
Kul, Fatma Nurşen; Madran, Emre; Department of Architecture (2010)
International discussions on the conservation of the twentieth-century architectural heritage emphasize the diversity of the whole of the built environment of the entire century, rather than limiting consideration to canonic examples of the architectural historiography during the identification and assessment of the properties to be conserved. In contrast to this international holistic and inclusive approach, the approach to the identification and assessment of the properties in Turkey has in general been s...
An investigation into building occupant behavior of different household typologies in architecture
Erol Ağırsoy, Meliha İpek; Gürsel Dino, İpek; Department of Architecture (2022-2)
Humans who directly interact with the built environment are a significant parameter of the architectural design process. The uncertainty in occupant behavior is a variable parameter of sustainability in architecture. Human building interaction affects energy consumption and creates an unpredicted result for the building's calculated energy use. The interaction between the occupant and the building is significant for establishing new areas of architectural inquiry. The study aims to observe the influence of ...
