Arch 401 Architectural Design V
Group3: Zeynep Mennan + Rüya İpek Balaban + Duygu Tüntaş Design Research on Hybridization Hybridization is a resurgent category in contemporary architectural programming and though the hybrid building typology is not new, the concept itself and the design strategies developed are differentiated as the category evolves. Complexity, concentration and hybridization appear today as the essential components of contemporary urban contexts with important political, economical, social and cultural implications, and many urban projects require the housing of multiple and sometimes incompatible functions together. The tendency for hybridization contaminates modernist purity by introducing indeterminacy into architectural programs and bringing forth new possibilities for formal/architectural expression. The high-rise is a parallel category, closely related with the hybrid category. The hybrid and the high-rise constituted the thematic/conceptual focus of this term’s studio work. The project site consists of the urban lot diagonally opposite the Atakule Complex, extending into Atakule itself. The design task is to develop a program for a hybrid complex of approx. 25,000m2, that will comprise residential, cultural, commercial uses as well as interaction spaces, outdoor spaces, services and parking. The complex should address the multiple issues raised by hybridization as well as affirmatively engaging with its surrounding community, activating space with quotidian public-life and (un)organized events, supporting the contemporary needs, values and changing life-styles of citizens and providing comfort at social, physical and technological levels.
Melezleme Üzerine Bir Tasarım Araştırması Melezleme, bugün çağdaş mimarlık söyleminde yeniden gündeme gelen ve melez yapı tipolojisini yeni tasarım stratejileri ile ele alarak kavramı yeniden sorgulayan bir kategori olarak ortaya çıkıyor. Mimari programlarda belirsizlik ve yeni biçimsel/mimari ifade olanakları yaratan melez yapılar, ve melezleme ile yakından ilişkili paralel bir kategori olan yüksek yapılar stüdyonun kavramsal/tematik odak noktası olarak ele alındı. Proje alanı olarak Hoşdere Caddesi ve Simon Bolivar Caddesi’nin kesişiminde yer alan parsel ile Atakule’nin beraber çalışılması öngörüldü. Bu iki alan için, öğrencilerden yaklaşık 25,000m2’lik bir program önermeleri istendi.
