BLACKFRIARS TRANSCRIPTS:
Stories of folks walking through the hidden promenade of Blackfriars
The following project is a fragment of the entire thesis, which asks questions about experiential space and attempts to define it through theories that intersect with film and architecture. The reading of cities, typologies and design approaches is based on the accepted value system inherent to the entire research and is defined as “cinematic architecture”. The heterogeneous London was analysed through these acquired lenses, considering the city in terms of scenarios and not as a fixed cityscape. Particularly during the period of urban change in post-war London, the utopian idea of connecting the city through elevated walkways was a focus of this study due to its experimental nature and morphology associated with “cinematic architecture.” The design resulted in fragmentary interventions along the pedestrian walkway in Blackfriars and its extension toward the Thames as a public promenade, with one of the fragments collaged in the city view. The actions triggered by these spatial and urban qualities constitute the programme. As if the actions of viewing, walking, and performing have carved a space for their movements.

If the unfolding views while walking through the pedway create a cinematic experience, as it happens in filmstrip, then the designs in this urban context are cadres interpositioned between the whole story. In other words, design interventions are “fragments” of the new story “montaged” into the existing story. The qualities of these fragments are defined by the existing thresholds, such as (1)the illumination of dark corridors, (2)the transformation of niches into public interior spaces, (3)the addition of an observation tower in the in-between courtyard and (4)a building outside of the pedway.

Montage is a technique that, in simple terms, allows a new total work of art to emerge from the combination of parts;the project aims to introduce this technique into the architectural composition,represented by the superimposition of material surfaces.Here facade,as montaged, shows different materials on top of each other. It also gives an indication of the dynamics inside the building through the overlaps and breakthroughs.

LINEAR GARDENS
Linear composition dominates the urban character of the Pelgrimsstraat and permeates into the interior of the Diepeveen through the vertical and horizontal rhythms: the bicycle lines, tram rails, the forest of columns of the existing structure. The building embraces this imposing harmony and as a threshold zone reflects it back through the negative volumes, the interplay of light and shadow and the layering of transparency which, paradoxically, acts as a border between different purposes. The heart of the project, the salon, emerges as a resultant consequence of the extrusions which pierce the space – following the order of the exterior, they ordain the interior along with its most significant part which adjusts instead of dominating. This spatial distribution attunes the functional one – reaching the salon is not the goal in itself but the path leading to it offers intriguing moments of movement and reflection through the various corners and corridors. They are the result of the main intrusion which divides the building in two: the formal salon and the informal one which is meant to attract the raw social tissue of the streets – the bikers, the artists and the musicians.The material transparency contrasts with the compositional complexity and ambiguity, allowing for the hidden and open interaction to take place in both the informal and formal meeting spaces. The gradual transition defines the levels of privacy reflected in the typology of the gardens, namely the ‘honest’, the ‘secret’ and the ‘unexpected’. The material ‘coldness’ of the glazing and the aluminium panel walls is balanced with the enclosing timber facades and the soft river stones of the gardens.

ETERNAL SUNSHINE
The capacity of the archive grows until the collector stops its research or has reached the end of the source. But if the source is Istanbul it has no limits. This brought to an idea of eternity –Istanbul an endless source of information. Especially people are supporters of this eternity, showing an important role in creating the data. The written source about the life of an ordinary man barely can be reached, but official reports of compulsory documents are giving a partial image of inhabitants of the city. That is why here the topic Istanbul archive additionally was specified on collecting police station reports. The written transcripts in a wide range from two-person conflict to city`s murderers from up to date incidents to political movement that can create a data and be valuable for individuals from different professions. The project area of an archive for Istanbul should be located in a place that creates a link between the attributes that make up the character of the city, such as port, industry, history and liveliness.Therefore, the area - Shishaneknown as a historic site for the lighting industry and located in
close proximity to the shipyards and Galata, was chosen for the project. The plot has historically developed a radiant shape as a link between these characters of the city. However, over the years it had lost its shape. The project, therefore, aims to restore the radiality, reference the lighting industry, and become a bridge for city`s different faces. connecting different characters of the city

STRATEGY FOR THE FACADE TYPOLOGY -
The idea of façade comes from the lighting industry of Shishane. The structure of the building creates a grid on the façade. After adding surfaces that are bulging, the façade gets rid of monotony. The archive storages and important public zones have stressed by exaggerated bulges. Little window openings conceptually represent lighting/shine.

I08 VISITOR CENTER INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY AUSTRIA (ISTA)
This project stands as a testament to architectural innovation and harmonious integration with the natural landscape – a visitor centre designed for an Institute of Science in Austria. Upon joining the team, I contributed to the final stages, as the project was nearing the tender and execution phases. The design philosophy was rooted in maintaining architectural transparency, ensuring that the new structure seamlessly blended into the existing landscape. A defining feature of the design is the unique roof, conceptualized as an art installation that captivates the attention of visitors and serves as a guiding beacon towards the heart of the campus.
Over the course of three months, I explored different aspects of the project, following the principles of Austrian regulations that emphasized careful attention to detail for the tender process. During this time, I took on a range of tasks that highlighted my flexibility as an architect:
** Revisions to Main Design Drawings: (1:100 sections, elevation, plans) This stage required precision and attention to nuance, as these drawings would be pivotal in guiding the construction process.
** Revisions to Furniture Design
** Revisions to plans for different building construction elements such as electrical Plans, painting work,etc.
** 1:50 Terrace Build-up Details
** Assisted with Rhino Model: Given that the project’s 3D model was constructed using Grasshopper for the purpose of construction, my responsibility was to translate this model into comprehensive 2D drawings that could be readily utilized for the construction process. This process required a deep understanding of both the design intent and the practical execution.
**Drawings for Building Permit: As the project transitioned towards execution, my responsibilities extended to preparing drawings for the requisite building permits. This phase highlighted the critical intersection between architectural creativity and adherence to regulatory standards.
