Master Thesis Evaluation of Window Design and Daylight Performance of Main Room in Kula Houses(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2020) Battal, Cansu; İpekoğlu, Başak; Kazanasmaz, TuğçeWhen developing restoration decisions for conservation of historic houses, determination of daylight performance of the spaces is important for new usage proposals. Among the rooms located around sofa in Anatolian historical houses, main room is the most spectacular space. It should have sufficient and homogeneously distributed daylight in restored houses. This study aims to examine daylight performance of main room and preserve original lighting features in restoration and re-functioning decisions. For this purpose, Kaçıklar, Zabunlar, Kestaneciler and Zühtü Bey Houses, were selected as examples for the research. Daylight performance measurements were taken in main rooms in all seasons, in the morning, at noon, in late afternoon using an illuminance meter. As a result of the study, it was determined that illumination was not sufficient for all seasons in unrestored Kaçıklar House, sufficient for all seasons in unrestored Zabunlar House, in restored Kestaneciler House, also sufficient in restored Zühtü Bey House in autumn whereas insufficient in other seasons. In Kaçıklar House, opening the window that was closed, cleaning the paint on top windows, selecting a light-coloured wall finish material will positively affect lighting values. In restored Zühtü Bey House, the window, converted into a built-in cupboard, and the closed top window to be restored to original state and cleaning of improper paint on the top windows on the south wall will affect the lighting level positively. This study is important in terms of determining specific daylight illumination properties of historical houses and underlines the improvement of repair and conservation decisions.Master Thesis User Lighting Preferences in Museums and Galleries: Virtual Models and a Survey for Multiple Exhibition and Lighting Conditions(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Çevik, Aslıhan; Kazanasmaz, TuğçeJust as any other interior, lighting quality of exhibition spaces need to be examined to enhance visual quality and comfort. Exhibition lighting is already a chaotic process with many quantitative and qualitative parameters, their relation with each other and concerns of multi-disciplines. Consequently, the impacts and the potentials of subjective appreciation, daylight, user perception and behavior, new developments and the relation between the parameters are often disregarded. In this thesis, a comprehensive study is conducted to understand the impact of lighting type, color temperature, room and exhibition parameters on navigation and impressions. A set of three exhibition spaces with various room and lighting conditions were modelled virtually, to be evaluated in a three-part questionnaire. A total of 90 participants are selected equally from three profession groups which are architects, visitors and artists. Their movement through the exhibition, preferences and impressions are analyzed with various statistical analysis methods. Results show that there are some distinctive preferences between occupation groups. In the first part, it can be seen that navigation choices changes with the lighting type as the movement towards daylight increases in transition areas and the end. Generally, daylight is preferred for sculpture while artificial light is preferred for paintings. In the second and third part, it was found out that lighting type is the major factor against color temperature in preference and impressions. The best setting is picked as single spotlight with neutral color temperature. Warm ambient lighting is not received well. Ultimately, lighting preferences and perception change with different room and exhibition conditions.
