Master Thesis Inclusive Design for Public Space in Basmane, Izmir: Psychogeography as a Design Method for Urban Furniture(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Ertürk, Aylin; Tunç Fox, Ayçaİzmir is a city that has attracted immigrants throughout the history, and Basmane in particular, has functioned as a transition hub in İzmir Basmane is a multicultural, multilingual and multiethnic district in İzmir People from different cultures and ethnicities live in this district. In such a district, people may need to have hospitality and a friendly atmosphere to live in harmony. The changes of living conditions and social structure due to mass migration, the design of urban space has become more important. It can be provided improvement people's quality of life and standards, contribution to society, creation of hospitable environment, and the feeling of belonging with urban space design. Urban furniture is the integral element of urban public spaces. Urban furniture is expected to meet human needs in public spaces. This study examines inclusive design in order to analyze the principles of urban furniture design. In order to get inclusive design approach and the accurate data of Basmane district, psychogeography was used as a design method. A questionnaire was conducted to reach out people and gather data regarding their needs in Basmane. With the consideration of the results of the dérive experience and based on the findings of the questionnaire, a suggestion of inclusive urban furniture design was shaped.Master Thesis Retrofit Strategies for Energy Efficiency in Historic Urban Fabric: a Case Study in Basmane District, Izmir(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2018) Ulu, Meltem; Durmuş Arsan, ZeynepEnergy efficient retrofit of historic urban stock requires a methodical approach, comprehensive analysis and case-specific solutions. In large scale rehabilitation projects, the retrofit strategy should be developed on how to decide solutions for buildings providing the most energy saving in a short time. This paper presents a pilot study conducted at the neighborhood scale, consisting of 22 pre- and early-republican residential and contemporary buildings in a historic urban fabric of İzmir, Turkey. It aims to develop an integrated approach to identify case-specific energy efficient solutions for retrofit strategy of larger scale historic district. It utilizes building performance simulation (BPS) model, created through the documentation and quick field survey. All case buildings are grouped under three main categories considering their heritage value and building characteristics. Two retrofit packages and three individual operational solutions are constituted by considering five-leveled retrofit impact assessment of the CEN EN 16883:2017 Standard. Within the integrated approach, energy classes of the buildings are calculated regarding Building Energy Regulation of Turkey. Most-related two design parameters, S/V and ground floor area to conditioned volume ratio, on annual energy consumption of the buildings in current cases are identified by Pearson correlation analysis. The simulation results indicated that, three buildings including Building 8, 11 and 21 representing each group can initially be retrofitted. Building 11 has the most energy saving potential through Package 2 in its own group. For all buildings, while maximum energy saving was provided by Package 2 with 48,57%, minimum energy saving obtained from Package 1 with 19,8%.
