    Faculty Office Buildings as Work Environments: Spatial Configuration, Social Interaction, Collaboration and Sense of Community
    (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, 2013) Kılıç Çalğıcı, Pınar; Czerkauer-Yamu, Claudia; Çil, Ela; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    We aim to identify the role of spatial configuration in the social interaction, collaboration and sense of community at academia. We focus on the spatial configuration of three school buildings used by three different departments within the campus of a university in Izmir and utilize both spatial and social data. We have analyzed spatial data by Visual Graph Analysis (VGA) and searched for the spatial integration of the buildings with different plan typologies, but all have cell-based office configuration, which constitute linear plans with atrium, L-shaped and square with repeating floor plans. Social data is gathered by a questionnaire survey that is conducted with faculty members enquiring their office location in relation to spatial integration, sense of community, interaction and collaboration. We use correlation and regression analyses for the analyses of social data. Findings suggest that collaboration is independent of the plan typology but spatial integration promotes interaction and sense of community.

    Limits of Re-Writing and Legibility of Transformations in Istanbul's Historic Peninsula: an Interpretation Inspired From the Wabi-Sabi Philosophy
    (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, 2013) Taraz, Nazlı; Taraz, Nazlı; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The Japanese philosophy Wabi regards beauty as the results of imperfections and changes of daily life, and Sabi teaching supports this attitude by advocating the idea that life experiences and accumulation of years are important factors increasing beauty. From the viewpoint of Wabi- Sabi, urban transformation is an inevitable and imperfect activity that, nevertheless, always progresses to beauty. In this article, the Wabi-Sabi philosophy will be related to the event’s theme “imperfection” and life experiences to analyze Istanbul as “the palimpsest city”. The discussion will be carried out step by step from the first urban settlement at the Historic Peninsula and the following transformations in the light of Wabi-Sabi philosophy, by tracing the continuities and changes at the civic heart of the city.
