    Turkish Women Architects in the Late Ottoman and Early Republican Era, 1908-1950
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2007) Erdoğdu Erkarslan, Özlem
    This article examines the public status and educational background of Turkish women architects from 1908 to 1950. Writings on the history of architecture in Turkey, as in the West, have focused on heroic male figures. Key works produced before the late 1970s used data gathered mainly from Arkitekt, the first Turkish architectural magazine, whilst a second generation of Turkish architectural historians has preferred to investigate state and private archives. It is impossible to find a mention of women as architects in either bodies of work, although their contributions are indeed evident in the pages of Arkitekt. This article aims to fill some of these gaps in the highly gendered history of modern Turkish architecture by identifying and examining women's work as architects in Turkey in the first half of the twentieth century. It also explores the relationship between the women's liberation movement, the discipline of architecture, and modernization ideology associated with the Turkish Republic. It argues that women architects, who undertook important private commissions and were permitted to enter public competitions as anonymous entrants, did not encounter overt discrimination until the 1940s. Nevertheless, forms of indirect discrimination across the period served to silence women in the pages of the architectural press and to occlude them from key public commissions and offices.

    A Cinematic Narration of Urban Segregation Through Migration in Turkey: an Analysis of the Film Block-C Directed by Zeki Demirkubuz
    (Intellect Ltd., 2025) Aydin, M.F.; Erdoğdu Erkarslan, Özlem; Erkarslan, Ö.; Erkarslan, Önder
    Metropolitan life is always one of the major concerns of modernity as well as the set for the cinematic art. The critical gaze of cinema throws a light on how cities provide various social and architectural contexts for diversified groups as an indispensable part of the scenario. This study delves into the portrayal of metropolitan life in Zeki Demirkubuz’s 1994 film C Blok (Block-C) through the intertwined concepts of spatial alienation, urban segregation and urban migration. Situated within the context of 1990s Istanbul, the film serves as a microcosm for exploring the social and architectural landscape of Turkish modernity. It scrutinizes the interactions between diverse social classes residing in a suburban apartment complex, offering critical insights into how western-style modernization has shaped urban spaces and individual experiences. In this context, the theoretical foundation of this research encompasses the advent of western-style modernization in Turkey, its permeation into societal realms, and the concept of spatial alienation at the social stratum. Moreover, adopting a critical thinking perspective, this study probes the notions of home and house, elucidating their implications for individuality within the framework of spatial alienation. © 2025 Intellect Ltd.

    Life Ciycle Assessment (lca) Based Home Rating Model for Izmir (hrm-Izmir)
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Bozkurt, Eray; Erkarslan, Özlem
    This thesis presents the development and application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) based home rating model for residential buildings in Izmir. It aims to develop building performance assessment within a single application. This new application supports various considerations throughout the building.s life cycle in relation to performance domains such as site ecology, energy consumption, material selection, lighting availability, transportation and the rest of the performance indicators. It is intended to encourage initiatives toward achieving better housing performance. ATHENA Canadian Software tool has been selected to calculate quantitive values for energy consumption, solid waste emission, air pollution index, water pollution index, global warming potential, weighted resource use. Then, thirty performance indicators, which were selected from the review of existing evaluation models has been grouped under four building life cycle stages, site selection, construction, operation, and demolition. The weights of each category and indicator has been calculated, and converted into a credit score. Then, the performance grades are divided into five levels, (excellent, good, average, below average and poor) and evaluation criteria are suggested based on statutory performance value.

    Designing a Driver Environment for Rigid Inflatable Boats Using a User-Centred Design Approach
    (University of Buckingham Press, 2022) Erkarslan, Özlem; Aşıcı, Burçin
    Herein, the importance of design methods for a company’s competence in the commercial world and the importance of integrating design into the product development process in the initial stages are discussed. Notably, driver environments on current boats are not ergonomically designed. Hence, this study aimed at designing a new driver environment with improved ergonomics and user experience that is aesthetically compelling to the market. This study is based on a user-centred design approach, which implies that all team members participate throughout the product development process to create design value for users by crafting innovative solutions that satisfy their requirements. Consequently, a new console, seating unit, and hardtop design that consider the importance of ergonomics, user experience, and manufacturability are developed. These elements are not only integrated in a user-friendly manner but also provide improved maintainability and productibility. © 2022: The Royal Institution of Naval Architects.

    Using Augmented Reality (AR) in Vocational Education Programs to Teach Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)
    (The Design and Technology Association, 2021) Hülagü, R.; Erkarslan, Ö.
    The aim of this research is to design a system that will raise awareness among vocational education students about occupational health and safety and the integration of Augmented Reality (AR) systems into the application/concept. Simply, projected on the work force surface, the AR system warns the students as they perform actions that pose a risk, need caution and may result in accidents. Therefore, by repetitive warnings, students learn the faultiness of actions in a faster pace and develop and insightful awareness. The research involves a literature review and two experiments studies in Çınarlı Vocational and Technical High School (CVHS) with high school and Dokuz Eylül University Mechanical Engineering (DEU ME) students. A system is designed according to the findings from these studies. As a result, students learnt to be more cautious, and the number of mistakes they make decreased. This will result in decrease in the number of occupational accidents, deaths and financial loss. The project presents an innovative method applicable both to the industry and the training a qualified work force. © 2021, The Design and Technology Association. All rights reserved.

    The Construction of Turkish Modern Architecture in Architectural History Writing
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2003) Boyacıoğlu, Bilgen; Erkarslan, Özlem
    This study concentrates on architectural historiography, which functions as an independent medium of activity and production within the discipline of architecture and affects architectural practice directly or indirectly. Historiography, which has been handled as one of the realms of discourse production, has been evaluated in terms of the formation of conditions in the framework of this study. Besides restrictions that stem from discourse's own structure, the compelling factors, which are caused by these formative conditions, have been examined, and extant methods to overcome these problems have been discussed in the realm of architectural historiography. In this framework, this study claims that history writing of architecture has to be handled in terms of its own epistemology in order to attain efficacy. The study aims at evaluating the historiography of Turkish modern architecture in the frame of the phenomenon of an emergent discourse as the indicator of the nation-state ideology and its exclusions.Within the scope of the study, the historiography of Turkish modern architecture has been evaluated critically, and different conceptions of modernity have been interrogated. The concept of modernity, which is a self-generating social process that started in the Ottoman Empire, and the concept of modernity, which was produced by nation-state ideology and based on the physical indicators of the process of Western modernization, have been comparatively evaluated in terms of how they handled the realm of architectural historiography. The study argues critically that one of the two different architectural practices, which were developed the different conceptions of modernity, found focus on in architectural historiography. Thus the other was excluded.As a result of this evaluation, the study proposes that a different architectural historiographic method, which includes what was so far been the excluded, has to be developed.Keywords: historiography, architectural historiography, modernism, nation-state, historiography of Turkish modern architecture.

    A Comparative Study on the Works of German Expatriate Architects in Their Home-Land and in Turkey During the Period of 1927-1950
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Pöğün Zander, Yüksel; Erkarslan, Özlem
    This thesis studies the professional activities of the German architects in the first half of the 20th Century who have worked as expatriate architects in the newly founded Turkish Republic before and after their arrival in Turkey. The aim of the thesis is to elucidate the effects and interactions of environmental and personal factors which impacted the architectural approaches of the German architects in the Turkish context. Due to the extensive emigration movement from Germany caused by the National Socialist Government after 1933, Mid-European Modern Architecture has detached from its original context and spread throughout the world. The relocation of experienced architects to a new geographical setting, in this case the newly founded Turkish Republic, has provided means for novel experiences and applications. How these architects diversified and progressed under the prevailing multidimensional conditions have been discussed in the light of the unique opportunities and restrictions specific to the Turkish context. The first chapter of the thesis is introductory; the second chapter depicts the architectural milieu in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century and the activities of the German architects who have later come to Turkey. The third and fourth chapters investigate the professional careers of the German architects with emphasis given to the evolution observed in their architectural approaches specifically in the reformist attitudes they introduced to education, and in their architectural designs for the Turkish context. The fifth chapter is the conclusion. Keywords: Exile German Architects, Architecture in Turkey in the Early Republican Period, Bruno Taut, Paul Bonatz, Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky, Hans Poelzig, Wilhelm Schütte, Martin Elsaesser, Robert Vorhölzer

    Colour Design of Exterior Surfaces as an Expression of Architectural Thought
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2001) Kaynak Bayık, Ahenk; Erkarslan, Özlem
    Based on the postulation of the architectural end products communicate with the context by means of their exterior surfaces, this study claims that colour as a design concept is one of the main elements in expressing the architectural thought through out the products' surfaces. Being in a universe where human beings identify the three dimensionality with their perceptions, surface becomes one of the main concepts in identifying and communicating with the environment which they live in. The identification and communication of an object exposes itself through the way which it have been created. This exposition can be the structural and physical properties of the object where as it can be a semantic reflection of its designers' thoughts and personal expressions. The architect utilises the surfaces of the architectural end-products as a canvas in order to reflect their architectural thoughts. However, apart from the other objects, architects' canvases is three dimensional and they are two sided as inner and exterior surfaces. The architectural product's inner surface can be considered as the bordering surface of the designed space. On the other hand, the exterior surface should be considered as the inner skin of the environment.Within this thesis the components which visualises the thoughts of the designer, as the exterior facades of the building becomes the surfaces of environmental borders, these components will be studied as a part of this design process. Since colour is an important concept of the design process, it will be emphasised within its exterior surface application and its design notions. Especially, in the developing countries colour concept usually comes to the fore just as an esthetical component on the surfaces of the architectural products and can not go further than being a dye which is chosen during the last stage of the construction process. In these circumstances, colour as a surface property becomes one of the main reasons of the visual decay in the cityscapes. In this respect, this thesis does not only point out that colour is one of the main components of the design process but also indicates that colour is an inherent part of the expression of the architectural thought on the exterior surfaces of the architectural design objects which should be considered in relating with the characteristics of the environment. Keywords: Surface, Architectural Surface, Exterior Surface, Environmental Skin, Colour, Colour Perception, Functional Colour, Surface Colour, Colour in Architecture.

    A Critical View of Sustainable Architecture in Turkey: a Proposal for the Municipality of Seyrek
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2003) Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Erkarslan, Özlem
    This dissertation aims at developing a sustainable design process prioritizing locality in social, cultural, ecological, political, economic, technological, legalistic,and architectural terms. To this end, it aims first of all at developing an approach for elimination of misconceptions.primarily informed by technological, morphological and numerical indicators.about what constitutes the concept of sustainability in architectural practice today and therefore starts out from a critical historical overview of approaches and practices for sustainability in the world and in Turkey. The thesis undertakes the critique of sterile projects in sterile environments and calibrates the replicable and exemplary aspects of international and national sustainable design practices so as to introduce, promote and guide realistic, practicable, and case-specific sustainable architectural solutions. The specific focus in both the critical evaluation of extant sustainable practices abroad and the proposed process for the municipality of Seyrek in Menemen, Izmir, Turkey, is the distinction between the assets and needs of industrialized northern geographies and southern geographies which are in the process of industrialization and which are frequently misguided by economic exigencies imposed by the industrialized north. As a village located in an Important Bird Area, in the vicinity of a Ramsar Site and on the edge of a First-Degree Natural Conservation Area, the case area in question provides a trenchant example for the study of the meaning of sustainability in a southern socio-politico-economic zone and a challenge for the architectural designer. Seyrek is a mirror of global as well as local problems today. It is located in the middle of Gediz Delta, the large agricultural land as well, and on the edge of several specialized industrial districts of the urban sprawl of Izmir.Placing the analysis of the case area in the context of the wider framework of international policy, the thesis proceeds to propose specific design tools for a sustainable housing development project in a crucial typical new residential segment of the semi-rural settlement of Seyrek.
