The ultimate aim of any creative activity is building… architects, sculptors, painters, we all must become craftsmen again… no essential difference exists between the artist and the craftsman, the artist is a craftsman of heightened awareness… but the basis of craftsmanship is indispensable to all artists. It is the prime source of all creative work", Walter Gropius, from Bauhaus Manifesto of Foundation/Basic Course, 1919."Basic Design", also known as "Foundation Courses" or "Enseignement Pre´liminaire", formed the basis of the pedagogy of the classical schools of design and architecture. That is, the "Vhutemas", the "Bauhaus", the "Chicago Bauhaus", and the "Ulm School" (Hochschule Fur Gestaltung). This teaching approach, which has undergone multiple changes since the 1920s, lost much of its importance from the 1960s onwards, and at times even disappeared from educational programs in Germany. However, the past 20 years or so have witnessed a rebirth of "Basic Design Education" through many debates and pedagogical propositions (Boucharenc, 2006). In the light of this truth, it can be said that, the basic design has the same importance at all disciplines, although it differentiates on applications in the educations, and this importance is being increased day by day. In the context of this research, especially it will be focused on the basic design education in art and architecture and this concept will be related with these disciplines. The aim of this research is to put forward the right definitions for basic design concept and to evaluate it with relating its own elements and principles, if the design steps are built with a concept, it will be able to see the differences in its properties and right thought, in producing an idea and the effect of composing a concept on defining design power.
The art and architecture relationship is discussed within the context of historical process since the first mankind product. Moreover, the art and architecture are mentioned as the most important components through the history of civilisation. Art is a diverse range of human activities and the products of those activities; which depend on the creation of images or objects in fields including painting, sculpture, photography, and other visual media and also architecture. Each artwork is the product of its artist's creativity. The artist forms his artwork through his lifetime experiences in a subjective way by the help of artistic expression, which is as same as for an architect and his architectural work. The art of painting as an art form is the specific shape, or quality an artistic expression takes, which is as same as for an architectural form, and the methods used through for a painting is nearly as same as the methods that an architect uses for his architecture. In the view of this phenomenon, the paper focuses on the relationship between painting and architecture through basic design education. The common elements and principles in painting and architecture will be held in details with examples, to put forward the importance of relationship between two fields, in the aim of proposing a new teaching/learning strategy for basic design education. In the light of this aim, mainly the "space" concept, which is the most common element for an artistic and architectural work will be exemplified with the course practices produced
This article discusses the theoretical framework and methodology developed for research on comparative urbanism devoted to emerging phenomena in rapidly expanding cities. It focuses on problems related to the right to the city, particularly addressing questions of participation in the production of space. The exploration of progressive social and spatial fragmentation of urban environments concentrates on the peculiar changes occurring in the main nodes of Auckland, the largest polycentric urban area of New Zealand. Primary places of this urban transformation are the shopping malls of latest generation that dominate the newly formed metropolitan centres. The presented methodology aims to interpret the heterotopic spatial introversions of these centres and describe their specific forms of spatial transductions. Its specific analytical methods are designed to provide indications of the emerging transformation of the role of public space in the interpersonal sphere of sociability. This involves the exploration of the agency of new digital media as instruments for the emergence of independent and autonomous recombinant forms in the new urban condition. The methods are combined to analyse and compare conceptions and experiences of physical, social and eidetic spatialities. Their application is expected to provide empirical support to the theoretically hypothesised, strong correlation between the increasing dis-embedding strength of territorial infrastructure and the emergence of networked "representational" recombinations occurring with the latest "malling" form.
ÖzetBu makale, sinema ve mimarlık disiplinlerinin felsefi bir tartışma düzleminde bir arada ele alınmalarının sunabileceği potansiyellerin, bir atölye deneyimi üzerinden örneklenmesini içerir. Atölyeler, geleneksel eğitim müfredatı dışında sağladıkları esneklik ve deneysel ortam ile yeni yaklaşımların özgür bir çerçevede deneyimlenmelerine imkan sunarlar. Makaleye konu olan Sine-Tasarım Atölyesi, Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi bünyesinde gerçekleştirilen "Mimari Tasarım Eğitimi: Bütünleşme 2" konulu Ulusal Sempozyum kapsamında lisans düzeyindeki öğrenicilerle gerçekleştirilmiştir ve benzer atölyeler için bir yöntem önerisi olmasının yanı sıra, yeni bir düşünme biçiminin örneğidir.Atölye kapsamında öğreniciler, sinema-mimarlık ilişkisi hakkında tarihsel bir perspektifle tartışmalar yürütmüş, ardından Christopher Nolan'ın "Inception" filmini izlemişlerdir. Filmde mekan kullanımı aracılığıyla gündeme getirilen kavramları tespit etmiş, bu sunuş biçiminden yola çıkarak mekan kavramını yeniden tanımlamışlardır. Son adımda ise, kendi özgün mekan tanımlarını örnekleyen iki ve üç boyutlu anlatımlarla tasarımlarını gerçekleştirmişlerdir. Atölye sonucunda, sinemanın mimarlık eğitiminin bir parçası olarak soyut düşünme becerisi kazandırmada başarıyla kullanılabilmesinin mümkün olduğu görülmüştür. Bu türden interdisipliner çalışmalar iki alana da katkı sağlarken, her konuyu tekil birimler olarak değil, büyük bir sistemin parçaları olarak ele alan bir düşünce sistemini önermeleri açısından önemlidirler. AbstractThis paper includes an exemplification of the potentials of the combination of two disciplines, cinema and architecture in a philosophical discussion base through a workshop experience. The workshops, providing flexibility and an experimental environment outside the traditional education curriculum, offer an opportunity to experience new approaches in a free framework. Sine-Design Workshop, which is the subject of the article, has been carried out with undergraduate students within the frame of the National Symposium on "Architectural Design Education: Integration 2" organized by Yıldız Technical University and is an example of a new way of thinking as well as being a method proposal for similar workshops.Within the scope of this workshop, the students discussed the cinema-architecture duo with a historical perspective, followed by a screening of Christopher Nolan's "Inception". They identified the concepts raised through the use of space in this film and redefined the concept of space based on this representment. In the last step, they carried out their designs with two and three-dimensional expressions that exemplify their own specific spatial definitions. At the end of the workshop, it has been seen that it is possible to use the cinema successfully to gain abstract thinking skills as a part of architectural education. While such interdisciplinary studies contribute to both areas, they are important in terms of proposing a system of thought that treats each subject as a part of a larger system, not as individual units.
