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.
This paper is about the relationship of music and art which are components of the basic design applications over arts. For architectural education, to deal with art as a tool and the experience of benefiting from this tool in the design phase is considered as important. Therefore, the situations of music being used as a tool in solving design problems are exemplified in this study. Pallasma said "In the silence of a Gothic cathedral, we remember the last sound of a Gregorian melody". He emphasized how close the relationship between the sound theme of music and architecture is. Its relationship with sound and architecture in the upper scale and its relationship with music and architecture in the lower scale, similarities, common or differing sides have been emerged as two areas which have been questioned all throughout the history. These similarities, common or differing sides host up almost infinite number of concepts and features in themselves such as rhythm, repetition, body, composer, designer… In this paper, the relationship of music and architecture are discussed in terms of the said similarities, common features and differences. Sample area of this discussion is the basic design course in
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
