ARCH 101 BASICS OF DESIGN
Final Jury Riff
In our final project, we were tasked with designing a model consisting of at least 11 units and 3 groups, using 3 units we previously created along with their variations. Afterwards, we prepared a poster and an animation for the model.

METU Visit
During our visit to METU, our goal was to find and display the hinge thresholds in different departments of the university. We visited the Faculty of Physics, the library, and the Faculty of Architecture.

Assignment05-3
In this assignment, we were asked to create 3 units and then create an organization consisting of 11 units with variations of these 3 units.

As02 Architectural Imagery
In this assignment, we are required to photograph 7 of the locations designated for us and then select 2 of them to create postcards.

Assignment06
This was our first experience with Rhino. We were asked to create our chair using some specific commands in Rhino. After drawing the chair, we used the Make2D command to generate its top, front, and side views.

Assignment10
We were asked to rotate the given geometric configuration, including its plan, section, and side view, by 45 degrees and produce an axonometric section.
MIDTERM-1
ARCH 111 ARCHITECTURAL COMMUNICATION TECHNIQUES
In the midterm, we were asked to draw the top, front, and side views of a given image without talking to each other for about 3 and a half to 4 hours.

MIDTERM-2
In this midterm exam, we were asked to create an axonometric drawing from the provided plan images and complete the missing section within 3-4 hours.

Regulating Lines
Regulating lines are the lines that control and organize the structure, boundaries, and harmony of the works created by architects. Since this concept is essential from the very beginning of architecture and its works, it holds a significant place in architecture. Just as the notes in music have a certain order and harmony, regulating lines ensure that the elements of a work are in harmony and coordination with each other, thus enhancing the visual appeal and quality of the design.

Ornament and Crime
Adolf Loos’s Ornament and Crime examines ornamentation not just as an aesthetic issue but as a societal problem. According to Loos, ornament is a remnant of primitive habits, and modern individuals should abandon it. He argues that ornamentation leads to unnecessary waste of labor and materials, whereas simple and functional designs possess timeless value. With these ideas, Loos became a pioneer of an architectural approach that emphasizes simplicity and functionality. Ornament and Crime is a text that powerfully asserts the irrelevance of ornamentation in the modern world.

Modulor
In this assignment, we were asked to abstract our bodies using different postures. We drew 15 different postures and arranged them in a single row using Photoshop.
ARCH 102 INTRODUCTION TO ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
Assignment05-3
In this assignment, we worked in pairs to create a 3D construct based on at least five bodily activities. Using 3 cm thick styrofoam layers, we carved and assembled spaces for movements like climbing, crouching, and jumping. The layers were arranged vertically, not necessarily parallel to the ground, to reflect different bodily experiences. The final model was 30x30x60 cm in size.

Trip to Konya
We went on a trip to the Sille district of Konya, where we explored its caves,Sille primary school,Aya Eleni church and dam. We conducted site analyses and mapping studies.

Preliminary Jury 1
For this assignment, we prepared a 1/100 physical model and an A2-sized poster (both printed and digital, 1–2 sheets). The poster included a 1/2000 key plan showing the site we focused on, fieldnotes with extra map layers and analyses based on our site selection, and diagrams/sketches explaining our main strategy for engaging with the site. We also added a 1/200 top view, which could be slightly rotated depending on the orientation, but the North was always placed at the top of the page with a proper North arrow. Finally, we included one 1/200 section and one elevation, or two sections.

M1-3+4
In this assignment, we were given the House with One Wall by Christian Kerez. First, we drew the building in AutoCAD, and then we refined and edited the drawings in Illustrator.

M1-5
In this assignment, we modeled the given house at 1/200 scale and selected one staircase to model at 1/100 scale. We used 2 mm modeling cardboard for the house model.

M1-7
In this assignment, we edited the section drawings of the given houses and turned them into collages. We paid attention to the opacity of people and trees, and made visual adjustments on the images.

M1-8
In this assignment, we drew a two-point perspective of the M1 project, either from the outside or from a selected interior point. We used plan, section, and elevation drawings as references and marked the picture plane (PP) on each. All reference drawings, vanishing points, and construction lines remained visible in the final. The drawing could be done by hand or in AutoCAD, but the process had to follow hand-drawing principles.
ARCHITECTURAL PRESENTATION AND MARSHMALLOW CHALLENGE AT AÇI COLLEGE.
We (4 architecture and 1 interior architecture students) visited Açı College in Yenimahalle, Ankara to represent our school and promote architecture. We gave a presentation to the students, had conversations with them, and later asked them to build the tallest tower they could using a limited number of sticks and marshmallows.
