Anatolian Civilizations museum Impressions

Having connection with neolithic and paleolithic people situation is really interesting for me. When I trip to Anatolian Civilizations Museum, I can easily say that even their materials seems like old age, we can still use them in modern way. For instance there are lots of examples of pitcher and even todays world people use pitcher as a decoration material, like 30-40 years ago, they also use it in real manner. Also their workmanship are seems good. It shows us they also give importance to design.
Museum does not only include paleolithic and neolithic age. We can also see trace about more developed civilizations. But our topic include paleolithic and neolithic age. So lets try to observe their world.
In paleolithic age, little rocks are key element for them. They use stone in lots of different manner. They try to shape the stone and time after time usage of material developed.

Neolithic age is much more different than Paleolithic age. When we look at Çatalhöyük, even there is no streets, they have order and because of their knowledge about using stone they process çatalhöyük's plan into rock. Also there are some drawings about their daily life in here. It is just a kind of saying that we are here. And this it can be accept as starting of architecture.

STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS: KHAN SHATYR

Each structure has its own story. And this is Khan Shatyr's one. For Arch372 lesson we choose a structure and examine its structural details. We find Khan Shatyr as interesting and made research about it. Tension of roof, its durability, materials, technique of construction is quite different from other ones. And here some explanative poster about structure with diagrams.

Sketch Problem

After first pre-jury, new sketch problem assignment take to each group. In there, question is simple: What will be happen to Çukurambar next years/decades. Sketches can be include utopic ideas or it may stand on realistic things. Me and my group can not defend any certain idea. There are both of these things and it is kind of debate about what will happen if there is realistic things happen or what happen with utopic ideas. Here what we reach:

Architectural tour in Ankara (04 assignment)

It was a rainy day… Again noone has no idea what we are doing… This is a kind of principles of being architechture student. Sounds echoing like “its up to you!” in studio.Then we recognized that nothing can be same after this trip… Here comes new assignment. Last friday we take an architectural tour in Ankara and we have to focus light and shadow qualities in Buildings. In poster (which is on the left) you can see old buildings. They may seem like normal structure but when we think that 1920-30s, they are really important and well designed buildings for Ankara. Also there are more photos when i took this trip. I didn't add these pictures to my poster thats why i couldnt find exact texture in these photos.
