Technology is employed in the fields of architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) for characteristics like producing visual representations and offering assistance during the building phase. Both users and creators of these tools are able to immediately take advantage of the technology's potential as well as create a variety of workarounds...

Nowadays, with the increasing digitalization and the increase in digital fabrication production technologies, the dialogue between the digital and physical world is accelerating and strengthening. The effects of digital fabrication, which is the transition of design with computational design tools in the digital environment to production with 3D pr...

In the 21st century, it can be argued that measurement is considered as the basis of all experimental and theoretical researches including human sciences such as sociology and psychology and natural sciences both physical and life sciences, whereas design process can be considered both in the field of human sciences and natural sciences due to its...

Mimari tasarım sürecinde kullanılan temsil araçları, üretilen tasarımların başkalarına iletilmesini sağlamanın yanı sıra, tasarımcılar için tasarımlarıyla iletişim kurmalarını sağlayan bir dili tanımlamaktadır. Bu anlamda, tasarımcı ve nesne arasındaki iletişim, problem ve çözüm arasında gidip gelen ve genişleyen bir sarmalı andırmaktadır. Problem,...

This study sheds light on a holistic understanding of muqarnas with its historical, philosophical and conceptual backgrounds on one hand and formal, structural and algorithmic principles on the other hand. The vault-like Islamic architectural element, muqarnas, is generally considered to be a non-structural decorative element. Various compositional...

Questioning new modes of spatiality in design through evolutionary approaches is becoming more significant than ever. Related to the very common use of contemporary evolutionary methodologies, metaphorical relations coming out between design thinking and different structures (open and closed) and also new forms of space in architectural design are...

Interpreting is rarely discussed in the context of basic design, which is mostly deemed as an overly rationalized teaching of the fundamentals of designing. This paper sheds light on the relation of designing and interpreting based on design protocols where novice architectural design students are asked to create basic organizations and write about...

Evolution of/in artificial systems has been discussed in many fields such as computer science, architecture, natural and social sciences over the last fifty years. Evolutionary computation which takes its roots in computation and biology has a potential to enrich ways of thinking in architecture. This paper focuses mainly on the methodology of how...

Evolutionary design methodologies generally aim to present new form-finding processes, where nature-based approaches are used, such as self-organization, genetic algorithms etc. This paper aims to present a new architectural design approach that focuses on integrating these different evolutionary methods in an emergent process. The main goal is to...
