Methodological trial in sustainable architecture: Parasitic architecture Kaprol, T. As an approach of design in sustainable architecture, "Parasitic Architecture" presents an opportunity to the necessary spatial organization in daily life as a method to design the latest. The "Parasitic Architecture" method defined in the study is applied within the Architectural Design 1 class of Architecture Department in the 2018-2019 fall semester in Tekirdağ Namik Kemal University, Faculty of Fine Arts. Through the architectural project that covered this semester, the architect candidates were required to examine the Tekirdağ urban settings after the scope of the project was explained. Each student was required to study on three different places of the city. Upon investigating the spatial voids in the structured urban environment, we have reached spatial voids which can be structured on the urban wall. The aim was to design the silent façades and voids on the third dimension of the space the building occupies, so that they serve the function of the building it will dwell on. After determining the area the design will occupy on the urban wall, the owners of the building who will accommodate the parasitic architecture were contacted, and the architectural program of the outbuilding was made according to the users' needs. Throughout the study, the architect candidates were presented with the idea of Mutualism or symbiotic existence which defines the mutual living in biology, amensalism, and commensalism concepts as well as the nature originated textures that are used in art. The aim of the study and the design covers both the urban location the new design will occupy and environment relationship, and simplification of human life as well as reaching aesthetic maturity. Schools of architecture and art were introduced in the class for aesthetic maturity as the key terms of the study. Parasitic Architecture approach was elaborated on. Promoting the depth of knowledge the architecture candidate has for the new design, the study provides for the acquired knowledge to support the design of the candidates within the context of sustainability. The result of the study highlights the design abilities which the architect candidate obtained. © Peter Lang AG 2020.

Cultural significance of historic urban landscapes and evaluation of conservation problems: Case study of Amasya-Hatuniye quarter Büyükbayraktar, Nehar; Aktaş, N. K. Historic environments with cultural, social, economic, and artistic traces bear the characteristics of a bridge from the past to the future. Historic urban areas, cities, towns, and historic centers are not only historic documents, but they also carry the traces of traditional urban cultures. However, the historic environments may face certain physical problems such as deterioration overtime, aging, collapsing, etc., due to natural disasters, along with the changes in the social, political, technological, and economical structure. For this reason, it is of vital importance to draw up plans and designs oriented at conservationsustentation where the public participation is ensured within the process and where the historic environment is addressed as a whole. © Peter Lang AG 2020.

Learning through place: Place-based design and education approaches in architectural design studio Yeler, Gülcan Minsolmaz In a materialist and homogenized world that has been modernizing with the effect of globalization, unique and peculiar features of a place are being destroyed because of unsustainable development and wrong practice. Therefore, the "place" that is presented as an ideational model in architectural space and the "context" place introduces to the design have already lost their validity. For this reason, in order to create a locally and globally healthy and sustainable future, it is necessary to develop a new approach that starts in the education phase. In this context, the study focuses on "place-based design and education" approaches, which are developed for Architecture Department students of Kirklareli University, Faculty of Architecture to experience and understand in a versatile way and create a better design that would suit the place better, in an early phase of their education. Furthermore, the study also evaluates the effects of the mentioned approaches on students' awareness level and design process through the verbal feedback of students. © Peter Lang AG 2020.

Urban development zones as a risk factor in sustainable urban planning process: An evaluation for Balikesir-Turkey Sınmaz, Serkan; Erbey, S.; Özdemir, A. The effects of climate change are being felt more and the impact of cities is increasing in this process. Cities hosting more than half of the world's population are both offenders and victims of climate change. Therefore, cities have a critical importance in terms of fighting against climate change. In this process, in addition to economic and social issues such as consumption consciousness, mode of production, adaptation with nature, responsibility of future generations, etc., the physical planning process of cities has indirectly great impacts. Codes of development zones identified in the macro plans, in particular, may lead the cities in the future construction process in terms of potential energy consumption and carbon emissions. The energy consumption process of cities can be discussed under four subheadings such as embodied energy, operational energy, transportation energy, and maintenance energy. In this case, the potential burden of embodied energy and transportation energy will be imposed as soon as the development zones in the plans are coded. At this point, the size, location, design, and implementation staging of development zones are of importance. In this study, subject is addressed under planning legislation and practices of Turkey and is evaluated with the example of the city of Balikesir. In the study, energy consumption in urban areas, the concept of development zone, and site selection are discussed within the theoretical framework primarily. Then, the city of Balikesir was analyzed and the development zones coded in the upper scale plans were evaluated. © Peter Lang AG 2020.
