Samenvatting

Architectural models, either physical or digital have always been significant for
architectural design education, therefore further research and various experiments have to be done to better understand their role. The research, conducted under the scope of architectural design studios in TOBB ETU, tries to use the studio space as a foundation for architectural model in order to question urban conditions. The threshold between architecture and landscape architecture is important for the studio to understand the blurred boundaries
in the city. Architecture as an object cannot be considered detached from its surroundings. In accordance with this understanding while trying to evaluate the urban conditions, the studio tries to reconstruct these cases in the studio space. Starting from the decision on site boundaries to the final presentation each step becomes a piece of the architectural model.
Within the scope of this studio, it is aimed to investigate and explore new ways and media of perceiving and reflecting the site with all its layers and simultaneously proposing new urban strategies. While doing that, instead of suggesting only a building with a predetermined program, this studio tries to speculate on the site by using drawings, digital and physical models, photographs, collages, the space and their composition. Throughout the semester the studio space is transformed by the students and becomes a model of the site which allows to reconstruct the site with new strategies where the designer becomes a part of it and plays a crucial role. The process itself and the final representation provide a basis for reconsidering the meaning of the architectural models.
