Course Objectives:	This course is concerned with the way people experience space-built or un-built, real or imaginary, two dimensional or three dimensional. Theories of space is introduced exposing conceptions in a variety of visual design media. Space is an integral part of communication and is a seamless connection to visual expression. The emphasis is on the discovery of space while exercising visual skills in depicting and analyzing cultures in the world of cities.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Develop an understanding of different kinds of space.
2) Exhibit critical thinking skills for the city space (of Istanbul )
3) Expose cultural construction of space ( in Istanbul)
4) Analyse the visual aspects of city space in comparison to other cultures
5) Experience to effectively communicate an idea through visual expression.
6) Exercise and demonstrate visual skills working with variety of media.
7) Display ability to profile audiences for successful presentation techniques

Course Content

The students will be introduced to different uses of space in different mediums, with the aid of presentations. While the course aims to establish the foundation of space and use of it, students are directed to prepare a final presentation or product which is strongly related to concept of space.
