| Course Objectives: | This course develops a critical understanding of the built environment by exploring the evolution of spatial design from Çatalhöyük to the Renaissance, emphasizing both Western and Eastern contexts. Students will identify key architectural styles and interior design elements from different historical periods, situating them within their social, cultural, and urban settings. Through case studies and theoretical frameworks, the course examines the relationship between architecture, culture, and design philosophies across diverse geographies. By synthesizing historical and cultural insights, students will create comparative analyses of different design approaches. Lectures, readings, discussions, and review sessions support these objectives. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; • Understand the relationship between space, history, and culture in architectural contexts. • Apply key terminology relevant to art and architectural history. • Classify and compare architectural structures across different cultures, periods, and design approaches. • Analyze historical built environments and interiors about their urban, social, and cultural contexts. • Evaluate the connections between past and present architectural traditions, including indigenous and monumental practices, as well as Western and non-Western perspectives. |
| This course provides a comprehensive historical overview of architectural and spatial design across various geographies, emphasizing the influence of culture, social and political structures, economic conditions, art, and technological advancements on the evolution of design. Through a theoretical lens, the course explores key milestones in the history of design, offering insights into how original definitions and concepts of design have developed over time. Students will critically engage with these themes by evaluating, illustrating, and contextualizing historical design practices through discussions and assignments. The course encourages students to analyze how diverse factors shaped architectural and interior design, fostering a deeper appreciation for the historical roots of contemporary design concepts. Finally, the course prepares students for the INT2014 course studio through methods such as lectures, individual studies, readings, discussions, technology enhanced learning, and case studies. |
