In-between spaces are interpreted in multiple contexts, scales and considered both as a material and an immaterial space within the scope of this study. The extent of the research is limited to the METU Faculty of Architecture Building Complex; yet, the outputs of the work are beyond this restricted area. The concept of in-between spaces is re-defined with its potential to become a theoretical tool for the analysis of the existing and future architecture in relation to its discourse, object and various subjects. The tryptic method of Peter Eisenman, which aims to “blur” the architectural object and to carry it beyond the limits of traditional architecture, is adopted for the classification and the re-interpretation of in-between spaces. The representation medium is photography which has a further role as an analytical research tool. Through the effort of a concrete visualization of a rather abstract concept of in-between spaces, with the “realistic” tool of photography, the thesis itself also stands between materiality and immateriality.

Perspective for the Reproduction of Architectural Space: ARCH524 as a Pretext Kapusuz, Bilge Beril; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2012) Discovery of the linear perspective of the Renaissance is momentous in terms of the appearance of a new “way of seeing” that is central to the “subject” and emergence of a “subjective” “way of representing” the world. With the assumption that “perspective” is a cultural constituent of the “Renaissance paradigm” that generates the representational notions of art and architecture, perspective is considered as a “convention” and a “mode of representation” that has been influential until the “paradigm shifts” i...
Relief-spaces: trans-positions in display environments Sarıca, Sezin; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2019) The aim of this study is to redefine the relationship between the exhibition space and the object on display. With the recognition that architecture of exhibition space has been a renowned problematic in the architectural discourse, this study specifically focuses on the spatial integrity of both the container, the exhibition space, and the content, the object on display. The inquiry is into the possibility of using the visual field of artistic production, “relief”, as a decoder, in order to be able to defi...
A perceptual shape descriptor Arica, N; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2002-08-15) In this study, we present the two dimensional object silhouette by a one dimensional descriptor, which,preserves the perceptual structure of its shape. The proposed descriptor is based on the moments of the angles between the bearings of a point on the boundary, in a set of neighborhood systems. At each point on the boundary, the angle between a pair of bearings is calculated to extract the topological information of the boundary in a given locality. The proposed method does not use any-heuristic rule or em...
‘‘Form’’ and ‘‘space’’ in Roman domestic architecture: the architectural language of the Atrium house Şeker Ilgın, Ayşegül; Özgenel, Lale; Department of History of Architecture (2008) This study investigates two significant components of architectural design, ‘‘form’’ and ‘‘space’’ and the basic design elements and principles used in their creation in the context of Roman domestic architecture. It more specifically examines how, by which means and for which purposes certain form and space defining tools such as the column, wall, floor, ceiling and opening with their architectural equivalents as the point, line, plane and volume were used in the atrium houses exemplified in Pompeii in Ita...
Map-making as a walking-based spatial practice in architecture Özcivanoğlu, Sonat; Gürsel Dino, İpek; Department of Architecture (2019) The assumption of this study is that the perception of space is dependent on the particularities of a specific location altering with time-variables and subjective experience. With the epistemological paradigm shift by the twentieth century, the concept of space as a homogeneous three-dimensional quantity which can be divided into repetitive units has been challenged by the heterogeneous conception of space-time generated by the bodies in movement. Considering the temporal and experiential aspects of space,...
