Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

This course aims to experience the application of site-specific conceptual analyzes discovered in contemporary art history practices to the field of interior design. During the course, students experience the practice of installation that emerged with conceptual art, the concept of relational aesthetics that developed with performance art, and the application of space design, experience production and installation techniques in a conceptual framework through the gentrification practices of the postmodern city.

Course Content:

1- Recognizing and thinking about concepts
2- Ability to apply conceptual thinking to concrete designs and mechanisms
3- To be able to observe the relations of society and space and to define the experience
4- To be able to analyze the function of the space through concepts
5- Generating original designs by using artistic and conceptual practices in interior design

1 - Knowledge
Theoretical - Conceptual
1) In this course, it is aimed to meet the students and the teacher and to transfer the course contents, course purpose and course process to the students in a transparent way.
2) In this course, we will examine how art has used space from the beginning of the 20th century to the present, through major art movements, and observe the effects and contributions of contemporary art to today's space design. At the end of this course, we will discuss how we can benefit from this artistic research in contemporary space design.
3) In this course, we will touch on what the concept is and how it is used, and we will discuss the methods, benefits and possible benefits of conceptual thinking.

Lesson Plan

Week	Subject	Related Preparation
1)	In this course, it is aimed to meet the students and the teacher and to transfer the course contents, course purpose and course process to the students in a transparent way.	None
2)	In this course, we will examine how art has used space from the beginning of the 20th century to the present, through major art movements, and observe the effects and contributions of contemporary art to today's space design. At the end of this course, we will discuss how we can benefit from this artistic research in contemporary space design.	None
3)	In this course, we will touch on what the concept is and how it is used, and we will discuss the methods, benefits and possible benefits of conceptual thinking.	None
4)	In this lesson, we will get to know the design triangle used in conceptual production. In the conceptual production triangle, which is divided into function - goal - interpretation (twist), we will discuss how original experiences can be created through the conceptualization of different facts and needs, or how plain or simple designs can be customized with conceptual thinking.	None
5)	In this course, we will make a conceptual analysis of an existing space (a business, public space, etc.) that students will choose, using the knowledge of conceptual production and design triangle. The aim of this course is to make an analysis that will reveal the production system and conceptual roots of a ready-made space and to solve the logic used in the first design of the space.	None
6)	In this course, students will visit the interior of a space they use or are interested in, and will take pictures of it, and they will begin to prepare a conceptual design project for a project they will make in this space. The aim of this course is to produce a holistic and harmonious design based on a targeted function, a specific purpose and a conceptually based interpretation over an existing space.	None
7)	In this course, the design project files presented by the students will be collected and evaluated in the form of a midterm exam.	None
8)	In this course, students will get acquainted with Nicolas Bourrioud's concept of relational aesthetics and gain information about social projects and the use of space through the production of experience. The aim of this course is to enable students to transition from space design for business or private service to a design logic specific to public space and social functions in their production.	None
9)	This course is to inform students about the concept of gentrification, which is also mentioned by relational aesthetics and applied by municipalities and local authorities. The aim of this course is to show students how the perception of spaces and public spaces can be changed through gentrification and how projects can be created on behalf of human relations and social functions.	None
10)	In this course, projects using the concepts of relational aesthetics and gentrification will be introduced. The aim of this course is to show students how socially based projects specific to cities and neighborhoods are produced, how we can use the audience and the participant in the production of experience, and how we can transform living spaces conceptually.	None
11)	In this course, we will explain how a project similar to the conceptually based and socially functional public projects expressed in previous lectures can be shaped by students. As a first step, research techniques will be demonstrated in which students will be able to recognize their own living spaces and identify the concepts, functions and relationships on which the project will be based.	None
12)	In this course, the history, social components, conceptual framework and possible experience opportunities of a chosen public space will be analyzed. The aim of this course is to determine the questions that students need to answer for the research they will do on behalf of their own projects and the conceptual needs of the design triangle they will form afterwards.	None
13)	In this course, students will share the project texts they have prepared and will learn from their instructors the actions, deficiencies and corrections they should take before the final submission. The aim of this course is to inform students about the project file and text they will prepare and to support them to produce the best possible.	None
14)	In this course, students will submit their project files within the final exam.	None
15)	final examination	None
16)	final examination	None
