With the beginning of Covid-19 pandemic, the public spaces that we normally take our access granted, started to get restricted according to the rules & regulations of “New Normal”, in this particular discussion applicability of social distance in the space. So, the offered model proposes, a risk evaluation for the closed public spaces that are unavoidable in terms of sustaining essential needs, for a resilient urban life. By displaying the relation between the perception of the space configuration and the user movement inside the space with the help of theory of Space Syntax and mass movement simulation tools.

In this study, a model that can be resilient in ecological and social terms is proposed. It is suggested that, in a future scenario where glaciers melt, and waters rise, climate refugees would choose a nomadic life instead of searching for new settlements. As a result of global warming, harsh conditions would appear through the changing environmental conditions over time. In order to adapt these conditions a mobile modular architecture system that would host climate refugees is designed.

The study focusses on a modular shell design that can be locked with its own weight. An algorithm has been developed for the design of the shell and its modules, and as a case study, the development of a shell that will protect habitats in the Martian environment from solar radiation and modules that can be produced from local materials are discussed. The other performances expected from the design are that the modules can be produced with 3D printing technologies, the shell can grow and shrink, and the modules damaged in the shell are interchangeable.

Children need to interact with their environment in order to ensure their mental and physical development. Since the beginning of 2020, the social resilience of children who continue their distance education and cannot contact their peers in the physical environment is at risk. The aim of the project is to create a new playscape that allows sustainable interaction between children under pandemic conditions by considering social distance rules.

The “Growing Urban Furniture” project is a project that envisages the growth starting from predetermined points to grow according to environmental factors and turn into a sitting element. In the experimental study, a form was formed to surround the bodies of the trees and when it reached the desired height, the growth stopped. It was predicted that the form formed in this way would be naturally resilient.

The aim of this project is to propose a model to be used in determining the positions of the cargo lockers. The proposed model is created by manipulating probability functions in pedestrian simulation with the help of housing data. In the first phase of the project, human density is foreseen by using housing data in the city. Using the predicted density information, the probability functions of the routes in pedestrian simulation are determined. The routes to be used in pedestrian simulation were determined as transportation station and between residences and the density information obtained as a result of the simulation was transferred to a gridal heat map. The locations of the cargo lockers are determined with the density heat map.

This study aims to discuss resilience within the framework of material and structure. Within the scope of the project, a timber pavilion structure is designed with double curved glulam beams and analyzed. This project addresses the concept of architectural resilience by evaluating the material, structural properties of a pavilion s and aims to contribute to existing studies with a holistic approach with steps from design to evaluation.

This study is a research that solves the concept of durability with the thoughts and methods of computational design over the kinetic system and origami. It is aimed to increase the durability of the Bursa Uzun Çarşı top cover by addressing the rainwater collection and sun bathing problems in terms of user comfort. It is considered as a design consideration under the influence of interpretation of flexibility and recoverability qualities.

The many distinguishing features of the banana petiole is a cleverly integrated design combination that gives it the ability to reverse both hard and deform during storms. Its U-shaped outer shell with isolated longitudinal reinforcement makes it light but rigid in bending, while the ventral curvature of the petiole wraps around the leaf to help support it. The shell cover designed with inspiration from the petiole anatomy offered us a sustainable, flexible and highly resistant structure.
