ARCH202 ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN II
Esmanur Yıldırım / Repersonalization
Main concept word is repersonalization. This project is not just a therapy center, but also a multi-functional area the concept idea was given based on the occupational trauma of defense corps, and the main idea of this project was established to make mock with the military order. From beginning, according to research, I created rhythmic form and spaces. It consists of a glass mass that breaks all linearity passing through 3 concrete masses that look like classical on a grid system that has been changed with its angle. There are functions that support the concept, which can be interpreted as finding yourself with more interpreted innovations, without a complete breaking from the past. Suggestions for spaces in nature, sometimes dark and closed, sometimes completely transparent, have been presented that will help you find yourself again. While this was done, both horizontal and vertical zones were created by captured space. For function part, as seen as in the plans, there are sport center, recreated flexieble therapy area, counseling room, an inclusive kitchen and VR room with its glassbox. In glassbox, there are sound and color therapy with augmented reality.
