Course Objectives The course aims to provide interior design solutions that address organization and circulation connections while also emphasizing corporate identity. It aims to translate designs that are suitable for user characteristics and space functions into spatial language. It addresses the relationships in space design with multiple functions by considering the perception of space and aesthetic values. The course aims to analyze and plan the construction details, user needs, spatial organization, and technical requirements that are essential to space design by considering the interior design with all its requirements and qualities. It evaluates the relations between the interior and exterior, ergonomic criteria, and spatial comfort requirements, and offers design solutions that meet these criteria. The course aims to teach project design and management, particularly in designing spaces with construction details in line with design decisions.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Solve spatial relationships for various functions and requirements.
  • Design a project by developing design language decisions in line with corporate identity.
  • Design interior spaces and the immediate environment by considering functional, ergonomic, psychological and physical requirements.
  • Solve the construction details required by the project using various architectural scales.
  • Demonstrate the design decisions using detailed technical drawings and effective presentation methods.
Course Content Research is conducted to address the design problem and create a requirement program and spatial organization. A design language is developed. Detail solutions are determined by different scale requirements. The design problem is resolved by considering lighting, thermal comfort, acoustics, ergonomics and material selection.
