Course Objectives The course aims to teach students how to combine technical components of wet spaces with design principles to produce projects. The goal is to familiarize students with teamwork by having them complete projects in groups.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Develop designs by analyzing and synthesizing data obtained from research conducted on student groups within the scope of wet spaces; understand the importance of group work.
  • Express the ideas developed in the design process accurately and effectively through verbal and/or digitally created visual communication techniques.
  • Understand the importance of considering ergonomics, universal and inclusive design principles when developing user-oriented design solutions for wet spaces by internalizing the relationship between human and space.
  • Create designs that enhance spatial comfort and quality of life by considering physical environmental components such as lighting, color, acoustics, air conditioning, and sustainability.
  • Apply design, technical and mechanical developments within the scope of the project.
Course Content The project topic for the semester involves the study of at least two different wet spaces, taking into account principles and standards for their design and application,as well as mechanical limitations. The wet spaces chosen for the project can serve various functions and users and may be located in different areas.The design process begins with research,as is typical for all design problems.
