Mimari Tasarım Sürecinde Bellek ve Mimesis: Archiprix Projeleri Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme

Abstract

This study has been shaped and developed upon the evaluation of the relationship between memory and mimesis in the context of architectural design practice and aims to gain new perspectives regarding mimesis in architecture through the mimetic partnership established by designers with memory. For this reason, memory, one of the concepts of the study, is evaluated as ‘visual, conceptual and creative memories’ according to the information cycle of design process both in terms of its own internal design and both in the mind of the designer and in the information code it provides. Visual memory; the conceptual memory, which is composed of the universe of infinite constructions in which architectural constructions take place, and which identi- fies the building visuals providing visual data to the designers; traditions, social, cultural facts, human, identity, knowledge, reason, spiritual needs, experiences, habits. Creative memory is; the sensory intelligence that transforms and transforms both visual and conceptual information codes at the point of reproducing is rational mind or mimetic memory. In this context, the study is based on interconnected layers, first of all, in digital networks, the memes of the relevant sources and literature are researched and classified according to their type, quality and meaning. Afterwards, an evaluation was made on the International Archiprix Projects, which gained existence with the participation of students from different cultures and geographies, with the prediction that focusing on buildings that can create a design partnership instead of individual architectural structures will provide a clearer reading of the theoretical approach dominating the study.
