MİMARİ TASARIMDA BİLGİNİN KAVRAMSAL ROLÜNÜN ÇOK KATMANLI OLARAK İNCELENMESİ

The architectural design process embodies many uncertainties from the very first stage. Therefore, various studies have been conducted in different contexts. Within the scope of this study, it is aimed to examine the role of knowledge in the architectural design process in the context of conceptualization. In this context, the role of conceptualization in the architectural design process is mentioned in the context of knowledge. The act of design starts with the acquisition of knowledge. This knowledge is internalized when the acquired knowledge is interpreted and shaped according to the design problem. The information that is interpreted and used affects both the schemes produced in the first stage of design and the final product produced in line with the schemes. The acquired information is processed by making choices and associated with each other. After this process, which is called the information processing stage, new information is obtained by transforming the information. Concepts are produced by associating the information acquired in the design process and pre-existing information. Concepts are important in terms of expressing thoughts and diversifying ideas. Conceptualization continues from the first stage of design until the final product is produced. As a result, architectural design, conceptual process and information constitute three layers that are integrated with each other at every stage. This multi-layered system consists of a dynamic and interactive structure. In this study, the ways in which information is handled in the architectural design process and its role in the conceptual process are discussed in order to address the place and importance of the subject in design education.
