    Architectural images and values in banknote design: Turkish Republic E1. Emission Group
    (Gazi University, 2024-12-29) Süyük Makaklı, Elif; Ozar, Betül
    Banknotes are more than just a tool for economic exchange; they also represent the identity and shared ideals of the country they belong to. The elements used in banknote designs are a part of social values rather than aesthetic or visual features. The main design elements are images, color tones, flags, signatures, and various security codes. The designs symbolize the common values shared by societies and also their future goals. From ancient times to the present, banknotes featuring images of architectural structures have been popular. The images used are either pictures or abstractions of architectural structures. Abstractions often have broader meanings and symbolic connotations. Including the E9 emission group that is still used today, a total of 9 emission groups have been printed since the date of the Republic of Türkiye. The study focuses on the E1 Emission Group, the first banknotes of the Republic. It uses the descriptive analysis method to investigate the architectural, social, and cultural meanings of the architectural images on these banknotes. In addition to the functional and spatial characteristics of the architectural structures, their social, cultural, and historical meanings were evaluated with their periods' political and social atmosphere. The study reveals that banknotes are not only an economic tool but also a reflection of spatial and cultural values. The architectural images used on banknotes in the examined period emphasize common values and ideals and reflect the Republic's ideology and the period's spirit.

    REINTERPRETARE IL RUOLO ECOLOGICO DELL’ACQUA Materiali viventi e design inclusivo
    (LetteraVentidue Edizioni S.r.l., 2025-12-30) Süyük Makaklı, Elif; Yücesan Altay, Ebru
    L’acqua ha storicamente agito come catalizzatore culturale dello spazio, plasmando la vitacollettiva attraverso la sua presenza ecologica e sensoriale. In tale ottica l’articolo reinterpretail ruolo ecologico dell’acqua attraverso un approccio ‘ricerca attraverso il design’ che sviluppaun quadro concettuale per la progettazione di interventi di micro-architetture. Lo studio esploracome i materiali a base biologica, e in particolare i compositi di micelio e i sistemi biolumine-scenti, possano migliorare il coinvolgimento multisensoriale e la consapevolezza ecologicanegli spazi pubblici. Attingendo alla recente letteratura internazionale e alla ricerca nel campodel progetto il contributo individua parametri per le prestazioni luminose, il comportamentodei materiali e la reattività ambientale. La proposta che ne risulta posiziona l’acqua comeun mezzo spaziale attivo, percettibile e inclusivo, contribuendo ai dibattiti attuali sul designmultispecie, l’urbanistica sensoriale e il legame tra gli SDG 6, 11 e 13.

    Human-AI collaboration in architectural design: a comparative analysis of conceptual and computational form generation
    (Ahmet Fidan, 2026-01-31) Süyük Makaklı, Elif; Sütçü, İrem; Köksoy, Zeynep
    Architectural education aims to foster creative thinking and cultivate individual originality through design-based learning. In this context, the rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into design disciplines necessitates an in-depth evaluation of its role in educational environments. The central aim of this study is to understand how AI interacts with conceptual design thinking and how it can influence or challenge students’ conceptual approaches to design. Developed as an experimental workshop for architecture students, the study was structured in three phases: first, students created 15x15x15 cm physical cube models; in the second phase, they developed written prompts describing their models and design concepts to generate AI-based visual outputs; and finally, they critically compared the AI-generated visuals with their original designs.The findings indicate that while AI could not replicate the depth of human creativity, it provided alternative perspectives that enriched students' design processes. The effectiveness of AI integration depended largely on the clarity and conceptual coherence of human-generated prompts. Moreover, the workshop highlighted the pedagogical value of physical model-making in design education, emphasizing embodied learning and spatial reasoning. Ultimately, this study advocates for a hybrid educational model in which AI operates not as a substitute, but as a reflective and dialogic partner in design education, enabling students to integrate intuitive and computational thinking within emerging technological contexts.
