Course Objectives
The course aims to provoke students' understanding of representation and production of different approaches to housing / mass housing / settlements / the city, over-looking the arena of practice. The formation of practice overwhelmed under certain influences of the roles, acting and/or sharing the norms, rules and signs of 'life, production and language spheres', upon close inspection, yield a correspondingly illustrative and self-reflecting picture. Students are asked to dwell on examplar studies from Turkey and abroad, as final products, in the second part of the course.
