ABOUT:
The program will focus on the distinguished architecture of Istanbul and the renowned architect Mimar Sinan, known for their use of geometric patterns. Prominent examples of this architecture include the Şehzade Mosque, Süleymaniye Mosque, the Rüstem Pasha Mosque, and Mihrimah Sultan Mosque, among others.
As part of the program, participants will have the opportunity to visit these iconic structures and learn about their history and architectural features. They will also have the chance to see and analyze the intricate geometric patterns found in these buildings' stone pulpits, ceilings, and kündekari doors. Students will be guided by Serap Ekizler Sönmez in drawing these patterns using traditional methods, such as compass and ruler construction, to gain different perspectives.
Overall, the program will offer a holistic and in-depth approach to observing and understanding the geometric patterns of Istanbul's architectural heritage.
