Abstract

In a professional field such as architecture that outweighs the artistic side, architect candidates must undergo a qualified aesthetic and cultural education. The idea that the projects to be made or the environments to be designed by architects who have undergone a deep artistic-cultural education and have absorbed the world culture will be more livable and aesthetic has been the starting point of this study. In this sense, great works of art need to be recognized closely to create a new aesthetic perception in society and architects.
The relationship between architecture and cinema starts primarily with the spaces. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the interaction between architecture and cinema through the designs of spaces. The aim of the article is to create an evaluation set that will reveal the original architectural and artistic values in the films by examining the architectural concepts, architectural design principles, and architectural perception in important cinema works which have an intense architectural background. One of our goals is to create tools that enable architects, interior architects, urban planners, industrial designers, and landscape architects to accurately comprehend and examine cinema works that reference the art of architecture and draw conclusions from them.

Through the internalizing of films analyzed in this study, it is possible to achieve cultural maturity that provides valuable resources for enhancing aesthetic, theoretical, and artistic qualities in architectural education. The primary objective of this study is to inspire architects with a profound understanding of the said cinema works, enabling them to approach their profession, events, and projects with a refined, sophisticated, and aesthetic viewpoint, ultimately leading to qualified development.
