MODERN KENT MOBİLYASI TASARIMI VE KENTSEL MEKAN KALİTESİ

Öz

Kentler bizim oturma odalarımızdır. Günümüzde okul, iş, alışveriş ve rekreasyon gibi farklı amaçlar için çocuk oyun alanı, spor alanı, sokak, yaya bölgesi, meydan ve park vb. kentsel mekanlarda zamanımızın büyük bölümünü geçirmekteyiz. Bu kentsel mekanlarda otobüs durakları, bisiklet parkları, banklar, piknik masaları, aydınlatma elemanları, çöp kutuları, bitki kapları, çeşmeler, babalar/bariyerler, çitler ve ağaç korumaları vb. kent mobilyalarını kullanırız. Kent mobilyalarının sağlam ve kullanışlı olması yanı sıra estetik olması da çok önemlidir. Kent mobilyalarının estetik olmasında özgün ve modern tasarım ürünü olması önemli bir etkendir. Estetik özellikleri, özgün ve modern tasarımları ile kent mobilyaları kentlinin estetik görüşünün, kentsel mekanların da kalitesinin artmasına katkıda bulunmaktadır.

Makalede kent mobilyaları estetik ve tasarım açısından incelenecektir. Modern kent mobilyaları örnekleri verilecektir.

MODERN URBAN FURNİTURE DESİGN AND URBAN SPACE QUALİTY

Abstract

-Cities are our living rooms. For different purposes (such as school, work, shopping and rcreation), today we spend most of our time in urban spaces such as playground, sport area, street, pedestrian area, square, park etc. We use urban furnitures (such as bus shelters, bicycle stands, seatings, picnic tables, lighting, litter bins, planters, drinking fountains, bollards/barriers, railings and tree protections) in these urban spaces. Besides being firm and useful, the aesthetics of urban furniture is very important. Being a product of original and modern design is a significant factor in aesthetics of an urban furniture. Urban furnitures with aesthetic features, original and modern designs contribute to improve urban dwellers’ aesthetic view and urban quality.

In this paper, urban furnitures will be examined in the aspect of aesthetics and design. Examples of modern urban furnitures will be given.
