Abstract

Fiziksel çevreye görsel bağlamda yaklaşarak kullanıcı ile mekan arasındaki ilişkiyi analiz etmek, mevcut ve potansiyel sorunları belirleyerek çözüm önerileri getirmek kentlerin kamusal yaşamını güçlendirmek adına önemlidir. İsminde aynı zamanda manevi değerleri ve vatan sevgisini barındıran park alanı, görsel yolla analiz edilmiş, tasarım yaklaşımı irdelenerek fiziksel çevre ile kullanıcı davranışları arasındaki ilişki yorumlanmıştır. Çalışma; İzmir ili Bayraklı İlçesi Şehit Fethi Sekin Parkı örneğinde yürütülmüştür. İlk etapta, araştırma alanı genel olarak fotoğraflanmış, görsel yolla gerçekleştirilen değerlendirmelerde, sözü edilen çevrenin, uyandırdığı ilk izlenimler ile dikkati çeken unsurlar, görsel kaliteyi azaltan / artıran faktörler ve yerleşimi farklı kılan özellikler dikkate alınmıştır. İkinci etapta; araştırma alanı mekânsal, duyumsal ve sosyal yönden değerlendirilmiştir. Son etapta ise araştırma alanı, çevre - kullanıcı - davranış temelinde gözlemlenerek fotoğraflanmış, incelenen alanda kullanılan ve kullanılmayan bölümler saptanmıştır. Ayrıca kullanıcı davranışları ile bu davranışın geçtiği fiziksel çevre birlikte ele alınarak, çevresel etmenlerin kullanıcı davranışlarına etkisi ortaya konulmuştur. Çalışma sonucunda her ne kadar ilgi çekici tasarımlar ve alt mekanlar oluşturulmaya çalışılsa da hedeflenen kullanım yoğunluğunun sağlanamadığı belirlenmiş, çalışma alanının geleneksel yapısını bozmayacak iyileştirmelerin kent halkının sosyalleşmesi yönünde önemli katkılar sağlayacağı öngörülmüştür.

Analysis of User - Space Relations: Şehit Fethi Sekin Park Example, İzmir

Abstract

It is important to analyze the relationship between the user and space by approaching the physical environment in a visual context, identifying existing and potential problems and proposing solutions to strengthen the public life of cities. Şehit Fethi Sekin Park, which also possesses sentimental values and love of homeland in its name, has been analyzed visually, and the design approach has been examined and the relationship between physical environment and user behaviour has been interpreted. The study was carried out in the example of Şehit Fethi Sekin Park in Bayraklı District of İzmir. In the first stage, the research area was generally photographed and the visual impressions were taken into consideration by the first impressions of the environment, the remarkable elements, the factors that reduce / increase the visual quality and the features that make the settlement different. In the second stage, the research area was evaluated in terms of spatial, sensory and social aspects. In the last stage, the research area was observed and photographed on the basis of environment - user - behaviour, and used and unused sections of the study area were determined. In addition, user behaviours and the physical environment in which this behaviours take place were handled together and the effects of environmental factors on user behaviours were revealed. As a result of the study, although it was tried to create interesting designs and sub-spaces, it was determined that the intended usage intensity could not be achieved and it was predicted that improvements that would not disturb the traditional structure of the study area would make significant contributions to the socialization of the public.
