Landscape refers to the natural and/or cultural features of a particular area created through interactions between humans and nature. The character of a landscape is seen as a representation of the traditions, customs and aesthetic qualities of its historical and cultural heritage.
Sustainability involves the continued use of natural resources without damaging or degrading their original state and capacity. Sustainability issues in landscape architecture are an important consideration and can be addressed at various stages such as design, planning, implementation, maintenance and restoration. This is particularly important for the preservation of cultural and natural values and processes in the landscape.
The aim of this study was to investigate visions for sustainability in landscape architecture and to present concrete examples at each professional stage (design, planning, implementation, maintenance and restoration). Additionally, the study aimed to outline principles for the conservation of sustainable heritage, recognizing the important relationship between landscape and human factors in achieving a sustainable future. Knidos, a cultural landscape area, was evaluated as an example using the criteria determined by the World Heritage Committee, taking into account its cultural, visual, ecological, social and economic dimensions.

Peyzaj Mimarlığında Sürdürülebilirlik ve Mirasın Korunması: Knidos Örneği, Muğla

Öz

Peyzaj, belirli bir bölgenin, insan ve doğanın etkileşimi ve eylemiyle yaratılan doğal ve/veya kültürel özellikleridir. Bu nedenle peyzajın karakteri, tarihi ve kültürel mirasın geleneklerinin ve estetik niteliklerinin bir yansıması olarak görülmektedir.
Sürdürülebilirlik, doğal kaynakların bozulmadan ve zarar görmeden sürekli kullanılmasıdır. Sürdürülebilirlik vizyonları peyzaj mimarlığının temel kaygılarından biri olmuştur ve tasarım, planlama, uygulama, bakım ve restorasyon aşamalarında gerçekleştirilebilmektedir. Bu özellikle peyzaj içindeki kültürel ve doğal değerlerin ve süreçlerin sürdürülebilirliği ve korunmasıyla ilgilidir.
Çalışmanın amacı, peyzaj mimarlığında sürdürülebilirlik vizyonlarını tasarım, planlama, uygulama, bakım ve restorasyon gibi mesleki her aşamada somut örneklerle tartışmak ve kültürel mirasın korunmasına yönelik sürdürülebilirlik ilkelerini, peyzaj mimarlığı ile peyzaj mimarlığı arasındaki ilişki göz önünde bulundurularak ana hatlarıyla ortaya koymaktır. Peyzaj ve insan faktörleri sürdürülebilir bir geleceğe bağlı olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, kültürel peyzaj örneği olan Knidos, Dünya Miras Komitesi'nin kültürel peyzaj tanımına göre kültürel, görsel, ekolojik, sosyal ve ekonomik boyutlarıyla değerlendirilmiştir.
