The Effect Of Colors In Tiles Used In Seljuk Architecture On Spatial Perception: The Example Of Sivas Gök Medrese
Öz
The unique architectural style of the Anatolian Seljuk period emerged from the combination of pre-Islamic and Islamic artistic understandings. During this time, numerous structures such as madrasas, mosques, and libraries were built. The use of decorative elements and tiles was particularly notable in the 13th century. This study focuses on the tiles and their colors used in the Sivas Gök Madrasa, examining their impact on the space. Initially, a literature review was conducted, analyzing sources on Anatolian Seljuk history and tile art. Gök Madrasa was selected as a case study, and the use of tiles in its interior and exterior was identified. The research includes photographs, decorations, materials, and the meanings of colors in the madrasa. The findings highlight the importance of tiles, one of the key decorative elements of the Anatolian Seljuks, in educational structures, aiming to raise awareness of the effect of colors on spatial perception.
