Principles and Applications of Ecological Landscape Design

Öz

With the industrial revolution and the increasing world population, human needs have started to be supplied uncontrollably by the biophysical environment/nature. In recent years, designers, planners, and practitioners have actively developed and discussed new ideas to reduce ecosystem destruction and create a sustainable environment. One of these applications is ecological landscape design. Ecological landscape design creates a double-sided sustainable system for people and the ecosystem. By focusing on the natural characteristics of a site and implementing sustainable practices, ecological landscape design aims to enhance biodiversity, ecosystem services, and the resilience of ecosystems, ultimately contributing to the well-being of communities and ensuring a sustainable environment for future generations. In this context, today, ecological design practices aim to minimise the ecosystem's damage and meet the user's needs. Within the scope of this study, the principles of ecological landscape design were determined and evaluated, and the aim was to reveal the application methods and tools of ecological landscape design.

Ekolojik Peyzaj Tasarım İlkeleri ve Uygulamaları

Öz

Sanayi devrimi ve artan dünya nüfusu ile birlikte insan ihtiyaçları biyofiziksel çevre/doğa tarafından kontrolsüz bir şekilde karşılanmaya başlamıştır. Son yıllarda tasarımcılar, planlamacılar ve uygulayıcılar ekosistem tahribatını azaltmak ve sürdürülebilir bir çevre yaratmak için aktif olarak yeni fikirler geliştirmiş ve tartışmışlardır. Bu uygulamalardan biri de ekolojik peyzaj tasarımıdır. Ekolojik peyzaj tasarımı, insanlar ve ekosistem için çift taraflı sürdürülebilir bir sistem yaratır. Ekolojik peyzaj tasarımı, bir alanın doğal özelliklerine odaklanarak ve sürdürülebilir uygulamaları hayata geçirerek biyo-çeşitliliği, ekosistem hizmetlerini ve ekosistemlerin direncini artırmayı, nihayetinde toplumların refahına katkıda bulunmayı ve gelecek nesiller için sürdürülebilir bir çevre sağlamayı hedeflemektedir. Bu bağlamda, günümüzde ekolojik tasarım uygulamaları, ekosistemin zarar görmesini en aza indirmeyi ve kullanıcının ihtiyaçlarını karşılamayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışma kapsamında ekolojik peyzaj tasarımının ilkeleri belirlenerek değerlendirilmiş, ekolojik peyzaj tasarımının uygulama yöntem ve araçlarının ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır.
