At the end of this course, the students;

  1. Learns indoor orientation systems and masters system solutions that will be evaluated during the /project
  2. Develops personal thinking skills for indoor perceptual values
  3. The responsibility of the interior architect is understood in the design for interior way finding systems.
Mode of DeliveryFace to face
PrerequisitesNo
Recommended Optional Programme Components
Course DescriptionIn the course, in which the basic values ??of interior perception are evaluated, orientation and wayfinding design values ??in interior design are discussed. Within the scope of the course, it is aimed to construct and research the relationship between user-spatial perception-orientation systems. At the end of the course, an article is expected to be written within the framework of the subject. At the end of the course, an article is expected to be written within the framework of the subject. Within the scope of the course, the act of finding direction will be evaluated in terms of evacuation systems. The course content is based on spatial information obtained by the users through the evacuation routes and the spatial readings that affect the wayfinding.
