Belleğin mimari üzerindeki etkisi tasarım: İlişkinin keşfedilmesitanıma ile bellek arasında hatırlamak

The mechanism of memory for architects is fundamental to investigate and understand since it plays a crucial role in architecture and to help architects understand how their concepts, decisions and designs are formed or inspired. Architects usually catch a house on the street or an image of a building in an article that it is definitely known but there are some common details that cannot be remembered about it. Some details that are blurred sometimes, though it looks so familiar, like the architect who designed it, the year it was built at, the city where that building is located or some architectural details about that building itself, like its colour, materials used on the facades, the shape of windows or balconies and so on. Details that are related to what the architects can remember about any building or image that he sees, or details he can recognize immediately from the first sight, or other details that might take more time to be recalled or recognized. Each architect has his own storage of these details that helps him to create his own language in architecture, a language that represents a vision most of the times, but what affect this language is important, any concept, idea, detail or memory can be considered as vocabulary for that language, those details are recalled later to create that comprehended language. Those recall, retrieve, remember and recognize actions help enhance and enrich the architectural language with all the meaning and concepts that might be brought within, these actions can be gathered under the title of memory with all the divisions it might include. Since there are two classifications of memory retrieval as Psychologists mentioned: (recall and recognition), several questions might be asked: What is recall? What is recognition? Are recall and recognition are related procedures or not? Do architects depend on recall, recognition or both of them while starting their early steps of any design? An experiment on a number of architects was managed in this research to provide better understanding of the relation between recall and recognition actions and their effects on architects and design process in architecture. Though recall and recognition considered as two activities, the research investigates the relation between them and whether these procedures require separate cognitive processes or do they complete each other? Do they have any effects on architects while starting their designs?
