Origamı'nin mimarlıkta kullanılmasına kapsamlı bir bakış açısı

In today's conditions, in the production methods used by different disciplines, functionality is sought as well as aesthetics, and design decisions are taken at the beginning of the process by considering the functional properties that the product should have. There is a similar situation in architecture, and it is expected that the methods used in finding form will bring other features. There is a need for methods to achieve maximum efficiency in the construction process, which is created by considering environmental performance, cost, aesthetics, and benefits to the user. One of these methods is origami, known as the art of paper folding, and is used as a design technique for architectural design in different countries around the world. The origami technique, which is basically used to obtain three-dimensional objects from two-dimensional paper, is used in architecture to create volumes and surfaces with a similar logic. In the built examples, it is seen that this technique is used to design and construct the building component, building element, or the whole building. While there are projects where this technique is used for form finding, features such as foldability and deployability from origami are used in projects which require different functions. Within the scope of this thesis, a comprehensive perspective is proposed to this technique, which is used for different purposes and at various scales. In this context, it has been seen that there is a relationship between morphology, building performance, and origami pattern characteristics. This connection between them is effective in using origami as a design technique in architecture. This systematic data set was analyzed and the parameters are defined with this approach. The survey method was used to obtain information about the perspectives of the designers who were inspired by origami while designing their projects. It is aimed to collect data on the use of origami in architecture and the relationship between morphology, building performance, and pattern characteristics stated in the thesis. In this way, it is aimed to reach the participants' perspectives, which they have gained through experience, by asking questions related to the proposed perspective. The answers obtained were analyzed and contributed to the comprehensive perspective proposal in the thesis.
