New Year’s Lanterns 2012-2013

This is the second year we are experimenting with a beautiful exercise with the Computation-based Basic Design 1[1] students at İstanbul Bilgi University Faculty of Architecture. The exercise is based on the ideas of Benay Gürsoy and Şebnem Yalınay, who are among the pioneers of this studio. The exercise is about the design and production of new year’s lanterns to be lit in the campus garden. Here are a few photos of the projects from the 2012 and 2013 semesters, taken by Avşar Gürpınar. As a geometrical basis for this, we are conducting unrolling and stellation exercises combined with the basic idea of platonic solids and archimedean solids in Rhino.
