"Flashback" The story of access to historical traces

"Flashback" The story of access to historical traces

Graduation Project: Landwalls Chronicles: Landscape Design of Istanbul Landwall District

Istanbul Technical University

The project focuses on the Landwalls and their surroundings in Fatih, Istanbul. "Landwalls Chronicles" seeks to reveal the uncanny, ambiguous, tangible and intangible nature of the cultural landscapes in Karasurlar on the historic Fatih Peninsula through design that depicts the trio of cultural heritage, ecology and society. Throughout history, the Historic Peninsula has been home to various cultures and civilizations as a Greek colony, Roman city, Byzantine capital, Ottoman capital, and Turkish metropolis, and bears the traces of different cultural and physical nationalities in the city (Mantran, 2015). 
"Flashback, the story of access to historical traces", highlights the intangible heritage that develops around the traces of material heritage. Routes with different themes lead us to the stories/traces around our material heritage, such as bostanlar, historical cemeteries, walls, historical mosques and fountains (the narrative route), and it aims to augment reality both physically and digitally to perceive abstract traces during the journey. By using augmented reality(augmented reality) technologies AR, QR and 3D lenticular (image that moves according to the change of perspective), historical scenes can be accessed through a table and text excerpts. In addition, each of the proposed landscapes was designed taking into account the reflections of people's senses and sensations and is intended to give people a sense of abstract history. As Fatih is now a 1st and 2nd degree earthquake area, the area is transformed into a self-sufficient temporary shelter and living space as it existed at the same time, creating a 'flashback'. 
In the project, the use of the site for different purposes in two different situations and the maturation of these situations could be done under the theme of 'flashback' by making good use of the potential of the site. Free scale analysis, 1000, 500, and 200 scale analysis and design plans, visualization techniques, and models and renderings at various scales were used for the project presentation.
