Windows… Thresholds that connect us to the outside world and enable us to establish a relationship with the city between “publicity” and “privacy”… Especially with the pandemic and within the physical restrictions and inadequacies brought about by the “lock-down”, the functional importance of windows has increased during the time we spend in our homes. In this context, during the workshop which will be organized by DEPARTMENT OF ARCHITECTURE (TR & EN), we aim to question the function of the window as a border and threshold, and the concepts of publicity, privacy and neighborhood. Within the scope of the workshop, we will try to approach the home-street relationship redefined after the pandemic at various levels and scales through the concepts of inside-outside, open-closed and public-private. Throughout the process, we will look out the window together and experience the "transformation" of the city together.
