| Biyofili ve biyofilya kavramlarından türeyen biyofilik tasarımın temel amacı, mekân, doğa ve insanı birlikte düşünmek ve planlamaktır. Biyofili terimi, 1984 yılında Edward Wilson tarafından ortaya atılmış ve doğal öğelerle duygusal/duyusal bağlantının insanlığın özünde olduğu fikrini temsil etmektedir. Önceleri bir terim olarak ortaya çıkan bu yaklaşım, ardından yeşil altyapı sistemlerinde yerini almış ve peyzaj mimarlığı meslek disiplinine "doğa ile tasarla" mottosu ile girmiştir. Bu ders kapsamında, biyofilik tasarımın ne olduğu, peyzaj mimarlığı meslek disiplini ve yeşil altyapı çalışmaları ile ilişkisi ve neden önemli olduğu öğrencilere aktarılacaktır. Bu aktarım görseller ile desteklenecek, dünyadan ve Türkiye'den uygulanmış örnekler verilecektir. Biyofilik tasarım yaklaşımının peyzaj mimarlığına katkıları tartışılacaktır. |
