Redesigning Landscape Equipments with Parametric Design: The Case of Konyaaltı Expo 2016 Park

Özet

In this study, it is aimed to redesign some of the landscape equipment of Konyaaltı Expo 2016 Park with a parametric design approach and to compare the park with the existing ones. For this purpose, the landscape equipment‘s in Konyaaltı Expo 2016 Park, which was determined as the study material, were photographed, and analyzed. Using these data, opinions were taken from a group of ten experts, and it was determined which equipment should be redesigned. By targeting the redesigns to be made within the scope of the study, a literature search was made on the concept of Parametric Design and the examples made with parametric design were examined. Models of the new reinforcement elements proposed for Konyaaltı Expo 2016 Park were prepared with the Grasshopper tool and rendered images taken with the help of Lumion software. The evaluation of these designs in terms of aesthetics, economics and functionality, their suitability and how acceptable they are, was determined by asking the experts through a questionnaire. In line with the results of the survey, existing reinforcement elements and parametric design reinforcement elements were compared, and the possibilities and possible restrictions were examined.
