    Visual Comfort and Indoor Environmental Quality in a Workplace Setting: A Case Study in Ankara, Türkiye
    (Univ Zagreb Fac Architecture, 2025) Avci, Ayse Nihan
    Workplaces are occasionally specified in locations where learning environments are placed together, and they are also found in common areas with various functions. Individuals need light, as it is a vital component of modern life that fosters a sense of comfort, health, and well-being. Lighting systems in interior architecture need to be designed according to the function of the space and individual needs. In cases where natural lighting is insufficient, comfortable, healthy, and prosperous places are designed with mixed-use lighting. Factors affecting indoor environmental quality, such as sound, color, and thermal comfort, should be designed together with lighting. This study aims to investigate the indoor environmental quality parameters of the specified workplace regarding visual comfort. Students voluntarily participated in the study. An experimental space on the first floor of the building, known as the "Common Building" of & Ccedil;ankaya University and serving as a connection point for the faculties, was chosen for the study. This type of research is crucial for ensuring that indoor environmental quality parameters are effectively utilized indoors to enhance human-centric interior design.

    Assessment of Daylighting in a Historical Educational Building: Ankara University Faculty of Science Analytical Chemistry Laboratory
    (Znack Publishing House, 2023) Avci, Ayse Nihan
    The conditions of Ottoman architecture persisted during the republican period at the turn of the 20th century. Later, radical changes in the structure of the state affected the field of architecture, and changes in the world were reflected in our country. The structures that are the subject of architectural debates are typically early republican period buildings, which were built between 1920s and 1950s. On the other hand, in past buildings, the interior de-sign criteria that are important for the user in interior design have been the subject of interest in various disciplines. Lighting - daylighting and electric lighting - in different interiors is one of the design criteria that has intrigued many researchers. Laboratories, classrooms, studios, circulation areas, administrative spaces, offices, conference rooms, and wet spaces are all common features of educational buildings. Each of these spaces has unique lighting requirements. The aim of this study is to assess the daylighting performance in the interior and encourage similar studies in historical educational buildings rather than the architectural design of these buildings. Daylighting performance was assessed in the analytical chemistry laboratory at the Ankara University Faculty of Science, block A, which was built during the Second National Architectural Movement and bears the traces of Sedad Hakki El-dem, Emin Onat, and Paul Bonatz. A morning interval (10:00-11:00) where the courses are considered the most productive was chosen for the evaluation. The results were compared and interpreted with the values specified in the standards; the measurement is limited to the day and time interval. Keywords: daylighting, the Second National Architectural Movement, Ankara, Faculty of Science, educational building, analytical chemistry laboratory
