Global Architectural Development
Academy
Academy (Greek: Ἀκαδήμεια; Koine Greek Ἀκαδημία) is an institution of secondary education, higher learning, research, or honorary membership. Academia is the worldwide group composed of professors and researchers at institutes of higher learning.
”Pursuing design as a form research raises of questions and phenomena regarding how design is conceptualized, analyzed, and conducted. In GAD Foundation we believe that each design should be unique to its circumstances, users, collaborators and clients. During this studio project students, must demonstrate a depth analysis of the contexts and establish arboresque methodologies to manifest their ideas with a project, because we believe in the power of architecture.

Katılımcılardan, deneyimleri kapsamında, mimarlar, akademisyenler ve sanatçılar gibi meslek profesyonelleriyle entegre geçirdiği sürecin çıktılarını; bir araştırma, içselleştirme ve entellektüel etkileşime dönüştürmelerini istiyoruz. Live-Project olarak adlandırdığımız bu hayata geçen proje süreçlerinde, tasarım ekipleriyle, canlı deneyim alanlarında; mimarlık eğitimi kapsamında edinilen bilgileri yeniden ele alacağız. Katılımcıların boşluklarını doldurarak, kendi arkeolojilerini gerçekleştirdikleri, aynı zamanda keşfettikleri katmanların bir arada yaşadığınının bilincinde oldukları, bir kendini inşaa etme süreci geçirmelerini istiyoruz.
“Live-Project” sürecinin sonunda katılımcılar, tasarım ekipleri ile birlikte deneyimlerini yansıtabilecek ve mimarlık eğitimi kapsamında önceki eğitimlerini yeniden değerlendirebilecekler. Katılımcıların kendi kendilerini inşa etme sürecinden geçmelerini, bilgilerindeki boşlukları doldurmalarını ve kendi arkeolojilerini gerçekleştirmelerini istiyoruz.
