Atakan accomplishes in his work a balance of solids and voids in terms
of their relative sizes. As these parts behave in contrasting ways under
light, the work demonstrates a significant use of their spatial and material
property to achieve unity. Asymmetrically curved planar elements that
repeat a simple spatial relation give way to varying spatial experiences
from different viewpoints according to light.

The balance in the use of planar and stick elements provides a set of
steady relations to the composition that are legible from every angle.
The way the elements come together and the rhythm achieved in their
organization provide dynamism to the overall composition. This rhythm is
strengthen by the material qualities of the planner elements, which define
transparent and solid volumes to create a steady hierarchic compositional
unity.

In Binbogas work the contrasting use of material and the orderly
arrangement of the elements create a harmonic composition. The unity
achieved through the successful articulation of the relations and the
opaque-transparency balance created with the material properties are
the positive aspects of Binbogas work. Besides, the repetition of same
relations or their articulation with size and material differentiations of the
elements result in the definition of various spatial experiences.

Güryays work is visibly ordered through a steady rhythm of equally sized
parts which dominate the hierarchical arrangement of elements at different
scales. These primary parts vary, in the way their own respective parts,
such as planes, are articulated. Articulations are simple but inventive,
consistent throughout the design, and refined. Variations in the materiality
of the planar elements establish thematically coherent relations between
the volumes they define.

By formulating a particular system of relations between three combined
elements, one planar and one rigid linear element, Habili creates a 3D
composition with varying spatial qualities. Throughout the composition
the relations between the groups are fixed, but the sizes and the materials
of the elements are changing according to the spatial requirements. In
this way fixed relations create a unity out of variety. His way of using
diagrams while presenting the work is also positive.

Summer’s project tried to achieve an organic form in line with its inner
ordering principles, framed by the use of curvilinear and straight stick
elements. The planner elements used within the structure without getting
in any particular repetition delineate a continuous order through the
proportions of solid-void (transparent – solid) volumes, the choice of
material and the articulation of joints and intersections. Added to these,
the search on the potential structural and formal qualities of the chosen
materials is a successful approach.
