TABLE OF CONTENTS
3CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
This portfolio holds a collection of some of my academic works in architecture.
Each project had it own means of presentation,but for convenient, they are all presented in asimilar layout, while keeping the originalpresentation’s spirit.

The MazeAn Architectural Folly
9CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
The �nal project is created by the idea of both interior and
exterior spaces which surround and explore the core of thefolly. The passages within the folly reference to the idea of both surrounding and exploring the core. In addition the deadends don’t reference to the idea of surrounding the core ofthe folly, instead they are more likely to deceive the viewers. But the continuous pathway does. Multiplicity of the passagescreates deception by referencing to di�erent types of spaces, either to a dead end or to the continuous pathway. Therefore,the design of this folly can be interpreted as a maze. The presence of convex spaces form a distortion in these passagesand disturbs the �ow of the continuous movement.

Townhouse Project
15CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
The �nal project is based on transforming the natural light
through spaces according to how they are programmed, relating to their occupants’ needs. The design is formed bycarving through the shadows, which are created on the site,and bringing the sunlight in. This way, the transformation of the light through the spaces is provided, at the same time that circulation of the light created the �nal design project.In other words, the openings created by carving bring thesunlight in and transorm in through the spaces based on the occupants’ needs.

The method of carving through is repeated several times
to transform the light through the spaces and provide acirculation of natural light within the structure. Besides, themethod of carving through the shadows provides the sunlight to reach all the spaces, it also creates new spacesand shapes of formation in the structure. Not only the transformation of sunlight but also the use of material creates a new understanding about the formation of thestructure. The structure is basically composed of the continuity of materials which are opaque, transparent, andtranslucent materials. The idea of using solid materials to create privacy within the structure since that type of material is mostly used inside of the structure. On the other hand, half-transperancy is to create privacy betweeninterior and exterior, as well as bringing the natural light inside the site. For transforming the natural light throughthe structure, transparent materials are chosen.

Research Assemblage
23CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
The study project investigates the making of spaces for the users in parallel with books or other speci�c archived
entities. The work proposes spaces to write, read, collectassemble, display and exchange. The goal of the exerciseis to study how individual components of the program can be developed into a set of spatial relationships that can become systems of enclosure and structure at di�erentscales through repetition, aggregation, variation and adaptation.Other important issues are adjacency to natural light, the sequence between individual and collective spaces, and partto whole relationships across scales. Space frame method isused to create an idea of in�nity in both the structure and thedesign of this project. Because the chosen shape, triangle, givesan opportunity to aggregate endlessly.

An Archive in NYC
29CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
The �nal project is drawn upon concepts and strategies
initiated in the research assemblage project to proposeand develop designs for a 18,000 square foot archive. In this project the particular archive is chosen to be a sculpture museum. The program, skin and form of the building primarily focuses on the functions and demandson the chosen type of the archive. In addition, naturallight conditions and urban factors are considered to design the form of the building in order to de�ne a relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces. The structure not only provides strength and stability tothe building, but also gives aesthetic and beauty to it.Therefore, the structure of the building becomes thesculpture of it.

The Sixth Street House
41CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
The Sixth Street House o�ers a lens into the hybrid relation-
ship between the known and unknown. Published as an unbuiltexperimental representations, yet built according to ever-changingdemands for exploration and testing of ideas, the house is a getaway, and marriage, between that which exists and that whichdoes not (or once did). Drawn and redrawn by hand and the computer with a rigorous and acute eye using found geometry, ten freshmen from the Pratt Institute UG School of Architecturediscovered and architectural paradise. A place ideal to explore the accurate and ephemeral qualities of representation throughspace, time and movement, and a home that captivates and intrigues.

The Shower on the second �oor is an object that can be
understood as a threshold between the inside and outsideof the house and its site. Since its material is primarily glassblocks, the distinction between public and private is disturbedby how the shower is placed in plan on the facade of the house. Moreover, the Shower is located in the middle of thefacade, connected to the tension beam above with the helpof a vertical beam. Since the tension beam above holds theskylight, the shower through association is central to both the facade and the house itself. The shower extends beyondthe house’s borders and boundaries. It reaches to the rooffrom the �rst �oor in elevation, and breaks the property linein plan. Through structure it strengthens its relationship with the house. Through materiality and transperancy it establishes a new relationship with the outside for a semi-private/publicexperience.

Remote Perception
CEREN ARSLAN | B.ARCH’18 | PORTFOLIO
Remote perception de�nes a transformative and experimental building where you have di�erent levels of visual perception. It
creates a period of anticipation where you can see the landscapebefore you actually get into the nature. As you go through the building you get more secluded and divided which gives you anopportunity to have di�erent visual experiences of the surroundings.I can de�ne this building as an extension of existing built environmentwithin the site which takes you to the natural environment. The horizontality of the building is a limit of physical interaction andleads you to a visual understanding of the landscape and thenature.
