Kalender H., 2021 A Feminist Perspective of Architectural Practice, Master Thesis, Istanbul Technical University, Graduate School Department of Architecture, Architectural Design Program, İstanbul.
I can search for an answer to “How can feminism affect our daily practices and ethical guidelines in architecture?” while specifying the research subject.
“How can approaches developed by feminist practices that affirm different concepts of spatiality and subjectivity interact with architecture?”
Reconsidering gendered language and constructions in architectural practice requires a critical examination of the processes involved in the production of space. I believe feminist theory occupies a vital position within pluralistic culture, which draws strength from the differences in these spatial codes, representations, and discourses created through this critical perspective to forge a new spatial language. I hope this study evolves into an interdisciplinary dialogue and contributes to feminist architectural research.
