DYSTOPIAN HOUSING AND FUTURE IMAGINARIES: A DESIGN STUDIO APPROACH

Abstract

Future ecosystem changes and resource shortages make the transformation of residential spaces inevitable. This transformation will not be limited to physical structures; it will be shaped by economic, social, and political factors. Prioritizing sustainability, flexibility, and social harmony in residential designs is critical to adapt to future living conditions. In this context, developing innovative and inclusive solutions will contribute to creating more livable and durable residential spaces. The approach of researching possible residential spaces by constructing different scenarios for the future, which forms the basis of the study, is of critical importance in profoundly understanding the effects of ecosystem changes on residential design and developing alternative solutions. This process was combined with the interior architecture student studio experience, and the design and steps of the future residential image in a dystopian environment were analyzed. This study provides a comprehensive approach to deeply understand and apply the process of researching different scenarios and housing spaces for the future. It also offers a different approach to the design studio experience while evaluating the effects of ecosystem changes and dystopian scenarios on housing designs. The basis of the study is to investigate possible housing spaces by constructing different scenarios for the future. This study questions where the current ecosystem and physical environment can go in the medium-term future and how housing spaces in this new ecosystem may change. Considering the change in the physical environment and the future state of the ecosystem, alternative future scenarios and concepts are examined from a dystopian perspective. In this context, reinterpreting the current system and constructing possible scenarios constitute one of the important steps of the study. These scenarios form the basis of alternative space constructions and address alternative housing spaces that will meet people's sheltering needs. While making suggestions for housing spaces that will transform with the change of the ecosystem, it is also important to question these transformations.
