Abstract

The findings of the study is that the urban orders, seen as a visual irregularity, strengthens perceive of the city as a work of art, on account of enabling a “living art”.

Özet

Kent ve planlama tarihi boyunca şehrin kaosunu ortadan kaldırmak amacıyla çeşitli şehir düzenleri geliştirilmiştir. Sanatsal kategoriler içerisinde kent yer almazken, kentte aranılan estetik ölçütün şehirsel düzen ve dokudaki görsel düzenlilik olduğu iddia edilmektedir. Bu araştırmada amaç tarih boyunca geliştirilen şehirsel düzenlerin farklılıklarını belirlemek ve kentin estetik bir değer taşıyan sanat ürünü olarak tezahürüne katkısını tespit etmektir. Araştırma sayısız düzen çeşitlerinin özniteliklerinin analizine dayanır. Araştırma bulguları görsel düzensizlik olarak görülen şehir düzenlerinin “yaşadığımız sanata” imkân tanıması sebebiyle kentin sanat eseri algısını güçlendirdiğidir. Araştırmanın en önemli sonuçlarından biri uyumlu biçimsel unsurların, emics ve etics kanunlara ve bir parçası olduğu doğaya göre doğru ve uygun yerde olması sonucunda ortaya çıkacak olan şey, fiziki anlamda görsel bir düzensizlik tanımlasa bile “güzelleştiren bir güzellik” yarattığıdır.
