Abstract

In this study, we determine the effects of different waterscapes on human psychology and how they influence the human activities in the surrounding environment. Based on this understanding, we underline some guiding principles to be used in designing more effective waterscapes, that better satisfy psychological necessities of people (such as social interaction, positive identity, spiritual prosperity) and better support the human activities taking place in the surrounding environment. Psychological effects of different waterscapes (such as energy boosting, exhilarating, tranquillizing, comforting) and their relationship with the activity context of the surrounding environment is investigated by means of visual questionnaires put together using video records. The resulting data from the questionnaires is analyzed to understand the roles played by still and active water components in characterizing the psychological effects of a waterscape and its influence on the surrounding activities. It is found out that different waterscapes have substantially different psychological effects on people and the effectiveness of a waterscape is highly dependent on the activity context of the surrounding environment. Capitalizing on these results, some important design principles that are deemed effective in designing waterscapes are presented.

Özet

Bu çalışmada farklı su öğelerinin insan psikolojisi üzerindeki etkileri ve bulundukları mekanlardaki insan etkinliklerini nasıl etkiledikleri belirlenmiştir. Bu görüş doğrultusunda insanların psikolojik ihtiyaçlarını (sosyal etkileşim, olumlu kimlik, psikolojik refah gibi) daha iyi karşılayan ve o çevre içinde yer alan insan etkinliklerini daha iyi destekleyen, daha etkin su öğelerinin tasarımında kullanılabilecek bazı ilkelerin üzerinde durulmuştur. Farklı su öğelerinin psikolojik etkileri (enerji, hareket, coşku, sakinlik, rahatlama gibi) ve mekansal etkinliklerle ilişkileri kamera görüntülerinin kullanıldığı görsel anket çalışmasıyla saptanmıştır. Hareketli ve durgun su öğelerinin psikolojik etkileri ve çevrelerindeki etkinliklerin gerçekleşmesi üzerinde oynadıkları rolü anlamak için anketten elde edilen veriler analiz edilmiştir. Farklı su öğelerinin insanlar üzerinde farklı psikolojik etkileri olduğu ve su öğelerinin etkisinin içinde bulunduğu mekanın etkinliklerine büyük oranda bağlı olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu sonuçlardan yola çıkarak su elemanlarının tasarımında etkin olabilecek bazı önemli tasarım ilkeleri sunulmuştur.
