CONCEPTUALIZATION OF DIALECTICS: RURAL - URBAN INTERFACES
This work is a conceptualization inspired by the landscape of Istanbul, illustrating the intersection and coexistence of urban and rural elements. The composition presents the rapidly developing structures of the city, modern residences built upon the natural topography, and the rural fabric that harmoniously coexists with the expanding metropolitan silhouette in the background. This photograph, reflecting the dynamic urban structure of Istanbul merged with the natural landscape, demonstrates the impact of urbanization on the environment and how man-made structures can interlace with natural spaces. As a vivid example of the dialogue between rural tranquility and urban complexity, this image invites contemplation on urban planning and environmental sustainability.
This conceptual design illustrates the fusion of rural and urban elements, showcasing the dialectics and dichotomies between nature and the built environment. Created with AI Midjourney, this piece uses a cut-out collage technique to present a blend of pastoral scenes and architectural forms, weaving together the organic and the man-made in an impactful architectural diagram. The composition integrates symbols of nature and city life, provoking thought on the interplay between these two diverse worlds.
Elements of nature—trees, mountains, and animals—intermingle with urban symbols, such as buildings and vehicles, in a seamless photoshopped composition that prompts reflection on our environmental footprint and the interconnectedness of human and natural ecosystems. This piece eloquently encapsulates the dialogue between rural simplicity and urban complexity.
