Temiz Olanın Sınırları: Popüler Kültürde Simge-Nesne Olarak Ev Terlikleri
(2025) Nasır, Esra Bici
Bu çalışma, kir, temizlik ve hijyen kavramlarının kültürel bağlamdaki inşa biçimlerini ve bu kavramların ev içi mekân düzenine etkilerini incelemektedir. Ev terliği kullanımı, dış dünyanın kirini evin mahrem alanının dışında tutma işleviyle, sadece hijyeni korumakla kalmaz aynı zamanda sembolik sınırlar da oluşturur. Tuvalet, balkon gibi farklı alanlara yönelik özel terliklerin kullanımı, evin içindeki mekânsal ayrışmayı ve hijyenin simgesel düzenini yansıtır. Popüler kültür ürünleri, bu pratiklerin analiz edilmesinde önemli bir kaynak olarak öne çıkar. Endüstriyel yöntemlerle üretilen bir tasarım nesnesi olan ev terliklerinin kültürel anlamlarını incelemek tasarım kültürü açısından da potansiyel arz eder. Bu çalışma, Gülse Birsel’in Yalan Dünya (2012 – 2014) veJet Sosyete (2018 – 2020) dizilerini inceleyerek ev terliğinin kültürel bir gösterge nesnesi olarak nasıl sahneye taşındığını ve toplumsal sınıflar ile hijyen anlayışları arasındaki farklarını mizahi bir dille nasıl tartışmaya açıldığını incelemektedir.
Redesigning Hereke Carpets: A Modernization Path Through Patterns and Compositions at Sümerbank in 1960s Turkiye
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2024) Yavuz Velipasaoglu, D.; Nasir, E.B.; Velipasaoglu, Didem Yavuz
This study examines the mythologization of Anatolian handicrafts created by a group of artists at Sümerbank, a Turkish state enterprise, in the 1960s, which aimed to foster a sense of patriotism (vatan). These designs, emerging with the onset of Turkiye’s multi-party period and the postcolonial context worldwide, provide a framework for exploring local modernism in Turkiye. This study explores how the 1960s were shaped by the prevailing ideology of the time and involved efforts to adopt Western modernist aesthetics, principles of abstraction, and the Bauhaus approach to art and design, in the case of Sümerbank Hereke carpets. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

Between Mass-Market Conventions and Everyday Life: the Domestication of Dining Furniture in Urban Istanbul
(Intellect Ltd., 2021) Nasir E.B.; Nasir, Esra Bici
Although dining tables and chairs function as the main furniture stereotypes valued for hosting in traditional Turkish households, this practice has been subject to changes and challenges in contemporary urban life in Istanbul. This qualitative study of dining furniture brings insights into the design, production, purchase and use of furnishings from a broad review of literature and from semi-structured in-depth interviews undertaken in the homes of young urban professionals in Istanbul between the years 2013 and 2016. Prescribed as indispensable stereotypes in the furniture retail stores and considered as essential domestic units by the interviewees, dining tables and chairs are found out as not fulfilling their intended hosting functions efficiently or being often replaced by centre tables or coffee tables, because of an increase in casual rather than formal occasions. Domestication of the dining table as an open buffet was considered a practical way to help hold the food and drinks that were also on couches and coffee tables. In addition, the dining table was used for completely different functions unrelated to eating, as study desks or as surfaces for folding and ironing laundry, whereas dining chairs were used as places to drape coats or clothing. Interrogating the disconnect between the consumption and use context of the dining suites yields deeper discussion about the level of intellectual capital of Turkish furniture industry and the consumer culture which advices the enactment of norms. Insights in these complex, chang-ing and sometimes contradictory patterns may influence the design of domestic furnishings in Turkey. Therefore, more user-based design research and a further examination of contemporary patterns of use in urban households are needed to activate this potential for the Turkish furniture design industry. © 2021 the Author(s).
