The Relationship Between Stone and Space Discussed at BAU

The conference and panel on "Stone/Space," hosted by the Bahçeşehir University Faculty of Architecture and Design, attracted great interest.

At the event, moderated jointly by Ahmet Eyüce and Ela Kaçel, the contributions that stone, the oldest natural building material, has made to spatial design and thought were discussed in all their dimensions.

At the conference titled "Architecture and the Material Imagination," given by David Dernie, Head of the Leicester School of Architecture at De Montfort University, the role of stone in creating space was addressed in its historical, theoretical and intellectual aspects.

Şevki Pekin and Nevzat Sayın each gave an engaging talk on stone, space and time through the stone buildings they designed. The event ended with a panel discussion with the three speakers and a Q&A session.
