In addition to the cultural, economic and technological conditions in constant change and development, the understanding, necessity and usage of public space, are also affected. Along with these changing conditions, new requirements and problems arise such as the inclusivity of these spaces. Augmenting the quality of spaces by enhancing the inclusivity and hence the quality of university campuses as a public space and spreading this philosophy throughout the whole society in professional life by ensuring the awareness is settled on university students as the main campus users who will provide the development of society, is an approach that will sustain the development of societies&cities. The aim of this study is to review the literature in a wide range about conceptual of inclusive design in university campuses. In the meantime identifying the problems faced by users in university campuses, exploring the approaches and examples that will enable all users to access campus spaces and services will be handled. In addition, to use the approaches and to develope solutions to the problems will be encountered. In this study literature review based on inclusive design concepts and university design concepts will be done.

It is one of the most basic conditions for being a global brand and in this scope companies need to follow an export-oriented policy and achieve success at this point. The ability of governments to maintain stability in the global economy depends on the success of large and multinational firms that have driven their economies on the international platform. In developing economies, firms can achieve this success only with government-backed programs. In this context, with the government-sponsored Turquality program, companies can find incentives for their growth. The term Turquality, a combine of Turkish and Quality words, is the world's first state-sponsored branding program. Today, increasingly competitive conditions and changing patterns of consumption, encourage companies seeking to take part in the market share in the international arena to create strong brands that mean more added value and greater market share. In terms of competitive sectors such as textile and ready-to-wear, automotive, electronics and food, the importance of branding in exports is increasing day by day. Turquality is a support platform created by Turkey to have a competitive advantage and to be a global player with its own brands in the international markets by providing managerial knowledge, institutionalization and developments, covering the whole processes from marketing to production, from sales to after sales services of companies with potential for branding. In this paper, the content of this program will be studied and also projects carried out within the scope of Turquality, the parts included in the prepared business plan and the applications belonging to these parts are included. This study will be a guide for both the Turkish industry and the international industry who are interested in qualitatively producing and increasing the market share.

Sketches are important for design process, not for only being a communication tool that tells designers thoughts but also they engage in an interaction by introducing new ideas and developing them. In this context, sketch is not possible to separate from the design process. Designing process continue as long as the act of making sketches which is the visualization tool of continuing ideas. With the advancement of technology it has become part of computer design process and sketches in digital environment work has begun. Today's situation is, programs have been developed that provide the opportunity to sketch using computer and has now become a reality that cannot be ignored from the two different environments for the design process. This study will focus on to sketch in architectural design studio and drawing approaches in digital environment. In this context, this study will examine the design process, the role of the sketches in this process, sketch approaches on computer, and developments in these matters.

In addition to fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process and fuzzy ANP results, another multi-criteria decision making technique, the generalized Choquet integral method with trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, is used for evaluation and the result of this method is compared with fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process and fuzzy ANP results. The main contribution of this paper is to determine the interdependency among main criteria and subcriteria, the nonlinear relationship among them and the environmental uncertainties while prioritizing plan alternatives using the generalized Choquet integral method with the experts' same data that evaluated in the previous study. To the authors' knowledge, this will be the first interdisciplinary study which uses the generalized Choquet integral method in the field of architectural design.

With the development in human life, advances in store design, design concept, commercial buildings' architectural and spatial fiction, the magazine of the interior, and facade design cause rising competition between stores and also between designers. For this reason, in this paper we study the evaluation of store plan alternatives produced with shape grammar using two of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques with fuzzy numbers, namely fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy analytic network process. The main contribution of this paper is to prioritize plan alternatives using numerical methods with experts' view. To the authors' knowledge, this will be the first interdisciplinary study which uses MCDM techniques for evaluating shape grammar outputs in architectural design.

As a parallel of increasing energy demands worldwide and still mostly using fossil fuels, energy saving issues have gained much importance in recent years for all areas of life. It is a fact that construction also plays an important role in the emergence of the energy and environmental problem that we see as the problem of our centenary. As buildings consume about 40% of the world's annual energy consumption globally, this study will focus on the evaluation of residential heating system alternatives using the generalized Choquet integral method with trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The main contribution of this paper is to determine the interdependency among main criteria and subcriteria, the nonlinear relationship among them and the environmental uncertainties while prioritizing residential heating system alternatives using the generalized Choquet integral method with the experts' view. To the authors' knowledge, this will be the first interdisciplinary study that uses the generalized Choquet integral method for residential heating systems.

In addition to these changing circumstances, new requirements and problems such as the inclusion of these areas arise. It is an approach to raise awareness among university students as the main campus users who will increase and improve the spatial quality in professional life by increasing the awareness of university students who will continue the development of society, communities and cities and by increasing the quality of university campuses and spreading this philosophy within the society. The problem faced by users on university campuses is defined by surveys that enable all users to access campus equipment and develop solutions that enable them to use it as they wish.
