These situations were discussed and the mapping of risk synthesis. The importance of user participation in management and urban life was mentioned.

WHAT CHANGES IN SCHOOLS?
Under the moderation of Ozan Avcı, the founders of PAB Architecture, Pınar Gökbayrak, Ali Eray and Burçin Yıldırım, were guests of the Architecture Festival, and started the panel titled "What is changing in schools?" By summarizing the establishment process of Burçin Yıldırım offices. He mentioned that since 2007 they are an office working together and mainly on educational buildings, not only as an architectural project office, but also on a more interactive and versatile way where they meet different people from different disciplines on a higher scale.
On this path, the "Pabedü" brand was founded in 2010 under the leadership of PAB Architecture and he stated that they are trying to convey that the educational spaces are multi-component and that the space should be equipped by the actors and that it is a platform where they make projects in different scales. He mentioned that they are on a more interactive and versatile way.
"THE SPACE ITSELF HAS POTENTIAL TO BE A MULTIPLE TRANSFORMER IN EDUCATION"
Stating that educational buildings are an area where they work with pleasure, Yıldırım stated that the place itself has the potential to be very transformative in education and that it is very enjoyable to realize it and to go on that potential and to progress by putting it on top of every project.
Some conversations were held on Gökçeada. It was mentioned that Pab Architecture designed courtyards, niches and wide corridors that support the island conditions in the Gökçeada High School Campus project. The hangar, which is an architectural faculty building of MEF University, was given as an example on the concepts of shared environment and encounters. It was mentioned as a single space that produces informality within itself.
Afterwards, the concept of flexibility was discussed. The importance of the school to continue its existence as a 24/7 usable place not only for students but also for the whole neighborhood was mentioned in order to stretch the boundaries and increase the encounters. It was focused on the necessity of including the city in this transformation.
HOW DID THE SCHOOLS CHANGE WITH THE PANDEMIC?
The most basic requirements of qualified architectural spaces came to the fore again. During the pandemic process, it was noticed that some buildings of today have moved away from basic requirements such as light and air and the human-oriented design at the basis of architecture. It was mentioned that a serious process about how these places will transform again started with the pandemic.
Online education reminded the importance of physical coexistence. The place, which was named as private, started to become public and being together in different places created a serious inequality.
Based on the example of the development of infrastructure services as a result of the cholera epidemic, we can predict that after the Corona epidemic, developments will occur in the direction of human relationship with nature.
Emphasizing the importance of teaching outside of classrooms with the return of humans to nature, Ozan Avcı said that sometimes his students wanted not to take lessons outside in bad weather conditions.

At the first open door, Lale Özgenel and Selda Bancı from the board of directors conveyed to us the apartment number 19 in Cinnah Street, Ankara and the Architects Association located in this apartment, 1927. The fact that number 19 of Cinnah stands with its original identity in this region, which is most affected by urban transformation, shows how the houses will be renewed and continue to exist in our lives.
Afterwards, we listen to "Selamsız Ucuzevler" in Istanbul by Burak Öztürk. As one of the first examples of social housing in terms of Istanbul's urban history, Selam Ucuzevler conservation, even if it does not meet the current needs of the users, support this idea as a legacy because they feel belonging to that place.
Finally, Devrim Yücel Beslim tells us about the Mare Monte Hotel in Cyprus / Kyrenia. The invisible diplomatic of the preservation of this building, which is one of the important tourism cultural assets of the island, can be emphasized.
