Abstract
Temporary housing is one of the most important elements in disaster recovery and reconstruction activities in emergency situations. This study predicts that post-disaster housing and social life needs can be improved through user satisfaction analyses and underlines that user experiences can guide the achievement of better design solutions in temporary housing. In this context, the case study is based on an evaluation of the changes and/or transformations that took place as a result of the Lagoon Hobby Houses campus, built in the Kahramanmaraş Expo area, being opened to the use of disaster victims as temporary housing after the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake. The findings suggest that improvements can be made in evidence- and experience-based design and post-disaster temporary housing design criteria by creating reserve areas for residences, designing common areas that encourage socialization and interaction, and providing access to green areas to overcome post-earthquake traumas more easily.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers of Architectural Research is an international journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, and case studies to promote rapid communication and exchange among scholars, architects, and engineers. This journal introduces and reviews significant and pioneering achievements in the field of architecture research. Subject areas include the primary branches of architecture, such as architectural design and theory, architectural science and technology, urban planning, landscaping architecture, existing building renovation, and architectural heritage conservation. The journal encourages studies based on a rigorous scientific approach and state-of-the-art technology. All published papers reflect original research works and basic theories, models, computing, and design in architecture. High-quality papers addressing the social aspects of architecture are also welcome. This journal is strictly peer-reviewed and accepts only original manuscripts submitted in English.
