Following the site visit to the Konya Closed Basin during Spring 2023, as a group of select participants and the instructor of the graduate course ARCH 542 In Situ: Rethinking Site in Architecture, we went on to collate our field notes, collected samples, recordings  and observations in preparation of a future exhibition. There were also additional participants to the site visit, a professional architect/academic and a landscape architect with whom we wanted to collaborate on an interpretation of this site in the future. As of 2025, we have brought together an initial digital interpretation of the site, with individual projects ongoing that may culminate in a physical exhibition.

An early trip we took together as two intrepid travellers with a colleague from Istanbul Bilgi University Faculty of Architecture  to the famous abode of the Kommagene gods on Mount Nemrut in Adıyaman in 2017 initiated a graduate course called In Situ: Rethinking Site in Architecture.  It was first offered as an elective in the Architectural Graduate Programs' curriculum in Istanbul Bilgi University during Spring 2018. Field work, that is, being in situ was announced as a compulsory component of the course. For its first instalment, Harran plain was selected as the  focus area. In May 2018, all participants of the course, along with a sizeable group of volunteer architects tagging along went on to visit the trajectory from Mount Nemrut to Harran plain, an ancient cultural landscape that sits atop the famous Fertile Crescent. A continued research period with a select group of graduate students and architects who all participated in the site trip resulted in a physical exhibition called Harran: Physiognomy of a Plain in March 2019.
