摘要

This study explores the reinterpretation of the traditional kündekârî interlocking woodcraft system through contemporary digital design and fabrication tools. The minbar of the Eşrefoğlu Mosque in Beyşehir was selected as a case study, and the original kündekârî pattern’s geometric structure was digitally reconstructed using Rhinoceros 3D and Grasshopper. Initially, the structural logic of the pattern was analyzed through a set of shape grammar rules, followed by the development of a three-dimensional algorithmic model to achieve the computational reconstruction of the system. By modifying geometric parameters such as angles, thicknesses, and modular relationships within the parametric model, a series of design variations were generated and evaluated in terms of their applicability to contemporary design workflows. The findings reveal that the kündekârî technique, beyond being a craft worthy of preservation, can be redefined in the digital age as a generative design language.
