Özet: This study is about the conceptual form, structure, process and outcomes of the elective course of Sustainable Design in Interior Architecture prepared based on the dialogism concept of Mikhail Bakhtin. The course structure is based on the questions of what an elective course is and how the students learn creative thinking at an elective course. In this context, the dialogic environment is offered as a course structure recommendation. Four dialogic environments comprised of the first opening current subjects to discussion, the second allowing interdisciplinary queries, the third establishing connection with the design studio and the fourth transforming conceptual knowledge into a design product are developed at the course. In the first dialogic environment, the historical background of the sustainable design, and the studies, projects and researches in this field being the current subjects of the professional environment are shared with the students with a critical approach. The second dialogic environment is a coffee story application in the form of a disciplinary discussion. The critical approach application in the context of environmentally sensitive design aims for dialogic interaction with the design studio. The transformation of the conceptual knowledge into a design product has been achieved with an interior architecture in a slow city. The dialogic environment is analyzed with student projects and a survey given to the students. The data collected with the survey are evaluated based on dialogism points and course structure. In conclusion, the dialogic environment and unconventional applications have raised awareness among students regarding sustainability and directed them to critical thinking. However, the formation of the dialogic environment with three applications has made it difficult for the students to focus on the subject. Therefore, the dialogic environment for the elective courses should be supported with fewer applications or various questions under a single application.
