    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2016) Çelik, Keziban; İpekoğlu, Başak
    The traditional residential architecture in Şanlıurfa has survived to present in Southeastern Anatolia. Traditional Şanlıurfa houses conserve original design characteristics with specialized spaces around an inner courtyard. The traditional house, dated 1877, located in historical neighborhood in Şanlıurfa was selected as thesis subject, considering its original characteristics to be preserved and its problems to determine conservation decisions. The building was originally arranged as haremlik and selamlık sections. However, in selamlık section, new residential building was constructed. The aim of this thesis was to document haremlik section that has survived until today, analyze architectural and structural characteristics, identify the problems and develop conservation proposals. The method of the study was field survey, documentation, analysis and historical research. The building has spaces authentic to traditional Şanlıurfa houses such as rooms, iwan, stone balcony, traditional kitchen, cellar and camel barn. The house is two storey on south and one storey on north and east. The building has environmental, traditional, historical, architectural and documentary values, however, its structural and morphological problems need interventions. Collapsed vault section on the first floor, missing architectural elements and inharmonious additions are problems of the building. In scope of interventions, continuation of its residential use is suggested, the separated old selamlık section was excluded from the intervention decisions. Structural and morphological intervention decisions were developed to conserve and rehabilitate the original characteristics of the building. With this approach, reconstruction of the collapsed vault sections in the original form with similar material, renewal of joineries and arrangement of spaces in accordance with contemporary use are proposed.

    Identification of Historical Houses in Susuz Dede Park, Göztepe, Izmir
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2014) Boztepe, Çisel; Turan, Mine
    Correct interpretation of archaeological and natural sites comprehending architectural heritage and located in dense urban layout necessitate understanding of their authentic characteristics and possibilities for their presentation rather than proposing independent development strategies. This study takes into consideration an extensively transformed historical district in the metropolitan city of İzmir: Göztepe at the south-west of the city centre. Göztepe had emerged as a new settlement in the late 19th early 20th centuries. There are a twenty seven historical houses in the district among which three derelict ones deserve special attention. The rest have been damaged as a result of an extensive urban transformation. The study focuses on the three derelict houses within the boundaries of an archaeological and natural site known as Susuz Dede Park in the district. The houses forming a group in the park are in an extensively ruined state and under the restoration program of İzmir Metropolitan Municipality. At the same time, this study makes a preliminary survey of the whole of the historical houses in Göztepe both in order to support understanding of the three houses in Susuz Dede Park and fulfill a gap in literature. So, the purpose of this study is the examination of the present state of the derelict historical houses in Susuz Dede Park, Göztepe, İzmir; and identification of their heritage characteristics together with the whole of the historical houses in the district. The scaled drawings of the buildings were prepared by İzmir Metropolitan Municipality, Department of Environmental Conservation and Control in 2004. These documents were revised taking site observations and photographic documentation into consideration. Thematic mapping technique was used to identify characteristics of the cases. Historical research and comparative study were carried out to develop restitution hypothesis. Site surveys were made to decipher the twenty four historical houses. It is concluded that the three historical houses in Susuz Dede Park are valuable as a group and development of Susuz Dede Park cannot be considered independent from this cultural heritage. Secondly, the other twenty four historical houses in the district should be sustained as a whole, since they are document the emergence of Göztepe.
