    Design Education for Adaptive Reuse
    (Archnet-ijar, 2010) Eyuce, Ozen; Eyüce, Ahmet; Eyuce, Ahmet; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Builtform is subject to various types of obsolences in the course of time. Among these functional obsolesences, taking place as an outcome of ever changing modes of production and consumption, are of crucial importance so far as their fate of existing urban fabric is concerned. Defunct buildings become derelict and often subject to demolition which amounts to the eradication of the collective memory. In this connection the process of adaptive reuse can be defined as the task of adjusting functionally obsolete buildings for new program requirements through building conversion. Adaptive reuse projects entail not only alterations within the boundaries of an existing building envolope but also radical changes/transformations in the space configuration so as to accomodate the new set of functional requirements. Therefore, the development of an architectural design scheme in the light of potentials offered and the constraints imposed by an existing architectural entity is essential. Although adaptive reuse projects require case specific approaches depending on the peculiarities of the original structure three main areas of concern can be discerned during the elaboration of the design scheme. These areas of concerns are the space configuration, tectonic aspects of the context within which the project will be realized. The paper addresses itself to the elucidation of these concern areas and the interrelations with the final scheme.

    Adaptive Reuse of Industrial Heritage in Crises Zones: the Soap Factories in the Levant
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Yüceer, Hülya; Zawawi, Zahraa; Yuceer, Hulya; 02.01. Department of Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This paper articulates critical considerations for policies related to the adaptive reuse of industrial heritage, particularly in contexts affected by crises, such as conflicts, wars, and natural disasters using the soap factories of the Levant as a case study. It critically investigates the role of adaptive reuse in conserving industrial heritage buildings impacted by crises. The Levant provides a unique context for examining the intersection of cultural heritage and resilience; soap factories, reflective of the region's olive-oil-rich history and industrial legacy dating back to the 18th century, symbolise the conservation challenges and opportunities posed by ongoing regional conflict. The study systematically analyses existing literature on adaptive reuse and questions conventional paradigms in crisis environments, particularly the suitability of standard transformations such as converting industrial heritage into museums or exhibition spaces. Instead, it aims to broaden the dialogue on adaptive reuse by offering context-sensitive policy recommendations. These strategies balance the imperatives of heritage conservation, sustainable development, and contemporary community demands, contributing to a nuanced understanding of industrial heritage preservation in crisis-affected regions.
