    Today, new production forms of rural space, which receive immigration and meet the entrepreneurial activities created by this population change, constitute the main aim of study. Thesis focuses on the mutual influence of rural space and rural entrepreneurship in terms of the architecture discipline. The main source of rural livelihood is agricultural production and animal husbandry from past to present. As a result of these migrations, the main livelihoods in the rural area are changing, developing and renewing. Rural architectural space is also in a process of change in line with these activities. In addition, what entrepreneurs understand from the countryside and their reflections gain importance in the transformed space. Based on the migration stories and spatial preferences of individuals who migrated from urban areas to rural, the study deals with thirty-four entrepreneurs and their enterprises located in the rural areas of Urla district of İzmir. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to measure the spatial context of enterprises located on Urla Wine Route and feeding this route. The spatial contexts of enterprises were grouped through the themes that emerged as a result of the analysis. As a result of the analyzes, it has been seen that the site plan, clousure movements, orientation and building form are the most used parameters in architectural design by newcomers. It is aimed that the study will contribute to the literature as it allows the rural entrepreneurship and ispatial context, which has been examined at an upper scale so far, to be evaluated at the scale of architectural space

    İzmir, which has a considerable place among the Mediterranean port cities of the 19th century, is not only similar to other Mediterranean port cities due to its trade dynamics, but also differs with the diversity and political development of the actors who have a say in commerce. After the industrial revolution, the hierarchical structure in world trade is reshaped with the expansion of the market area of trade. While industrial countries are at the top of the pyramid, the peripherical countries, whose economy is based on agriculture, are at the lower levels. The position that distinguishes the Ottoman Empire from the others is that it is the scene of the endless competition between industrialized European countries that will start from the 18th century and continue until the 21st century. İzmir is one of the plateaus of this competition. The city, which was considered the second capital center of the empire after Istanbul, especially in the 19th century, continues to be one of the most important ports. In this period, architectural and urban design-scale arrangements and innovations were made in İzmir by the Ottoman government and on a local scale, but especially the initiatives of western countries had a significant impact on the morphology of the city. In this context, the morphological transformation of the city of Izmir in the 19th century, the location of Izmir in local, regional and global networks and its relations with which urban interventions will be evaluated through maps, drawings and documents related to railway and transportation, especially from the Ottoman archive records of the Presidency of State Archives dated after 1850. In this study, in addition to the previous Izmir narratives, the transformation and structuring of the parcels to be used for the Kordon region and mega transportation projects, which will serve especially the industry channels, will be studied at a lower scale. It is within the scope of the study to focus on how the urban fabric of İzmir harbor zone was transformed in the light of the historical and economic breaks experienced by the empire in this period, and to seek a new conceptual port reading for the 19th century İzmir.
