Master Thesis Evaluation of Current Conservation Activities in Kuşadası Urban Site(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2018) Yönetken, Elif Ece; Turan, MineThis study was conducted to evaluate conservation activities regarding conservation council decisions in a middle sized, but touristic historic city on western coast of Turkey. The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of the current conservation plan and conservation council decisions on the immovable cultural assets in listed urban site of Kuşadası. The methodology includes literature research, archive research in Conservation Council, Pious Foundations and Kuşadası Municipality, site survey comprehending base map correction and photographic documentation; visual analysis, historical research and comparative study, and evaluation of conservation activities with reference to concepts of authenticity and integrity. It is evaluated that there are conservation problems originated from inappropriate conservation implementations ignoring the concept of authenticity and integrity of immovable cultural assets. There is also terminologic confusion in some conservation council decisions. Majority of the conservation implementations have focused on single building scale. Unlicensed constructions stemming from insufficient control of the Municipality in the historic urban environment and lack of implementation of the conservation plan in terms of removal of inharmonious buildings and masses are significant in terms of their negative impact on integrity of the urban layout. Preparation of a management plan, revision of the conservation plan, which dates to 1994, and determination in their application are considered as indispensible for sustaining of authenticity and integrity.Doctoral Thesis Assessment of the Interventions Regarding Some Historical Mosques in Manisa Within the Frame of Conservation Values(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2018) Koşun, Suna; Turan, MineIn spite of the fact that General Directorate of Pious Foundations has will to provide budget for the restoration of waqf origined monuments, there are still contradictions in the related restoration applications. There is an increase in the number of restorations and decrease in the ratio between technical staff and project number. The aim of this study is to understand effects of changes on cultural asset values of waqf origined monuments which have sustained their authentic functions, evaluate the change in the values period by period, assess the current interventions, present restoration history, and propose principles for future interventions that will sustain cultural asset value. Historical mosques in Manisa and dated to different ages are selected as case studies: Haki Baba Mosque (1371), Göktaşlı Mosque (1630-31), Kabasakal Mosque (≤1841), Pazaryeri Mosque (1874) and Çarşı Mosque (1875). Mixed methods combining qualitative and quantitative techniques were used. In conclusion, picturesqueness value, spiritual value, virginity value, rarity value and age value of the monuments and their period by period changes are stated. Scale of intervention, delicacy of the monument and appropriateness of interventions in relation with principles such as reversibility, transmission of data, physical sustainability, and qualified design and workmanship were defined as the parameters that have direct impact on the sustaining of values. In addition, history of restoration of the studied mosques and principles for future interventions regarding similar structures are put forward.Master Thesis Current Conservation State of Some Art Nouveau Houses and Apartment Buildings in Istanbul(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2017) Türkarslan, Gizem; Turan, MineThis study presents five examples of Istanbul Art Nouveau residential architecture in Sarıyer and Beyoğlu districts and their current conservation state. The aim is to evaluate two family yalıs in Sarıyer and three apartment buildings in Beyoğlu. First, Art Nouveau characteristics, its emergence in Europe and Istanbul were investigated. It was important to understand the changes in residential architecture in late Ottoman Empire and see the differences between its late and classical examples before starting to examine the buildings. After the historical research, analysis work of the five case studies had been carried out in site scale including the near-by environment and in single building scales. The way followed was survey with conventional techniques, mapping for visual analysis; literature and archive research in the related municipalities and the conservation councils. Then, each building was evaluated with the information coming from the analysis work and finally a general evaluation became possible. In conclusion, it is observed that Sarıyer and Beyoğlu examples have different conservation problems. Sarıyer examples have conserved both their façade and plan characteristics. They are currently used with the same purpose as their original function, restored and maintained. Their conservation problems are mostly caused by the interventions through the years to their near-by environment their original building material was renewed. In Beyoğlu examples, it can be said that façade of the buildings were preserved but interior organization was changed due to the function changes in Beyoğlu in general. Facades have become shells of the modern interiors.
