Normative values and their cultural roots in the traditional Turkish house
The great civil, architectural art that created the harmonious environment of the Turkish people of previous gene rations has today lost its functionality because of the lack of connection between the old and the new. The "traditional Turkish house," created by a vanished socio-cultural structure, has lost its validity, and the desire for Westernization has left Turkish architecture seeking formal copies of Western cultural products. To bring Turkish architecture out of this impasse will be possible only if an effort is made to rediscover the content of Turkish culture and express it with contemporary language. The aim of this paper is to analyze the cultural origins of the Turkish house and show its usage with contemporary design principles. It begins by defining the cultural components that directly affect the formation of the spatial setting. It then gives a brief introduction to the architecture of the traditional Turkish house. Next, it analyzes normative cultural values and their roots, using the traditional Turkish house as a case study. This is followed by a study of normative values as they form principles of spatial setting in the contemporary Turkish house. Finally, the paper builds on the findings of the case study to offer some proposals for design principles relating to the contemporary Turkish house. ; Publisher version
