    An exploratory method for an alternative narrative of housing history in Istanbul
    (University of Toronto Press Inc., 2016) Ataş, Zeynep
    Analysis and visualization of spatial data has proven to be an effective tool in communicating apparent or latent spatial information in an efficient way. Here a specific data processing and visualization method is employed in creating an original base for a nonlinear historical narrative of a specific urban phenomenon. Housing development in Istanbul is selected as a case to be explored through a heuristic method involving correspondence analysis (COA) complemented by clustering methods and Bertin's graphics theory. COA is an exploratory method for cross-tabular data analysis, which facilitates the interpretation of data by visualizing the relative relationship between its variables. Two sets of data on the shares of the state, the private sector, and housing cooperatives in housing development in Istanbul between 1987 and 2007 have been processed by COA. The outputs of the process are correspondence maps and Bertin graphics. Maps create a basis for a spatiotemporal analyses of public and private housing development in Istanbul, while revealing certain relation networks and breaks in housing history that are not quite perceptible by looking at the data tables only. Thus, drawing upon the discoveries from the maps, a nonlinear narrative of housing history is proposed as a collection of several thorough analyses of the discoveries within the economic, political, and social setting particular to this geography.

    Importance performance analysis for sustainability of reused historical building: Mardin Sabanci City Museum and art gallery
    (Emerald Publishing, 2023) Bekar, İrem; Kutlu, İzzettin; Ergün, Ruşen
    Purpose: This study aimed to design a user-participatory methodology to investigate the post-occupancy sustainability of reused historical buildings and to apply it to a case study. Design/methodology/approach: This study was designed in four stages. In the first stage, the sustainability parameters and sub-parameters were determined in the reused historical buildings based on the literature. The second stage included a field study in which the current situation of the study area was analysed, and the users were reached using the survey technique. In the third stage, the data obtained from the user participation were analysed with importance performance analysis (IPA) and an IPA matrix was created. The fourth stage included an evaluation of the results of the analysis and the development of recommendations. Findings: IPA is a supportive method for ensuring the sustainable use of historic buildings. According to the data obtained from the IPA, it was seen that the functional sustainability of the building was achieved to a great extent. At the same time, there were deficiencies in technical and environmental sustainability. In terms of aesthetic sustainability, it was observed that the importance and performance values given by the users were generally consistent with each other. Originality/value: The originality of this study is that the performance of the reused historical buildings in the process of use was monitored with appropriate parameters, and a user-participated method was proposed that allows improvement suggestions to be developed in line with the results obtained.

    Investigation of building certification systems in terms of sustainable preservation: the case of Mardin city in Turkey
    (2023) Kutlu, İzzettin; Bekar, İrem
    The global threats that arise due to the changing needs as a result of the advancement of technology cause the rapid depletion of natural resources. This situation necessitates studies to protect resources and reduce energy consumption. Recent studies have particularly emphasized the concept of “sustainability”. Today, as a result of the emergence of sustainability in buildings, certification systems have been developed in which the features of buildings are revealed. In this study, 4 certificate systems frequently used in different countries were discussed. First of all, these systems were examined, and their current data were revealed. The study aims to reveal the sustainability of a historical building located in an important historical city in Turkey according to criteria of the determined certification system. For this aim, the Old Government House in Mardin was discussed as a study area. The historical features of the building and plan features were included in the study area. In the findings of the study, the features of the historical building were determined according to the criteria of certification systems. In the evaluation of the features revealed, suggestions were made especially for the use of energy and water. At this point, to use simple renewable energy sources and systems will support the efficient and recycling of water in the building. This situation will contribute to the sustainable use of the faculty to a great extent. As a result, the sustainable preservation of historical buildings can be achieved in the long term by producing its own energy and using recyclable systems.

    Post-Occupancy Evaluation: an Expert-User Model Proposal Based on Key Sustainability Indicators
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2025) Bekar, Irem; Erguen, Rusen; Kutlu, Izzettin
    Purpose The user-oriented reusing of historical heritages is a powerful planning strategy to increase sustainability and provide socioeconomic benefits for cities. The study aims to determine the post-occupancy sustainability of reused historical buildings.Design/methodology/approach A holistic model was designed by considering expert and user opinions to select the post-occupancy sustainability of reused historical buildings. The proposed model was developed concerning key sustainability indicators (KSI). This proposed model, which integrates expert and user views, is examined in an educational building with significant cultural value in Mardin.Findings The results of the KSI model indicate that the functional, technical and environmental sustainability of the building are at a medium level, while the aesthetic sustainability is rated as good. An analysis of the differences between importance and performance shows that the largest gap is in functional sustainability, with the smallest gap in technical sustainability. The environmental and aesthetic sustainability indicators show a smaller performance gap than the other two. The results suggest that functional sustainability requires immediate intervention, technical features should be improved based on user needs and aesthetic and environmental sustainability require monitoring but no urgent action.Originality/value The originality of the research is that it proposes a model that combines expert opinion and the opinions of building users to monitor the sustainability of the reused buildings throughout the usage process and enables them to be monitored with key sustainability criteria and to develop improvement suggestions in line with the results obtained.
