These are sometimes built individually and sometimes in a complex manner. When examined in terms of urban space integrity, it is seen that some historical buildings have gained an effective identity in the formation of squares. Squares are areas in cities where roads intersect, people gather and socialize, and are surrounded by components such as historical buildings and trees. These components are the essential elements that reveal the charm of the square. In many stages of history, square arrangements have been made in different forms depending on various reasons. Squares that were the center of a city in the early periods were replaced by squares belonging to a neighborhood in cities that expanded due to the Industrial Revolution with multiple districts. Today, researchers examining square designs group them under names such as historical, architectural, and official squares. In this context, the subject of our article is the facade arrangements and ornaments of the buildings that are the components of the Berlin Gendarmenmarkt Square, which was designed with historical buildings.}, number={3}, publisher={Ordu University}
