Environmental Anesthesia and False Vernacular Architecture: The Case Study of the Western Taurus Mountains

Abstract

The use of the term “vernacular” for architecture is grounded on a linguistic analogy1. In linguistics “vernacular” language is the characteristic tongue of a particular region. Vernacular can be regarded as a dialect entailing the adjectives “native” and “indigenous”2. It is assumed that a distinctive cultural identity is encoded in the linguistic patterns of everyday life. In time the term was applied to the field of architecture by assuming that cultural identity is encoded in the architectural patterns of everyday life. Then local culture is considered as a multifaceted and coherent whole whose patterns can be deciphered through different spheres of daily life3. These culture-specific patterns are handed down through successive generations, which leads to the establishment of architectural traditions4.
