INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS ON DESIGNING NEW BUILDINGS IN HISTORIC CITIES

Abstract

Designing new buildings in historic environments has become a controversial subject in many fields and around the world without a definitive conclusion. Although addressed differently in each country, and regardless of how far the history of that society goes, the way new buildings in historic environments should be designed is constantly on the agenda. The subject is addressed in detail especially in international agreements on the conservation and sustainability of historic environments. However, it is determined that the legal aspects of conservation of historic environments and their relationship with new buildings has not been sufficiently discussed in Turkey. This study aims to find out how this subject is addressed in international agreements and to relate these with Turkish historic cities.
