Spatial Transformation in the Context of Refunctioning and Sustainability; Nicosia Eagle Eye Boutique Hotel

Abstract

Currently changes linked to socio-cultural and economic factors and pandemics experienced by society have changed people’s needs. Historical buildings reflect the urban and architectural style of the period in which they were constructed, along with the economic, social and cultural accumulation of societies. Preserving buildings, giving them a new function and saving them for future generations, is important in terms of socio- cultural sustainability. The Walled City of Nicosia is a place with dense historical buildings. Many historical residences located in this area are currently in use after refunctioning. With the combination of one or several of these buildings and/or new additions, they have begun to contribute to urban life by transformation for new functions like boutiques, bar, restaurants, café, etc. Linked to this, the study included the refunctioned Nicosia Eagle Eye Boutique hotel located at No. 16 Celaliye Street. The aim of the study was to evaluate and analyse the spatial transformations occurring with the new function by considering the architectural, structural and spatial formation of this refunctioned historical building. As a result of spatial transformation analysis, the preservation of the Nicosia Eagle Eye Boutique Hotel, socio-cultural sustainability, adaptation to the new function and contributions to the urban fabric were revealed. Finally, recommendations are developed for more efficient use in terms of both preservation and sustainability of new functional changes that have been, or will be, implemented.
