A House in Ankara Ulucanlar District in the Context of Traditional Ottoman Architecture

Abstract

In this article, the historical Anatolian Turkish houses, which have completed their development process in the Ottoman Empire Period have been examined. The plan types of these houses, which acquired their unique character in Anatolia and spread to geographies such as Balkans and Caucasus over time, have been examined in terms of architectural characteristics, construction techniques and decoration features and especially the historical houses built in Ankara, a Central Anatolian city, have been emphasized. In line with the data obtained on the subject, the historical house located in “Ulucanlar Eryokuşu” Street in Altındağ District of Ankara, on block no 2225 and parcel no 6 with door number 9/A has been selected as the case study. The selected sampling area has been examined in terms of the characteristics of the historical Ankara houses. The historical Ottoman-Turkish house has begun to disappear since the 20th century, so the number of these houses having survived until today is quite low. The purpose of this article is to examine and evaluate the characteristics of historical Ottoman-Turkish houses in Ankara and to clarify the subject through the sample house that still possesses these features and has preserved its originality to a great extent. With this study, it is intended to draw attention to the protection of historical Ottoman-Turkish houses that are few in number today.
