Turkish architecture has a
long history of long-standing and traditional characteristic features. This
feature is based on stone, adobe, wood used in the region. These materials
exhibit the living standards and forms of the region. In this study, wood materials
used in the houses of Denizli’s near districts were chosen as a research
subject. It has been taken care that
the studied houses have not been restored and have not been lost their texture.
Especially, it was considered very important to document with photographs such
historical places in the Aegean region where Turkish red pine (Pinus brutia
Ten.) is used extensively. Many of the houses are in derelict condition. But
there are families living in the houses, although derelict. The picture
encountered during research was surprising. In the districts surveyed, much
more than expected –both in number and quality- traditional Turkish houses were
encountered. The material used was quite rich in labor that cannot be ignored.
However, this wealth could not have been preserved in the houses and they have
already faced demolition. Even more, after the study, the disappearance of some
of these houses was witnessed. Therefore, the protection of these houses is
obviously important, albeit efforts beyond photographic documentation are
needed. As a result, this research performed in Denizli’s near districts
(Babadağ, Buldan, Çal, and Tavas) is intended to be compared to the past and to
promote necessary measures.
