A CREATIVE CLUSTER: BABIALI - ISTANBUL

Öz

Istanbul is one of the most rapidly growing metropolises of the world, encapsulating great values and desires a circumspect planning agenda. Babıali as one of the historic clusters in Istanbul is known and described as the capital city of Turkish (printed) media. The transformation of the area is a deductive example to observe an irreversible decision and a great loss for the emerging concept of creative city, where creative economies gain more and more interest all over the world. By surveying the area or the interviews with the former workers, writers, artists, publishers and analyzing the secondary literature on this subject, we aimed to observe this very unique creative formation to contribute to the positive outcomes of creative clusters and the importance of the relevant urban planning decisions.
