In the XVIIIth century, the Ottoman Empire strengthened its connection with the West in order to improve many fields, especially the military field, and went on the path of modernization. The Empire tried to revise every mechanism of the state based on Westernization efforts and practices in Europe. In this context, the artistic manifestation of Westernization efforts began to be seen from the XVIIIth century. In architecture, the western styles first manifested their influence on the religious, civil, and military building groups built in the capital, Istanbul, and after a while in the countryside.
In the different building groups constructed in the XVIIIth century, the effects of the Rococo and Baroque styles, which were dominant in European countries, are seen in the ornamental details and facade designs. At the end of the XIXth century, many western influences as Imperial, Neoclassicism, or many eastern (Orientalism) influences took their place in architecture either alone or together (in an Eclectic manner), mostly by non-Muslim or foreign architects.
Apart from the mansions built with traditional facade designs, it is possible to come across mansions whose facades are shaped with western styles in almost every city. The patrons of these structures are the prominent wealthy families of the city. One of these families, who followed the innovations of the period and wanted to highlight the buildings they had constructed as a factor of prestige, is the Tiralizades in the Black Sea Region. It can be clearly seen that the mansions built in the Piraziz district of Giresun by Tiralizades, who were deemed worthy of the rank of notables in the XIXth century, have arrangements specific to western styles. In this context, the subject of our study is the examination of the ornamentation and design elements that manifest themselves on the facade surfaces with the western influence as of the XXth century in the mansions built the Tiralizade Family. With this study on mansions belonging to wealthy families in the coastal settlement of the Black Sea, new examples will be brought
