Food, Senses, and Urban Transformation
This article examined how the temporal rhythms and changing sensory composition of Galata and Karaköy’s foodscape reveal urban transformation through everyday gustatory and olfactory experience. Although sensory ethnography has expanded understandings of embodied urban experience, it remains unevenly developed, with gustatory and olfactory urban experiences often overlooked. The study adopted a multi-phased sensewalking , combining sensory mappin…
Vernacular Architecture as Living Socio-Material Heritage
Vernacular architecture is studied as climate-responsive construction, cultural expression, material practice, and heritage, yet the literature does not always explain how fabric, skills, institutions, and environmental relations change together. This critical interpretive review asks what changes when vernacular architecture is conceptualised as living socio-material heritage rather than only as a building type, material culture, or environmenta…
Possible Traces of Early Modern Human Architectural Heritage
The architectural artefacts, materials, and techniques used for constructing shelters may share some common properties derived from the architectural culture that has evolved within the human species. This article examines the material features and settlement organisations employed in the nest-building activities of early human species and the shelter forms of indigenous peoples residing in sub-Saharan Africa. It questions whether early modern hu…
Understanding the Multi-Sensory in a City’s Cultural Attractions
Museums and their peripheries are hubs of intangible heritage, cultural memory and creative narratives in cities. The “sensory” is often overlooked, yet plays a vital role in museum experiences. This study focuses on the multi-sensory visiting experiences of Istanbul museums on its historical peninsula. Fieldwork was based on public participatory, “in-situ”, and mobile methods, “sensewalking” to collect data. We aimed to provide a new insight int…
Symmetry, architectural culture and theory – the case of Hindu architectural texts ‘shruti/śruti’ and ‘smriti’ in ‘śāstra pramāṇam’ tradition
Symmetry is one of the most fundamental and ubiquitous phenomena in architecture and theory. In this article, we investigated Hindu architectural treatises of ancient Vedic literature that conceptualised and described symmetry in the theory of medieval India. The case focused on Shruti/Śruti and Smriti texts based on Śāstra pramāṇam tradition and asked how architectural treatises transmitted the narratives on symmetry through cultural dynamics, w…
Changes, Losses, and Challenges on Transformation of the Urban Place
Over the years, the socio-cultural structures, architectural compositions of Istanbul have changed gradually. Unavoidably, Istanbul's urban places have been affected as they have gained new faces through the wrong-driven, top-down, controversial changing processes. Especially since the 1990s, the changes have gained momentum, many controversial modifications have occurred in the heart of Istanbul. Istiklal Street has turned into a symbol of the t…
