These projects, on the one hand, change the location choices and architectural characteristics and the urban morphology and the character of the city, on the other hand, influence the forms of presentation and the lifestyle they promise and the socio-cultural structure, in other words, people's housing demands and expectations from the housing. The capitalism-globalization-city relationship, which is the triggering elements of this change, the consumption-oriented lifestyle and large-scale projects that arise as a result of it, the role of the real estate market in the process, the class division created through the purchasing power, and as an indicator of it, the 'home' subject forms the framework of this research.
