Abstract:

The various views on the identity of the Sultan Selim Camii, which is an important place in the Ottoman Age Architecture works in Konya, are based on the size characteristics of the structures, the formations of the elements used and the use of the ratio in design, the subject of this work. Although the Sinan era was a work, due to the similarities in the previous devir structures and mass organizations, a comparison is made in terms of the shaped characteristics of the structure of the palace architects head of the building, Alaeddin Ali Bey, which is considered to be the architect in Istanbul with Yavuz Sultan Selim Camii. For both structures, the literary subject of the architect has not reached light. Here for the first time as a method, the types of belt used of structures are identified and compared with each other and with other structures known during the period. Then the subject of the use of the ratio in the plan and cut plates is discussed and the similar attitude in the design approach of both structures is analytically revealed. In such cases where written sources remain insufficient, it is important to be directed to the structures that are standing in order to be able to resume the subject. In this way, the lighting of the unknown aspects in the monographs of the single structure also contributes to the discovery of the design approaches applied during the period. It is recommended that this work continues for the important works of the pre-Sinan Classical Ottoman Architecture. As a result of the study, it was very likely that the view that these two structures are the work of the same artist was true, and the need for new studies on the use of the ratio in the pre-Ottoman architecture, which was first noticed during this questioning, appeared.
