Dessau Törten settlement is the first social housing experiment of Bauhaus, which was designed and implemented at the beginning of the 20th century by architect Walter Gropius. With its organic architecture, juxtaposed cubic clusters of a variety of buildings and structures for that period many new different spatial arrangements, which have tried to give a solution to the housing problem. In doing so, the naturalness of the concept of common life is emphasized through simple architectural design. Customary and new is blended together with this housing design and sheds light on understanding the housing of 21st century at the same time. In this context, to peruse the settlement of Dessau Törten within its own content and ambit is important on account of reading the story of history between the lines of today’s facts. This article is intended for analyzing and understanding its own existence within the reinterpreted form and new spatial relations of the settlement that has occurred in its duration. Dessau Törten housing settlement, which was selected as a field of this research, was studied in the context of existential space as a phenomenological approach in a holistic view. Accordingly, the settlement was analyzed by using qualitative research methods. Hence, after a literature review, written and visual documentation was examined and interpreted in hermeneutics. As a result, the obtained data has been evaluated in terms of spatial design and the designer-user relationship and proposes was made on that subject. The aim of this study is to clarify the interaction between today’s user-space-built environments through Dessau Törten housing settlement. This study will contribute to the literature with its different view and may guide researchers and designers in their research and design in that respect.
