Özet:

The most important element that makes a place habitable is its user and the most important factor that connects the user to the place is the sense of belonging. Human beings have always had an existential need for a sense of belonging throughout history, today and in the future. If we look at this feeling that human beings need in the chronological historical process from an architectural point of view, we observe that this phenomenon emerges much more dominantly in the transformation and development processes of different languages and cultures in their own internal dynamics. As the sociological structure of a region is determined by the societies living there, we can say that the sociological and cultural elements of that region play an important role in the development of the spatialization and shelter motive of societies. Societies evaluate their needs together with their traditions, lifestyles, religious beliefs and economic levels and create a structure. These effects are especially noticeable in the structures formed by traditional residential architecture. Sociological features such as the development of the building and its surroundings according to the cultural factors that have developed throughout history and the place of economy on the structure have gained importance in the development of local architecture. The basis of this study is to examine the changes in the spatial concept of the traditional housing of Fatih, Kadırga District in Istanbul, Turkey and Oxford in England, which have different cultural conditions.
