Abstract:

The phenomenon of privacy is one of the basic needs of man and is an integral part of daily life. The state of people in which they are, the type of action performed and the privacy that varies depending on who the persons in the relationship are: personal, individual, social and public. As a mechanism that regulates human relations in social life, it is effective in the organization of privacy, lifestyle and physical environment. Houses are private spaces that reflect the spatial shaping of privacy. In this context, there are arrangements on the various levels of privacy in housing planning. In the framework of the article intended to examine the effects of the privacy phenomenon on the formation of traditional housing in the southeastern Anadolu region, the traditional housing in the southeastern Anadolu region is addressed and the housing is analyzed in the context of settlement tissues, plan schemes, spaces types and front characteristics. The article is based on three steps. In the first step, a subconceptual structure was created. In the second step, visual documents related to these examples were provided from literature by identifying examples that will reflect the traditional housing typology and characteristics of the Southeast Anadolu Region. In the last step of the study, the effects of the privacy phenomenon in the traditional houses addressed in the context of the settlement character, the diversity of spaces and the spaces (dizilimi) and the phenomenon of the front. Spatial diversity and synthetic analyses are made through access graphs. The houses of the area are settled in the housing character; nearby, inward and gardened. The plan schemes of the houses consist of open, semi-open and closed spaces ranged around a central garden. In the houses, the fronts of the street are blind, and the places are turned to the garden. In the formation of traditional housing in the southeastern Anadolu region, the fact of privacy as a socio-cultural factor has also been influential in elements such as climate and topography. The reflection of the phenomenon of privacy in the housing forming is possible to see in the scale of the settlement tissue, in the organization of the space, in the characteristics of the front, in the diversity of the space and in the use.
