Abstract

Since the beginning of the history of humanity, courtyards have been taking place on the stage of history as the areas needed by societies. Human beings, who are in constant relationship with the environment they live in during the historical process, have shaped the nature in accordance with their own wishes since the day they existed. This situation developed in the form of protection and struggle previously, and later became a continuous and organic with the discovery of the need for housing. This situation has caused the person to impose new meanings on the outer space. In this study, it is aimed to determine the courtyard, concept, history, characteristics and natural factors affecting the formation of traditional Turkish houses, to evaluate them as living spaces in traditional cultures and to reveal the potentials of courtyards.

Summary

Introduction

Organizing and arranging the environment of mankind starts with the prehistoric period. In this period, firstly, caves were used for housing purposes and housing and open spaces were started to be created with the increase in construction and production activities. In Anatolia, which has hosted many civilizations, traditional houses have been formed according to topography, climate, socio-cultural and socioeconomic structure. The characteristics of these dwellings consist of buildings where housing needs are met and open spaces. With this cultural heritage a cultural mosaic with unique characteristics including the life and traditions of Anatolia for thousands of years has been formed (Bozkurt ve Altınçekiç, 2013)
