TI  - Transformation in a housing- design story: Reading the spatial typologies of apartment projects in Hatay-Izmir
AB  - The politics of central government or incentives determine new design-systemsof housing plots as well as housing units. Especially after the enactment of the lawof urban regeneration for risky areas, regeneration of areas under disaster risk,there has been an acceleration in knocking down old buildings and construct-ing new ones in inner cities. Thus, this paper focuses on the changes in housingtypologies in Hatay-Izmir, in terms of space syntax parameters through the timeperiod 1960-2000, and interprets the final plan-solutions within the perspectiveof urban regeneration.By accelerating implementations of the urban transformation projects in Hatayregion, alternative plan-typologies coming from the past have undergone the so-called “re-design and transformation” process; however, they have actually beensubstituted by the “never-changing” plan-templates of the apartment typology.We will examine these changes in plan typologies and spatial organisations of thementioned apartment-projects on the same plots by utilizing the method of spacesyntax and visibility analysis (VGA). Transformations in spatial configuration intwo periods are interpreted through their relationships to shifts in meaning ofprivacy and daily life represented by degree of permeability and connectivity ofhousing-unit-plans based on spatial analysis.
