Abstract

Purpose

Identity elements are the main determinants of urban perception and urban image. Evaluated in this sense, it is of great importance to create renewal and renovation works in the historical urban textures, which have had a unique character in the past and have survived to the present day, according to the ecological and socio-economic structure of the region. This study aims to evaluate the conservation and renovation works carried out in the urban protected areas in Gaziantep and Antakya based on the urban identity elements.

Design/Methodology/Approach

The urban identity elements to be evaluated in the study area were determined, and forms and charts were prepared to create these evaluations. Evaluation results based on 5-point Likert scale were weighted in accordance with expert opinions and conservation index maps were created based on the determined values and interpreted with the help of ArcGIS software. As a result of the quantitative evaluations, identity elements of the conservation activities and their effects on their environment were expressed with the help of maps

Findings

it has been determined that the value of the historical texture can be preserved by adopting the traditional fabric and faithful conservation works, moreover the additions and material changes have negative effects.

Research Limitations/Implications

In the study model was carried out in a narrow area, such as the Gaziantep and Antakya urban site area.

Social Implications

Uniform protection can be prevented by considering historical cities in a way that reflects their identity. Thus, it can be ensured that protection principles are determined according to the concepts of heritage and value and these values are passed on to future generations.

Originality/Value

Considering historical cities serve as cultural bridges, the article is important in terms of examining conservation in these cities.
