    Imported but Not Delivered: the Construction of Modern Domesticity and the Spatial Politics of Mass Housing in 1930s' Ankara
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012) Kilinç, Kıvanç
    The social history of the modern house in the early years of the Turkish Republic has predominantly been told as the story of the affluent. This group's residential, professional and entertainment culture became a prime marker of modernisation whereas Turkish architectural historians have limited their research largely to the cubic style single family houses built for and by the upper and middle classes. But can these models explain the complexity of the modern house in 1930s' Turkey? How did architectural layouts, when transferred to different social, cultural and spatial contexts, contribute to the production of gendered divisions? My article adopts domesticity, gender and class as a framework to identify the emergence of indigenous forms of modern architecture and urbanism in early republican Ankara. Analysing the Workers' Houses Settlement (1938), I argue that although individual units were characterised by minimalised spatial configurations, the layouts significantly deviated from Western models. Furthermore, by appropriating localised building traditions and living with extended families, lower-income residents shifted the widely disseminated image of the middle-class ideal of domesticity imported from Central and Western Europe, which has become integral to Turkey's official discourse of modernism since the 1930s.

    Homemaker or Professional? Girls' Schools Designed by Ernst Egli and Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky in Ankara, 1930-1938
    (Homer Academic Publication House, 2013) Kilinç K.
    During the early years of the Turkish Republic, modern architecture became an active tool in the representation of the bourgeois ideal of domesticity. The most significant component of the new Turkish family was the image of the "republican woman" as a nationally-constructed icon. By comparatively examining Ernst Egli's Ismet Paşa Girls' Institute (1930) and Ankara Girls' High School (1936) with Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky's unbuilt annex project for the latter (1938) this paper argues that girls' technical schools and girls' high schools contributed to the making of this much idealized image in considerably different ways. Such diversity enabled the governing elite in Turkey to make a class-based and spatially constructed categorization of women as economic actors: enlightened housewives specialized in one of the so-called "female arts" and upper-class professional women who would participate in public life. It is further argued that this categorization allowed Schütte-Lihotzky, in her design for the unbuilt high school annex in Ankara, to rework the broader "redomestication" issue which marked her earlier career in Weimar Germany.

    Becoming One With the Neighborhood: Collaborative Art, Space-Making, and Urban Change in Izmir Daragac
    (Sage Publications Inc, 2024) Kilinc, Kivanc; Pasin, Burkay; Varinlioglu, Guzden
    Daragac is a former industrial, lower-income neighborhood in Turkey's third-largest city, Izmir. In 2015 several artists settled in the area and started a nonprofit initiative called the Daragac Collective (DC). DC has since organized numerous art events and exhibitions, receiving considerable interest and publicity. Yet, to date, the changes in Daragac's material landscapes have been subtle, and the area remains ungentrified, unlike similar examples in Turkey. This article argues that the collaborative art practice spearheaded by DC played a major role in the preservation of the neighborhood's urban texture. The artists became neighbors with the residents, benefited from the expertise of mechanics, and drew inspiration from the site, while the local community has contributed to the production, exhibition, and appreciation of artworks. Thus, art has become a tool for sociability and a catalyst for interpersonal, cultural, and cross-class exchanges, which could offer an alternative route to art-led urban change in Turkey.
