1950�li y�llar�n ortalar�na kadar �stanbul�un Anadolu yakas�nda bir sayfiye yeri olan Ba�dat Caddesi, bu tarihlerden itibaren daimi ikamet alan� olarak d�nü�meye ba�lam�� ve 1965 y�l�nda ��kar�lan Kat Mülkiyeti Kanunu�ndan itibaren in�a faaliyetleri h�z kazanarak b�lgede �ok say�da apartman tasarlanm��t�r. 1972 y�l� sonunda yürürlü�e giren ve cadde üzeri ile sahildeki parseller haricindeki alanlarda daha yo�un ve yüksek yap�la�maya izin veren �1/5000 Bostanc� Erenk�y B�lgeleme �mar Plan�� ile b�lgedeki konut tasar�mlar� de�i�meye ba�lam��t�r. Bu yüzden, 1965-1973 y�llar� aras�nda in�a edilen yap�lar, �nemli birer belge niteli�i ta��maktad�r. Bu apartmanlar, rasyonel kütleleri, geni� balkon ve pencere a��kl�klar�, �i�eklik, balkon parapeti, güne�lik, duvar panosu gibi dekoratif cephe �geleri, dinamik geometrik cephe kompozisyonlar� ve benzer malzeme kullan�mlar� ile ortak karakteristik �zellikler ta��maktad�r. Bu ba�lamda makalenin amac�, s�z konusu apartman yap�lar�n�n cephe �zelliklerini belgelemek, �zgün karakteristiklerini d�nemin dünya ve Türkiye mimarl�� ba�lam�nda de�erlendirmek, onlar� Türkiye�de ayn� zaman diliminde tasarlanm�� konutlardan ay�ran �zellikleri ortaya koymak olarak �ekillenmi�tir. Bu de�erlendirme ayn� zamanda yap�lar�n mimari tasar�mlar� ile bulunduklar� b�lgeye tan�ml�, okunabilir bir kentsel kimlik kazand�r�p kazand�rmad��n� da sorgulamay� sa�layacakt�r. �al��ma kapsam�nda, Ba�dat Caddesi b�lgesinde 15 adet yap� se�ilmi�, bunlar foto�raflar ile belgelenmi� ve Kad�k�y Belediyesi Ar�ivi�nden yap� bilgileri derlenmi�tir. Se�ilen apartmanlar, kütle bi�imleni�i, karakteristik mimari �geler ve malzeme ba�l�klar� alt�nda incelenerek cephe �zellikleri ortaya konulmu�tur. Bu �zellikler d�nemin mimari e�ilimleri ba�lam�nda ele al�narak bir de�erlendirme yap�lm��t�r.

Fa�ade Characteristics of Apartment Buildings Constructed Between 1965-1973 at Ba�dat Avenue and its Surroundings

Ba�dat Avenue, which was a summer place on the Anatolian side of Istanbul until the mid-1950s started to transform into a permanent residential district after this date while construction activities accelerated and apartments were built in the region after the Condominium Law was enacted in 1965. The �1/5000 Bostanc� Erenk�y Zoning Construction Plan� was introduced at the end of 1972, which allows denser and higher construction in parcels except for the ones on the coast and Ba�dat Avenue, so apartment designs started to change in the region. For this reason, the apartments built between 1965 and 1973 are regarded as important documents. They bear common characteristic features with their rational forms, large balcony and window openings, flowerpots, railings, sunshades, decorative wall panels, dynamic geometric fa�ade compositions, and similar fa�ade materials. These features emerge as important elements defining the urban character of the region. In this regard, questioning the authentic features, distinguishing them from the contemporaneous apartments in Turkey, and evaluating them in the context of the architectural tendencies of the era become important. The aim of the article emerges as documenting the fa�ade characteristics of the apartments built between 1965 and 1973 at Ba�dat Avenue, evaluating their authentic characteristics within the context of world architecture as well as the architecture of Turkey. This evaluation enables to question whether they designate a defined urban identity to their region. Within the scope of the study, 15 buildings were selected and documented with photographs while building data were gathered from the Archives of Kad�k�y Municipality. Fa�ade characteristics of the selected apartments were analyzed and compared with the contemporaneous apartments in Turkey to determine the similarities and differences, and they were assessed in the context of the architectural tendencies of the era. The fa�ade characteristics were studied under the titles: building mass features, characteristic architectural elements, and material features. The shaping of the mass and window openings; flowerpots, railings, sunshades, wall panels, and sculptural elements; usage of travertine, marble, wood, and metal; were examined under these headings. The analyses were assisted with figures and similarities as well as differences with other apartments were explained. In addition, the architectural elements were interpreted in relation to the contemporaneous architectural attitudes. The analyses led to the following inferences:
- Contrary to the central districts of Istanbul, these residences have lesser floors as well as wider windows and balconies displaying the summer resort characteristics of the area.
- Although they have common features with other apartments such as rational building mass, wide fa�ade openings, stylized railings, and sculptural elements, they bear distinguishing characteristics such as dynamic compositions, flowerpots, sunshades, artworks, and different materials.
- These authentic features define an architectural language and constitute an urban character.
- Despite their rational planning, as a result of the dynamism and complexity of the fa�ade, excess usage of flowerpots and sunshades, and geometric compositions, it can be assessed that Late Modern principles were adopted while Brutalism is also monitored in a limited sense.
- As the fa�ades bear local elements like travertine cladding, sunshades, and wall panels, a regionalist attitude, which is employed together with universal architectural values, can be observed. The apartments built between 1965 and1973 in Ba�dat Avenue have dynamic fa�ade compositions despite their rational masses while they bear local components. In this regard, these residences dwell upon assembling local circumstances with universal values and endeavor to make a connection with their place. They distinguish from other apartments with their dynamic fa�ade compositions, employment of travertine and wood, excess usage of flowerpots or sunshades, usage of sculptural elements and artworks, and constitute an architectural pattern indigenous to the region, which makes them an important part of the urban characteristic of Ba�dat Avenue. Within this study, it has been aimed to contribute to the literature by documenting the fa�ade characteristics of the apartments constructed between 1965 and 1973 at Ba�dat Avenue, which are architectural heritage in danger due to the urban transformation of the region. In addition, the apartments in question have been evaluated together with other examples from Turkey to exhibit their authentic features and have been discussed in the context of global architecture so that an evaluation can be made in terms of the contemporaneous architectural tendencies. These evaluations have been meant to exhibit the importance of these buildings within the architectural context.
