Abstract
The spaces that present clues about lifestyles within the framework of culture and space relationship might be used for transferring cultural values to following generations. Dwellings, provide us with significant data concerning social change and cultural history as they are settlement units where most of daily life is spent. In our study, the sampling is Konya province which has been an important centre in Anatolia due to its geographical location and historical presence. Our study aims to lay bare the cultural codes that constitute the lifestyle of the period between 19th and 21th centuries through an analysis of the cultural changes that occurred in the dwellings. Within the scope of the study four dwellings in Konya which reflect the peculiarities of the period were selected. The analysis was performed over these dwellings using cultural codes. Firstly, cultural behaviour patterns that reflect the lifestyles of the periods studied and cultural codes containing iconic graphic expressions were determined and a culture guide was prepared using these codes. Then, spatial analyses based on cultural codes were conducted on the selected dwellings and cultural function diagrams were prepared. The dwelling structures changing in accordance with lifestyle/cultural structure were presented.
