New English Paperback. Large 8vo. (25 x 23 cm). In English and Turkish. 240 p., color and b/w ills. 500 copies were printed. A souvenir from Izmir.= Izmir'den yadigar. The unity of the old urban fabric in the city of Izmir, having thousands of historical and cultural heritage, is rapidly impaired while the "city identity" is changing. Cultural assets such as forts, bastions, walls, public baths, tombs and inscriptions, bridges, aqueducts, houses, mansions, mosques, fountains and cemeteries are all, our shared memories which are worth-appreciating. Basmane and its neighborhood are famous for having intense cultural assets where historical, architectural and archaeological values are treated with great care. The number of the abondoned, moved, burned and ruined characteristics of the city, caused by the misuse or other countable reasons, are increasing day by day. Due to the unauthorized interventions by the non-experts, they are also cut off from the city's historical identity. In my book 'A Souvenir from Izmir' I intended to draw attention of the relevant institutions and organizations to the importance of the cultural assets in this region, to call the authorities for taking the necessary action for the unregistered artifacts and to help researchers in easily finding their places by giving the exact addresses of these artifacts. Because I am conscious of the fact that protecting and preserving the cultural assets is the most meaningful gift that could be left to the next generations. Hereby, I would like to thank Ayse Üngör, director of Ahmet Piristina city archive and Museum of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, and his colleagues Gülsüm Berdan Eren, Buket Ocak, Alev Turhan, Ekrem Tükenmez, Servet Kuru for their efforts in editing, translating and publicating my book; and Asst. Prof. Dr. Oktay Gökdemir; and Bedriye Gülay Besikçi for her illustrations and old black and white photos, and finally Yunus Koç and Atilla Özdemir for photos.

Fine Turkish In modern clothes. 4to. (33 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 2 volumes set: (xvii, [3], 357 p.; [8], 447 p.), b/w and color plates. Sedad Hakki Eldem was a Turkish Architect. One of the pioneers of nationalized modern architecture in Turkey. He was born in Constantinople (1908). He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts (department of Architecture). Between 1931 and 1932 he travelled to France, England and Germany with a scholarship of the academy. In 1932 he opened his own office, also started teaching at the Academy of Fine Arts and continued until retirement in 1978. In 1934 he worked for the National Architecture Seminar in Turkey which was a complete disaster for him because of the discussions between modern architecture and traditional architecture. In 1938 he designed the Turkish Pavilion in New York Exhibition. Sedad Hakki Eldem represented Turkish Republic at International Union of Architects in Lausanne (1948) after Second World War. Also in the same year Sedad Hakki worked with his colleague Emin Onat on the project of Istanbul Palace of Justice. He worked on proportions and architectural organizations of Ottoman domestic houses, 18th and 19th century palaces and mansions. He was known as a role model and pioneer to reinterpret the Classical Ottoman Patterns in modern architecture. He was a part of Former Artifacts Maintain Council (Eski Eserleri Muhafaza Encümeni) between 1941 and 1945 and also a part of Supreme Council of Antiquities and Monument Real Estate (Gayrimenkul Eski Eserler ve Anitlar Yüksek Kurulu) between 1962 and 1978. His thought was about nationalizing the Modern Architecture. He basically thought that International Style in architecture should not applied everywhere. Some things should be changed in the design by considering the national and domestic texture. He has won the international Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 1986 with the project of Zeyrek Social Security Facilities. Sedad Hakki Eldem's architecture has basically 4 main periods. The first of them, between 1928 and 1934, is known by the instability of his work. After that, the second period is popular with modern trials on Ottoman architectural organization. The time frame of this period spans from 1934 until 1952. The third period of his architecture has lost its Ottoman influence, it looks more modernized between 1952 and 1962. The last part of Eldem's Architecture known for his double approach on projects.This final period started in 1962, and lasted until his death in 1988. (Source: Wikipedia). Extremely rare.
