Student report (2023) - Z.A. Canbolat, A.J. Oxenaar
The understanding of Architecture History on the evolvement of architecture through generations and cultures is a fundamental tool to gain knowledge about our past, ourselves and the world around us.

Furthermore, the correlation between Ottoman mosques and Post-Ottoman mosques within the research area, and the influence of politics on their development will be analyzed for a better understanding of the mosque architecture in Istanbul. The methodology is a descriptive comparative analysis, supported by photographs and architectural drawings. Additionally, case studies (Ortakoy Mosque (1856), Ertugrul Tekke Mosque (1896), Sisli Mosque (1949) and Marmara İlahiyat Camii (2015)) will be conducted on various architectural scales; urban context, morphology, exterior and interior, and an investigation on the political background of the reigning era.

It includes the modern innovations and trends of its time: a modern interpretation of the past glory of the Ottoman architecture. ...
