Turkish Architectural Literature Set (4 Books)

The Turkish Architectural Literature Set brings together four important works on modern architecture and art literature. From Istanbul's Levantine architects to theoretical analyses, this set offers a unique resource for exploring the rich heritage of the world of architecture.

Foreign and Levantine Architects of Istanbul

Cengiz Can's research, which he wrote as a thesis in 1993, addressing an important aspect of late Ottoman architecture, was transformed into a book format after a meticulous editorial process. The book also includes photographs taken by Aykut Köksal for this study.

Everything That Stands Is Moving

This book, consisting of texts written by Atilla Yücel about Istanbul, draws a broad framework ranging from the city's modernization story to its architecture, from the problem of its silhouette to 19th-century terraced houses, from Taksim Square to Galata and Pera.

The Limit of Meaning

Aykut Köksal's collection of theoretical texts titled "The Limit of Meaning", first published in 2009, was included in Arketon Publications with a new arrangement and diversified visuals. The book consists of six chapters and a total of twenty-six texts shaped by the nature-culture relationship, architecture, conservation, contemporary art, music, and graphic design.

This Space Is No Longer This Place

Aykut Köksal's un-published theoretical texts have been compiled under the title "This Space Is No Longer This Place". In the book, which carries the subtitle "Discussing Modern/ism", articles ranging from architecture to the city, from contemporary art evaluations to the historiography of architecture, converge within a specific theme.
