Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1The Adaptation of Modern Housing Heritage: Authenticity and Integrity in the Case of Cité Modèle(Univ Politecnica Valencia, Editorial Upv, 2024) Ozmen, AycaThe post-war social housing estate, Cit & eacute; Mod & egrave;le (Model City) in Laeken-Brussel (BE) was designed with CIAM principles in 1950s as a high-rise modern residential district where different types of dwellings integrated with car-free zones, wide green areas and various social facilities. Today it is an exceptional urban site in the history of modern architecture in Belgium. However, physical deterioration and socio-economic vulnerability necessitated the adaptation of the settlement in 2005, leading to the preparation of a masterplan which included a twelve-year of rehabilitation programme. Different types of interventions, both prior to this masterplan and in accordance with it, have led to changes in different attributes of this living heritage site. This paper aims to discuss the impacts of various conservation and adaptation strategies on the authenticity and integrity of the modern housing heritage, while considering expanding and questioning their definitions. The methodology includes literature review, field surveys, case study analyses, and comparative tabular evaluations to explore the dimensions of authenticity and integrity in modern housing heritage. The research on this case study has the potential to address a notable question in the literature on both architectural conservation and design based on the dialogue between continuity and change, and the re-interpretation of authenticity and integrity regarding a living modern heritage site.Article Citation - WoS: 8Cittaslow Movement From a Critical Point of View(Kare Publ, 2018) Can, Mehmet Cengiz; Ozmen, AycaThe Cittaslow Movement, shaped upon the idea of slowness, emerged as a reaction to the negative effects of globalization on small cities. It was founded in 1999 in Italy through initiatives implemented by the mayors of 4 small towns (Greve in Chianti, Orvieto, Positano, Bra) and the founder of Slow Food. This movement, which aims to increase the quality of life by preserving and sustaining the local values of settlements, was quickly embraced by more than 200 small cities and towns in 30 countries. However, Cittaslow is still relatively new and developing movement, and the long-term results are not yet fully known. Cittaslow provides practical guidelines for a more livable settlement, rather than relying on theoretical concerns. It emerged as a result of social reflection rather than scientific research. Therefore, concomitant problems may arise in the implementation process. Nevertheless, in the near future, the concept is expected to continue to grow socially and scientifically through the efforts of Cittaslow International to improve the movement and as a result of the increasing interest of researchers and local authorities. It is therefore important to understand and interpret the essence of the Cittaslow Movement properly at this time. The aim of this article was to provide a framework for the founding ideas and goals of the Cittaslow Movement and to describe its development and progress. The outcomes thus far were evaluated from a critical point of view in order to make new proposals. The goal of this research was to raise awareness of the Cittaslow Movement among all stakeholders, particularly local authorities and residents.
