Identität durch Architektur im Kontext türkischer Remigration Über »Migrating Spaces«, ein Kunst- und Forschungsprojekt Stefanie Bürkle Abstract Migration is a painful and yet creative experience. This is inquired in the project »Migrating Spaces« (2013-2016) at the example of the houses of German-Turkish builder-owners. It departs from the assumption that the relationship of re-migrants and their buildings without architects is mirrored in the relationship of identity and architecture. This article differentiates the emergence of non-pedigreed respectively anonymous architecture and distinguishes three types of houses: model house, two-faced house, and multi-layer house. Many of them have been realised in cooperatives and as kind of gated communities in Turkey along the Mediterranean coast. The visual fieldwork into the present topic is seen as a procedure of artistic research.
