The article titled "Kaybedilmiş Bir Kültürel Miras: Özyağcı Evi, Burdur" by Esra Büyükemir Karagöz who is a lecturer in Istanbul Gelişim University (IGU) Fine Arts Faculty (GSF) Departments of Interior Architecture, Interior Architecture and Environmental Design and Interior Architecture and Environmental Design (English), published in the Journal of Eksen Dokuz Eylül Faculty of Architecture.

In the published article, Lecturer Esra Büyükemir Karagöz examined the Özyağcı House in Burdur city by considering its material, structure, construction system, plan setup, building element, decoration and historical context and revealed the importance of documenting this heritage and bringing it to the literature. Lecturer Esra Büyükemir Karagöz's views on the article are as follows:

"The city of Burdur, which is located within the borders of the Mediterranean Region, has hosted many different ethnic groups throughout history, and this process has been reflected in the residential texture of the city at different scales. Zafer Neighborhood, where Greek and Turkish people live together, today bears the physical traces of the Greek community who migrated as a result of the population exchange with the Kavaklı Greek Orthodox Church and residential buildings. Being a part of this whole, on the Old Secondary School Street, one of the structures that attracted attention during its existence with its size, garden and architectural features was Özyağcı House. The building, which was not noticed by the relevant institutions due to its location, was not registered despite its historical and architectural qualities. It has been learned from the end users who own the house that the building was used as a Greek Hospital for a while during the Ottoman Period. In the historical researches and observations obtained during the field study, no data confirming this information could be reached. For this reason, within the scope of the study, the building has been considered as a traditional residence based on the typology of the period when the owners started to use the building. The preservation of these structures, which are the carriers of heritage in the physical sense in terms of the construction system, material, plan setup, building element and decoration scale, and in the social sense in the context of the functions they undertake, are of great importance in terms of conveying the diversity and characteristics of the historical process. The aforementioned study is important in terms of documenting this precious heritage, which has been lost today, and bringing it to the literature, with the information, documents and visuals obtained from the field work done just before the demolition of the derelict building during the emergency registration period."

We would like to thank Lecturer Esra Büyükemir Karagöz for her contributions and wish her continued success.
