Emphasizing cultural interaction in shopping spaces: A proposal for tunel passage

The aim of this study is to emphasise the importance of cultural interaction on spaces of exchange, which have an important social role on the transmission of cultural elements. The main objective is to create a proposal based on cultural interaction after evaluating placelessness and loss of identity in today's shopping places. Tunel passage at the Pera is preferred as the proposal area because of cultural interaction at the region. The proposal also aims to underline the importance of shopping spaces, which have cultural ties with their context, and it can be regarded as an alternative for today's shopping malls.
