Özet:
The writings of urban theorists that have studied urban settings as fields of ingenuity, and utopias that propose the possible-other in parallel lines go back to very early periods in history. However, works dwelling on the influence of such imaginary constructs on actual spatial practices, in the form of architectural output, per se, are comparably new.
Since the appearance of the very first theoretical work on the relationship between utopia and architecture, barely a century has passed. During this period, theory in this area has developed and expanded rapidly. However, due to a lack of any structure for providing a comparable base and a lack of consensus on what utopia really means, this theory did not indicate a consistently constructed developmental growth. This yielded a great accumulation of unintegrated knowledge, impossible to comprehend in its totality.
Fitting into this gap, this work dwells on and manifests the different patterns of the relationship between the utopian and actual practices of architecture. The aim is to survey the varieties of these relationships in their broadest sense to derive potentialities for contemporary practices.
