Located in the District of Zeyrek in Istanbul, Turkey, and completed in the 1960s, the Sosyal Sigortalar Kurumu (SSK) or Social Security Agency Complex is currently accepted as one of the most important works of the architect Sedad Hakkı Eldem as well as one of the key modern buildings in Turkey. The most admired characteristic of this complex is how it is harmonically integrated into its historical context, which was once an urban fabric consisting of vernacular Turkish houses, but has changed significantly to its present condition. To evaluate this claim of harmony in a measurable manner, the present paper uses fractal dimension analysis in four hierarchical layers of consecutively diminished complexity. Thus, it is possible to measure the visual complexity of both the SSK Complex and its historical context in a comparative manner and gain insights about the frequently claimed visual harmony.

测量Sedad Eldem SSK复合体的视觉复杂性及其历史背景：使用分形维数的比较分析

Sosyal Sigortalar Kurumu（SSK）或社会保障局综合大楼位于土耳其伊斯坦布尔的Zeyrek区，于1960年代完工，目前被公认为建筑师SedadHakkıEldem的最重要作品之一，也是其中之一。土耳其重要的现代建筑。该建筑群最令人敬佩​​的特征是它如何和谐地融入其历史背景，该历史建筑曾经是由土生土长的土耳其房屋组成的城市结构，但如今已显着改变。为了以可测量的方式评估这种和谐的主张，本文在连续降低的复杂度的四个层次结构中使用了分形维数分析。从而，
