ABSTRACT This article focuses on the Vakko textile factory, a modernist industrial building on the E-5 highway in İstanbul Merter, built in 1969 and demolished in 2006. As one of the pioneering locations for modern fashion in Turkey, this factory is among the increasing number of modernist heritage buildings that has been lost due to demolition in the sprawling city of İstanbul. However, the building was demolished because of urban policies as well as company decisions. With its microenvironment and landscaping, this industrial concrete building has witnessed changes in Turkey’s social, economic, and political context from the Hat Law of 1925 to ready-to-wear production starting in the 1970s. The building can be considered one of the most important and the most beautiful examples of modern industrial architecture and international style in Turkey, embracing plastic arts and graphic arts in a period of industrialization as stated by Cengizkan and Kaçel. The building is not only a modernist concrete structure, but also displays the socio-political, economic, and artistic approaches of the period and Turkish postwar modernism. However, this ‘small-scale loss’ building with its conserved and restored unique art works becomes one of the few examples in İstanbul as an expanding city.

扩张城市的小损失：Vakko 纺织厂

摘要 本文重点介绍 Vakko 纺织厂，这是一座位于伊斯坦布尔默特尔 E-5 高速公路上的现代主义工业建筑，建于 1969 年，2006 年拆除。作为土耳其现代时尚的先驱之一，这家工厂是日益增长的工厂之一。伊斯坦布尔这座庞大的城市因拆除而丢失的现代主义遗产建筑的数量。然而，由于城市政策和公司的决定，这座建筑被拆除了。凭借其微环境和景观，这座工业混凝土建筑见证了土耳其社会、经济和政治背景的变化，从 1925 年的帽子法到 1970 年代开始的成衣生产。该建筑可以被认为是土耳其现代工业建筑和国际风格最重要、最美丽的例子之一，正如 Cengizkan 和 Kaçel 所说，在工业化时期拥抱造型艺术和图形艺术。该建筑不仅是现代主义的混凝土结构，还展示了该时期和土耳其战后现代主义的社会政治、经济和艺术方法。然而，这座“小规模损失”的建筑及其保存和修复的独特艺术作品成为伊斯坦布尔作为一个不断扩张的城市为数不多的例子之一。
