Every item manipulating the interiors of buildings is a component of the lifestyle for a specific space. The furniture design of a state investigated chronologically is also an interpretation of the adopted lifestyles, changing technologies and transforming contexts, which makes it very critical to follow the cultural practices of this very topology. This paper called The Furniture Design History of Turkey, 1800-2000 investigates the translation of the ideological concepts to the morphological language of furniture. The transformation process from the Ottoman westernisation up to this day is discussed through several milestones of every significant period. Those milestones not only define a specific era, but also stand for the operational, ideological, technological, morphological changes in the field of furniture design within its many folded contexts. Furthermore, the article questions the translation of this very modernisation to the language of furniture. The transformation process from the Ottoman westernisation up to this day is discussed through several milestones of every significant period. This attempt of description starts with the interior of Dolmabahçe Palace and is examined through several figures, firms, institutions, and special productions, until this day.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle10183100444995511
