Abstract

Consumption was a phenomenon that occurred to meet basic needs in ancient times. It is no longer basic essential for individuals with changing times and technology. Urban consumption places also included commercial products accessible within walking distance in the city in the past. Today, it has turned into shopping malls that have multiple functions individually and gain an image of the city as well as consumption. Within the scope of the study, the historical development process of the shopping centers, which are common in today's cities, has been examined. Markets, agoras, forums, passages, bazaars, multi-storey stores, and today's shopping centers and the missions of these places in the city are dealt with temporally.
In the research, the change of the concept of consumption in the historical process has been evaluated. The study will contribute significantly to the literature with the introduction of the temporal change process. It is thought to be a reference for future studies.
