The individual questions the relationship of his/her memory with the architecture while observing the geography in which he/she lives. Based on the geography that the individual experiences, social memory and memory spaces, neighborhood culture, urban architecture and aesthetics are disrupted, displaced, erased and transformed into different forms physically and semantically, at the same time, it indicates the emptying of individual and collective memory.
