Modern Turkish interiors research have also expanded greatly with individual as well as projects or research groups like docomomotr interiors and DATUMM (Documenting and Archiving Modern Turkish Furniture) that create awareness through various forms of scholarly (documentaries archival work) and popular (public exhibitions popular books and magazines newspaper pieces and films) output. Although transience and thus a race with time is at the core of modern interiors research and several struggles are common worldwide socio-cultural and economic reasons result in a faster pace in Turkey creating an urgency to implement innovative methods and approaches fitting contemporary prerequisites of the field. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
