| Summary: Since the Industrial Revolution, modernism is considered to be the quality of a revolution; as it has created radical changes in perception of time and place in which we live in. According to Marc Auge (1997), for a space to be considered as a place, it has to possess relational and historical features and features concerned with identity. Auge indicates that spaces which do not possess these features cannot be a place in an anthropological sense. Looking from an architectural perspective, shopping malls where individuals have not aggregated any memories to recall, which are weak in terms of relation with their environment and which do not provoke a sense of belongingness constitute examples to such type of structures. Within this context, the scope of this thesis covers the transformation of Tekel Building, an industrial building which has been an important cornerstone in the urban memory of Trabzon, has existed within a historical environment and has shaped the city, into a shopping mall, as an example of a non-place.
