Özet
Home is a special place we attach personal importance. The main focus of this study is the different and complementary meanings of “homes” that Turkish migrant families in Germany construct. One immigrant family is chosen as a case to investigate the relationship between person and place, the spatial practices at home and spatial characteristics of homes. The family migrated from Turkey to Germany in the early 1970s for economic reasons. The family still lives in Frankfurt, Germany, and they just retired. After retirement, they decided to buy a home in their homeland in Ankara and a summerhouse in Kuşadası, a seaside town close to Izmir. It was expected that the family had constructed different daily experience and homely environments in these homes. The study investigates the key points of the personalization of place and place attachment through observation and interviews. The study has three specific foci. First, family members are interviewed to investigate the individual and collective meanings of home that contribute to their sense of identity. Second, the physical and social dimensions of place and the context within which they are located were observed to discuss the role of physical environment in self-realization and how individuals construct such physical environments. Third, everyday life experiences of the family were inquired. Keywords: migration, home, place attachment, transnationalism, Turkish- German migration, and return migration
