Abstract: In the context of interaction between space-culture, the importance of protection of local identity is an increasing subject in recent years. But unfortunately at the same time, it is a field to obtain information about our losing cultural heritage. Over the centuries, Anatolia has been home to many civilizations, and has acted as a bridge to transfer their traces to future generations. It is possible to see Anatolian culture and identity, living conditions, family and neighborhood relations and important traces of residential architecture and workmanship in traditional housing types in Anatolia. The purpose of the study is to compare the old and new functions of Hamdi Gültepe house which is destroyed and rebuilt with its same facade and also it is a beautiful example of traditional housing culture. The house have been using as a resident since 1940. And by the time, the area of the house became a commercial center and so the house lost its function. Because of this the process of transformation has been analyzed. As a result, the transformation was done not to lose its identity and culture and also the urban skyline was protected otherwise functional transformation lost the traces of family and neighborhood relations. Consequently the unsuitable plan configuration for commercial usage and inefficient spaces were born by the functional transformation
