Abstract

As the need for housing within the city increases, the number of parcels allocated to housing areas in urban planning has increased and even meeting this need has prevented people from needing green spaces. Even so, even the small-scale areas reserved for the residential environment have begun to be used to eliminate the need for parking, which has caused people sitting in the houses to break away from the green. Concepts such as a green city, a landscape city or an ecological city have emerged in order to find solutions to the problems that exist. At the basis of these concepts, the concept of transforming every area of residential areas into green spaces has come to the forefront, which has brought the concept of green roofs and roof gardens to the foreground. The green roofs provided the ecological and economic evaluation of the places in the city. This study was carried out in the province of Yomra in Trabzon province where the settlement places have seen a considerable increase in recent times. In the study, settlements and open green areas of Yomra district were analyzed. As a result of the analyzes, the areas which can be used as the green roof were determined and the sample work was prepared. As a result of the study, proposals have been made on how the residents can evaluate their own areas for users against policies that do not provide for green open spaces in the plans.
