Özet
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused many transformations in individual and social life. Many people have not been able to leave their homes for a long time due to the restrictions and curfews imposed by the state authorities. Families had to spend most of their time indoors. Some members of the families had to work from home, and some continued their education online. Individuals who cannot leave home for a long time have changes in their consumption needs, habits and behaviors. During the pandemic period, the differences in consumption habits and behaviors of individuals from different socio-economic status and age groups draw attention. This situation reveals that the pandemic is a transformation process for families characterized by class differences. This study aims to understand the transformation of life styles, consumption habits and behaviors of individuals of different age groups living in the families with different socio-economic background. In order to achieve this goal, 35 in-depth interviews were made with people living in Istanbul. As a result of the interviews, it was revealed that basic needs started to be provided from online platforms, consumption materials such as clothing and outerwear were consumed less and the comsumption of food and beverage items increased. Therefore, it was observed that there was a transformation in lifestyle, consumption habits and behaviors of families.
