Project 05
Arnavutköy
Istanbul — 2022
Arnavutköy
Residence
Brief
A waterfront yalı that remembers who it was. Ottoman ornament restored to its finest grain, then gently invited to converse with furniture that could have arrived yesterday — heritage without museum glass.
Salon — ornate ceiling, stone hearth, Bosphorus light
Bay window — carved wood, linen, afternoon gold
— On dialogue, Arnavutköy Residence"The ceiling tells a story from 1880. The sofa tells one from now. They get along."
