Kandilli House by Ofist
This cute 100 sqm home located in Istanbul, Turkey, has been designed for a young man in his mid 30?s by Ofist.
Description
Is a 100 sqm cozy little home in a pleasant garden facing the beautiful Bosphorus, designed by Ofist for a young man in his mid 30?s, who tries to stay away from technology, avoids social media and most apps, although owning a successful technology based business.
Originally from a Mediterranean village, he still spends all his vacations back home where he grew up and enjoys the peacefulness of the raw, primitive life. He likes carpentry and spends time in the farm.
A life in between two chaotic metropolises like Istanbul and London, this little house is designed as a synthesis of a village and a city house. It is designed for just the basic needs of the lessened life and not one single additional thing. Very functional and just enough. Nestling over Bosphorus, the traditional feelings, local textures, kilims, fabrics and habits act as the main characteristic of the house, where as the base design is sleek, modern and tranquil, since living and working in the middle of the busy city in the year 2020, requires a modern and practical living. In a calm and quiet home life, when gathered with friends, they make music with electronic and acoustic musical instruments like traditional saz, piano, oud, godin multioud and etc. He likes reading and gazing through encyclopedias a lot and spends most of the daily home life with books ...
