Marc Goodwin photographs 10 offices of architects in Istanbul
Ten architects' studios in Istanbul, Turkey, opened their doors to photographer Marc Goodwin for the latest instalment in his global series.
Norm Architects, Tabanlioglu Architects and Emre Arolat Architecture are just some of the architecture practices captured by Goodwin, the founder of architectural photography site Archmospheres.
"Istanbul is one of my favourite cities," Goodwin told Dezeen. "There are lots of great architects here."
Goodwin has previously shot architects' studios on location in Paris, Shanghai and Los Angeles, but his latest series takes in the Turkish city that straddles Europe and Asia.
"This is a big city for this part of the world, though small compared to [other locations in his series] Seoul, Mexico City or SĂŁo Paulo, and it really feels it," he said of Istanbul.
"Layer upon layer of history, things being torn-down, torn-up, rebuilt. On one level it feels like a constant battle to get things done on the other hand people feed stray cats everywhere you look and fish all along the Bosphorus," he added.
"It feels like a Mediterranean village on steroids."
The photographer had a little more adventure than he bargained for when an earthquake struck the city while he was shooting at Emre Arolat's office, which "collapsed the whole city for the day".
"They only have them once in a blue moon apparently and the last one was a decade ago ? the last time I visited!" he said.
