MOST ADMIRED RESIDENCE \\ Interior Designer Seyhan Ozdemir

Perfection...

I had to start this series of posts with probably my number one favorite apartment of all time (big call). It is the Istanbul apartment of Interior Designer Seyhan Ozdemir, one half of Turkish design duo Autoban. The apartment boasts an exquisite fusion of classic, iconic and contemporary furniture. It is modern and quirky while remaining timeless and elegant which is not a skill that comes with ease. The ever elegant pallet of greys are given an edge with subtle pops of colour and the integration of metallic gold throughout.

Some lovely details. That aged wall is incredible, you cant buy this kind of character - if you ever come across a surface like this in an old space which you are refurbishing don't dare plaster over something like this, the character is invaluable. And the metallic gold heaters and exposed piping are clever feature.

People are often scared to paint up a ceiling and make it a bold feature of a room. This is a beautiful example of feature ceiling success. And the metallic gold puts great emphasis of the pendant lamp designed by Seyhan Ozdemir herself along with the other half of Autoban, Sefer Çağlar.

Im not usually a big fan of bed heads but this is stunning.

I have the second edition as well - well worth getting  \\  "The Octopus Light" featured in Ozdemir's apartment, designed by Seyhan Ozdemir and Sefer Çağlar, available Bonluxat
