DESIGN CORE

Turkish Culture

With the genuine reflection of the traditional Turkish cuisine and culture; feeling a home comfort in an exclusive, unique, modern and warm environment. We carried Seraf’s high quality service approach to our interior design concept. As we value to the traditional culture, not forgetting our past and connecting well with our roots, “Life of Tree” represents our feelings and way of thinking through the design.

DESIGN ELEMENTS

Life of Tree

The most used materials were glass, stone and wood. In order to preserve the permeability in the house, all facades were surrounded by opening glass application. The natural stones offered by the topography were matched with specially manufactured ceramics and marbles, ensuring continuity from the soil. Wooden surfaces were preferred in almost all interior surfaces, and the use of natural materials was carried inside. All materials were used together in a balanced way for a warmer environment of the house.

REFLECTION OF DESIGN

Highlights

A key element for the concept is the reflection pools which serves a very important purpose from the aspect of biophilic design; while we carry nature into interiors, we make material connections with nature, we make an accent on our statement: a timeless biophilic design which is provided by the presence of water. In order to maintain spatial integrity in the common area arcades were used with a modern twist. While the gridal main carriages reach to the ground, metal mesh is preferred as an architectural element to have an interplay between light and shadow.
