The Turkish home is a living tradition whose refinement has continued uninterrupted for over 10,000 years from the earliest recorded dwellings of Middle Anatolia to the modern Istanbul townhouse. Certain felicitous principles have come to dominate Turkish domestic design: simplicity, economy and a respect for human needs. 'Living in Turkey' draws aside the veil of privacy to lead us into these discreet, carefully hidden interiors. Throughout, spectacular colour photography invites us to share in the enjoyment of these decorative marvels, bringing us closer than ever before to the design, the architecture and the lifestyle of this entrancing culture. First paperback edition. Folded card covers, near fine.
