The architectural vision, crafted by BOU Design Studio under Şebnem Buhara, features a horizontal layout that elegantly interacts with the surrounding topography, enhancing the indoor-outdoor connection for a seamless flow of space.
Upon entering, you’ll notice the neutral tones highlighting bespoke furnishings and art curated by Daphne Behar, blending a minimalist aesthetic with Mediterranean influences that evoke comfort and sophistication.
