Location: Istanbul – Turkey

Interior Designer: Noyan Berkman

Photography: Ibrahim Özbunar

In this 346 m² residence within Istanbul’s landmark Çiftçi Towers, Noyan Berkman Interiors reimagines urban living as an immersive, sculptural experience where architecture, reflection, and light move in harmony with the city.

Designed for a bold, culturally attuned client, the apartment was envisioned as a cinematic interior, alive by day, atmospheric by night, and always in dialogue with Istanbul’s skyline. At its core lies a fluid mirrored ceiling spanning the main living area. Acting as a “liquid” fifth façade, it captures daylight panoramas and folds the city’s night lights into the home after dark. Combined with full-height glazing and brushed stainless-steel wall panels, the ceiling transforms the space into a vessel of reflection, suspended between steel and sky.

Each design element contributes to a carefully composed rhythm. Sculptural furniture offsets architectural clarity, while tonal restraint, fluid forms, and curated artworks introduce depth and emotion. The material palette balances industrial precision with tactile warmth, achieving sophistication through control rather than excess.

Commissioned by a client whose life bridges multiple cities and cultures, the residence embodies global energy refined through Istanbul’s distinctive sensibility, somewhere between Los Angeles eccentricity and Miami glamour, yet grounded in architectural discipline.

In this project, reflection becomes a design material rather than an effect. Every surface interacts with light and movement, creating an interior that is expressive yet composed. The result is a cinematic, contemplative space that mirrors the pulse of Istanbul while offering calm, precision, and sculptural beauty.
