Istanbul by Pierre Yovanovitch: A 2024 Residence on the Bosphorus
On the banks of the Bosphorus, Pierre Yovanovitch's 2024 Istanbul residence transforms a contemporary waterfront building into a warm, art-filled private home. Natural light, timber, pale stone and sculptural furniture establish a quiet dialogue with the water outside.
Arranged across four levels, the house is anchored by a striking white curved staircase beneath a circular skylight. The double-height living room pairs generous proportions with bespoke seating and carefully selected materials, keeping the changing view of the strait central to the experience.
Works by Anish Kapoor, Alex Katz, Antony Gormley and Annie Morris bring color and character to the restrained architectural palette. Custom pieces by Yovanovitch create comfortable places for conversation, while more intimate rooms retain the calm of a private residence.
The study, dining area, living rooms and bar share the same precise attention to proportion, texture and light. Photographs of this completed project are by Giulio Ghirardi, sourced from the designer's official project gallery.
