Ksenia Mardina
Visit this interior shop not to buy (their items are too big anyway) but to experience an adventure. It is located in an old mansion in Cukurcuma and looks like a residential townhouse – in every room you'll find personal belongings, like nighties in the bedroom. The place boasts one-of-a-kind antiques and modern pieces standing next to one another – a hi-tech lamp between marble columns, and an egg chair next to Torkapi palace vase. However, they don't compete and gilded walls complement cutting-edge steel finalizing in a lush garden with palm trees where the Ottoman empire weds the new millennium. So, don't get lost in narrow Galatasaray lanes and find THE door.
