Sakirin Mosque


Zeynep Fadillioglu, an internationally renowned interior designer, is the first woman to ever design a mosque in Turkey. Located in Istanbul, Sakirin Mosque is absolutely gorgeous. It has the perfect balance between the past and present, between east and west. I especially love the asymmetrical chandelier! Fadillioglu' believes that being a woman, she can offer a different and more aesthetically pleasant experience:

"I care more about the aesthetical side, I care more about the public, I try to give a place to be really left with God, rather than creating a symbol."
