One of the most beautiful interiors we've ever published in T&C, the home of @carolinekoc is a 222-year-old oasis in a resilient metropolis that stretches back two millennia and bridges two continents and countless cultures, "a city of ruins and of end-of-empire melancholy," as Orhan Pamuk described it, "an archipelago of neighbourhoods in which everyone knew each other." In our December issue, a valentine to Istanbul. 📸 @hautebohemiansmfv and ✏️ @thiscarlswanson
