Proof of how skilled Mrs. Oya Eczacıbaşı is in art, Istanbul Modern was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano.
When you go to Renzo Piano's official website, a huge Istanbul Modern photo welcomes you on the homepage. In my opinion, this is the clearest evidence that this architect sees this as a masterpiece among the iconic designs he designed all around the world.
The facility, built by Eczacıbaşı Holding and brought to the city, does justice to its geographical location. When I went to the facility, the detail that made me happiest was finding a gallery where you could buy Ara Güler's works right away.
Its spacious interior is much higher than the average interior space of museums and art galleries. In my opinion, it is possible to look at this not only in terms of interior design but also in terms of square meter size.
I remember how much the infrastructure of this place was appreciated on a social media account that analyzed construction.
It is very suitable for both passing through and targeted visits. It can even be combined with just a ferry trip. I really like this aspect.
