A map collection including 100 maps chosen which cover 500 years of Constantinople, 1422-1922. To be able to see Istanbul from so hign up and yet to see into it so deeply. To look from the moon and touch a minaret or reach out from Mars and caress the dome of Hagia Sophia. For close to seventeen years almost all of these maps have passed through our hands and for those that did not, we have always had a picture of them in our minds. Some that are close to five hundred years old look as though they have just left the press, while others more recent have been reduced to tatters. However as soon as we decided upon this book they all started to come to life notwithstanding their musty smell. We are not historians, but we are Istanbullu and we all share the d bringing these extraordinary mysteries out into the light of day. It was down to Ayse Yetiskin Kubilay (PhD), who, with great application and expertise put them in their historical context. Tansel Baybara managed to create miracles with the graphic designer's skill and it goes without saying rid of this would have been conceivable without Ulkem Ozge Sevgilier. From the moment we decided to publish this book we were s by both enthusiasm and encouragement, the surprise of which still overwhelms and gives us pleasure now. From the very first draft, all those have contributed but a few words in counsel, have become partner enterprise. However, there are a few who cannot pass without mention: first is born Nick Adjemoglou with his passion for Istanbul, and as if to prove that fact, he has dedicated years of his life to his extraordinary collection which he so generously shared with us, all the way from Athens. And ther our good friend Erhan Oner, who shared our enthusiasm, temperir all his own experience. Finally there are Bahattin Oztuncay and Mert Sandalci who have supported this project at every stage with their knowledge and experience. We must extend our profound gratitude to the Agaoglu Group stinting support which they have contributed from the moment they first laid eyes on the project. We consider it a milestone in our publishing life the moment that Yalcin Balci came into our book store to pick through few volumes. We ask for your understanding if we have overlooked anyone, but as we mentioned before, we are still a little overwhelmed. The scent of Pera's vineyards remains in our nostrils still. A heavy volume. Extra shipping cost will be requested.

2012New English Paperback. Pbo. Mint. Oblong large 8vo. (20 x 22 cm). In English and Turkish. 300 p., color and b/w ills. Edoardo de Nari, 1874-1954: The architect of changing times.= Edoardo de Nari, 1874-1954: Degisen zamanlarin mimari. The series of exhibitions, initiated by Suna and Inan Kiraç Foundation Istanbul Research Institute, on architects and city planners who have left their imprint on Istanbul, continued with Edoardo de Nari, one of the leading Italian architects active during the intriguing and colorful period of transition from the end of the Ottoman era to the first twenty-five years of the young Republic. The exhibition, compiled from the private archives of Büke Uras, as well as different collections, not only stood testimony to the interesting life and career of an architect's life between 1895 and 1954, but it also provided an architectural and social reading of the first half of the 20th century in Istanbul through a multifaceted individual; an Istanbul architect. Although Edoardo De Nari may have been neglected in the history of local architecture, he nonetheless stood out in the architecture of his period in Istanbul. He was gifted in many areas and possessed qualifications that allowed him to practice his professional career in foreign lands: architect, engineer, composer, world traveler, and, finally, politician. While revealing the real designer of a number of buildings whose architect remained unknown or ambiguous to date, the exhibition Architect of Changing Time: Edoardo De Nari also reflected, through the different styles of the architect, the aesthetic proclivities of a cosmopolitan upper class enjoying their final days in Istanbul.

Édition originale de la librairie de l'École centrale des Arts et Manufactures. In-8, 212 x 158 mm, 328 pp. Relié demi-chagrin anthracite, dos à 5 nerfs, titre et nom d'auteur en caractères d'imprimerie dorés soulignés, fleurons. Couverture conservée.

"Nous voyons les villes se former autour des monastères, se développer aux abords des châteaux-forts, s'accroître aux abords de centres importants, puis s'étendre sans ordre et sans méthode, les rues allant dans tous les sens, tortueuses et étroits, beaucoup ne pouvant servir qu'aux piétons, certaines même se terminant en cul de sac, formant des impasses puantes. Nous pourrions citer quantité de villes, grandes et petites, en France et à l'étranger, dont les quartiers centraux réclament la pioche des démolisseurs. Combien les villes modernes sont différentes des cités antiques. Et cependant combien peu réalisent le type idéal que réclament les hygiénistes modernes !"
1942Best.-Nr. 578Cambridge and London, Harvard UP / Oxford UP, 1942. First edition. An oblong hardcover book, title and author's names embossed on the front cover and spine, Bradel-style hinges, 31,5 x 23,5 cm, 258 pp. fully illustrated with black and white pictures and maps. Text written on two columns. 15 chapters: Town-Planning or Our Cities and Their Problems, Dwelling as The First Urban Function, Work, Week-End and Vacation Recreation and so on. A manifesto for the reform spirit criticizing the nineteenth-century city as inadequate do massive car use and overcrowding. The author puts forward various ideas: separating various functions throughout spaces, insisting on adequate transportation, verticalization and local zoning (schools, shops, hospitals) as smaller communal units within the city, etc. Published in the midst of the Second World War, this urban planning book criticizes 19th-century cities as "inadequate" and puts forward numerous proposals to adapt them to the automobile and to populations of several million inhabitants. Some of its ideas proved very influencial in many postwar projects.
