The Works of Architect Sinan in Istanbul: Complexes, Mosques, and Prayer Rooms

The Works of Architect Sinan in Istanbul: Complexes, Mosques, and Prayer Rooms

This is an academic masterpiece written by Prof. Dr. Aptullah Kuran, one of Türkiye's most respected architectural historians, and published by the Turkish Historical Society Publications. 

The book documents the religious and social architectural heritage that Architect Sinan contributed to the Ottoman capital Istanbul using a scientific method. Instead of a random listing, it examines the spatial arrangements and developmental processes of the structures. 

This work is part of a historical continuity rooted in the extensive research on Architect Sinan initiated at the Turkish Historical Society in 1935 under the instruction of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Through meticulous archival research and architectural drawings, Aptullah Kuran presents the spatial logic of Sinan's masterpieces in a universally understandable language for both architects and history enthusiasts.
