Villa Interior Architecture & Project Design
in Gölcük
Gölcük, with its Değirmendere shoreline and hillside settlement behind it, is one of Kocaeli's most balanced residential districts — and, through Norse Shipyard, part of the region's marine manufacturing as well. I led the conceptual interior design for the shipyard's NB22 private yacht as Head of Design at Cita Design, covering everything from the owner's stateroom to the spa and bar. On land-based projects the defining condition here is the sea: salt-laden humidity ages metal fittings and timber surfaces faster than expected, making specification a durability decision before a visual one. Along the shore, the seasonal split — open terrace in summer, enclosed volume in winter — demands a genuinely flexible restaurant layout.
