Résumé:

In November 2015, Turkishceramics and the Architects' journal took a group of British architects to Istanbul and Edirne on a research trip to study the work of Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan. The trip has resulted in a fascinating book that focuses on Sinan's mastery of the art of building, from his use of ceramics to his designs of mosque complexes and urban infrastructure. An exhibition of the work followed in May 2016.
