One Empire Two Palaces was written by the author
by starting from the thought that the
"Topkap? and Dolmabahçe Palaces which are the golden links in a 500-year chain in the creation of the Turkish design and art heritage are very unique structures that connect the creative thoughts of the Orient and the
West to each other."
One Empire Two Palaces brings to the present-day
the voices of those who used the great will there of those who designed and produced treasures and of those who experienced successes and failures at the Topkap? Palace. Subsequently while following the traces of the amazing revolution experienced at the Dolmabahçe Palace
it is also making us hear the sounds of the Industrial Revolution. On the other hand what was experienced during the period of construction of
These two palaces did not only remain within
the architectural spaces. They are also showing us that they presented the synthesis of many different design and creativity competitions which complemented each other.

Thus this book is a very short story of this
500-year long course of creativity.
