View Larger Image and Additional Photos of SEBNEM BUHARAAbout SEBNEM BUHARA : Born in 1975, Şebnem Buhara studied at Mimar Sinan University Architecture Faculty. She started her career at university in 1998 and continues her own company, Bou Design. Buhara has undertaken many projects that focus on architectural education and ability to use it in design and implementations. The main principle of her design attitude, as creating user-specific, simple and timeless spaces by combining the identity, desires and dreams of their clients with her own professional experiences. In order to continue this cooperation, she uses her own design furnitures and products in her projects. This collection is now exhibited and sold in her corperate brand BOU Art&Design’s Karaköy showroom. Buhara’s main design motto is to create a timeless line with bejeweled details.
Being an architect does not differ from one’s relations with her environment, being a mother, being a friend, being a manager. The way you perceive life and you render it to give it back should be the same no matter which hat you are wearing and wherever you are. So, I assess everything around me through a sense of meaning and value. And while doing so my essential base and criterion is honesty. Honesty and clarity has been the founding of my working and living principles.Because, this is the only way to establish the right relation; whether it is a house or a personal relationship. Due to the nature of creativity, we may be supposed to create “dreams and fantasies”, but I have never kept my hands off “reality”. The reality may not be fancy, ornate and sophisticated but it sure is candid.
