A COLLABORATION WITH

Alavya Hotel

A visual celebration of this award winning hotel situated in the beautiful village of Alacati on the Aegean Coast of Turkey. Commissioned by the owner Rana Erkan Tabanca the Alavya book aims to illustrate the philosophy and approach to life that is both unique and personal to the Hotel - creativity, connection, sustainability and above all else love.

The book illustrates not only the hotels food, design and interiors but also offers a glimpse into the team who help make Alavya so special. Beyond the hotel the book explores the bustling markets and streets of Alacati as well as the finer elements of the Tabanca home in Bodrum where the themes and style of Alavya began.
