This lovely flat located in Istanbul belongs to a Turkish designer Sefer Caglar, who resides there with his wife and daughter. Apart from an interesting use of materials, there are plenty of amazing pieces of furniture. The overall bohemian atmosphere is even emphasized by the use of framed art on the walls.
So I went a little crazy and bought a couple.. well actually A LOT of books.

my current OBSESSION is Beyoncé
1. Life is but a dream - HBO Documentary
This is honestly the most inspiring documentary I have ever seen and if you havn’t already seen it you should. Like, right now. http://vimeo.com/71639589
To me, Beyoncé is the most inspiring women. She’s so incredibly talented and still so down to earth. She values and is most thankful for what’s truly important to her, family. We could all learn a thing or two from Beyoncé. I feel so often that I am not thankful enough for the amazing things I have in my life. We need to appreciate what we have instead of constantly wanting more and never being satisfied.
2. Beyoncé, self-titled
A mini art feature of several videos, giving a glimpse into the entire visual album project detailing her artistic vision (parts 1 – 5) is crazy good. http://www.beyonce.com/tumblr/video
3. Visual album
Is just ahhmazing. Especially video clips; pretty hurts, drunk in love, partition, jealous, XO, flawless, ok… ALL of them. My favourite lyric has got to be “perfection is a disease of a nation” amen.
