About the Work

The Turquoise Coast, also known as the Turkish Riviera, boasts over 600 miles of immaculate coastline along the warm Aegean and Mediterranean seas, stunning mountain scenery, and rich mythology and folklore. This unique destination, featuring two of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Temple of Artemis and the ruins of the Mausoleum of Maussollos, has captured the imagination of travelers for centuries. According to legend, even Mark Antony bestowed the spectacular stretch of coast as a wedding gift to Cleopatra. In this book, Oliver Pilcher’s lens captures the alluring shades of blue that characterize the region, beckoning readers with wanderlust to embark on a journey through its dreamy yacht life. Personal accounts from notable admirers of the area, such as Tommy Hilfiger, Mert Alas, Chiara Ferragni, and Mica Ertegun, are also included in the book.

About the Author

Nevbahar Koç, who grew up in Istanbul along the Bosphorus, pursued her higher education in fine arts from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Her love for her city led her to publish her first book, Bosphorus Private, in collaboration with Assouline. Her latest project is an exploration of the Turkish Coast, where she expresses her love for art, design, photography and her country.

Irem Kınay, who shares Nevbahar's passion for art and books, collaborated with Assouline on various books, including The Grand Bazaar Istanbul, The Light of Istanbul, Sultans, Ottoman Chic, and Bosphorus Private. She is also responsible for launching the first Assouline boutique in Istanbul, offering a wide range of titles and carefully selected accessories for elegant libraries.

Oliver Pilcher, originally from Scotland, graduated in sculpture from the Edinburgh College of Art before starting his photography career in New York City. He has been a contributing photographer at Condé Nast Traveler for over a decade and has traveled extensively to shoot for some of the world's leading brands. Currently, he divides his time between New York and Costa Rica with his wife and four children.

"Assouline is more than a publishing house, it is a lifestyle brand."
