Go House

A home where East meets West — naturally. ⁠ In the peaceful coastal village of Riva, Istanbul, we designed a young family home that blends Japanese minimalism with Western warmth to create a serene, functional, and health-conscious living space. Designed with natural, non-toxic materials throughout, this is a space where calm and vitality coexist.

Open-plan interiors are shaped by clean lines, natural light, and uncluttered layouts inspired by Japanese simplicity. Woven throughout are warm, human touches: cozy furniture, soft lighting, and vibrant accents that invite connection and comfort.

At the heart of the home is a family-friendly kitchen where natural materials take center stage. A wicker ceiling, oak cabinetry, marble flooring, and engineered ceramic countertops come together to support mindful living — and joyful, everyday rituals.

The master bedroom in this Riva home offers a serene retreat, blending soft, natural textures and a calming palette to promote rest and clarity. Large windows frame the surrounding landscape, reinforcing a quiet connection to nature. In the child’s room, thoughtful design meets playful spirit — low furniture, flexible storage, and non-toxic materials create a safe, nurturing space that supports creativity, growth, and restful sleep.
