The outstanding universal value of Istanbul resides in its unique integration of architectural masterpieces that reflect the meeting of Europe and Asia over many centuries, and in its incomparable skyline formed not only by the creative genius of Byzantine and Ottoman architects but also its buildings reflect the various culture and empires that have ruled its predecessors. Genoese, Roman, and even Greek forms of architecture remain visible in Istanbul alongside their Ottoman counterparts.
İstanbul Deko type project has been designed by using common theoretical base of architecture and typography. various decorative details from the city’s historical structures have been combined in letter forms in order to present the multicultural heritage of İstanbul and architectural diversity of its' history.
