Located in Yalıkavak, Bodrum, The Bodrum EDITION has unveiled renewed interiors for its three restaurants, redesigned by URBANJOBS. İstanbul, Türkiye At the core of the project was the intention to establish a design language that respects the calm and refined identity of EDITION Hotels. As a brand defined by a globally consistent aesthetic approach, every renovation decision needed to remain in dialogue with this identity. At the same time, each of the three restaurants came with a different chef, a different culinary tradition and different physical constraints.
The design strategy aimed to balance these two layers: brand continuity and the individuality of each restaurant. As a result, the three venues coexist under the same roof while remaining distinctly different from one another — one shaped by the calm rhythm of the Aegean, another by the warmth of Italy, and the third by Anatolian culinary culture.
Osman Sezener is regarded as one of Turkiye’s leading Michelin-starred chefs. Kitchen becomes a physical reflection of his culinary philosophy: a cuisine rooted in the Aegean and shaped by the sea.
The design language is restrained and precise. Defined by white stone, light wood and a wide colonnade opening towards the sea, the space intentionally blurs the boundary between indoors and outdoors. While the colonnade aligns closely with EDITION’s quiet corporate identity, it also directly reflects the chef’s Mediterranean approach. At sunset, the Aegean view unfolding through the columns becomes central to the space.
