Zeynep Fadillioğlu Designs Interior of Şakirin Mosquea Mosque
/Zeynep Fadillioğlu, an elegant Turkish interior designer, is the first woman to design the interior of the recently opened Şakirin Mosquea mosque in Istanbul. Her achievement is a first in mosque architecture.
Fadillioğlu told the Hürriyet Daily News, an English-language newspaper in Istanbul, she relished the chance to design the mosque, “especially at a time when so much is being discussed wrongly: of Islam not allowing women to have equal rights….”.
