The inaugural issue of Tersane Journal presents a wide spectrum of content, ranging from art and cultural vibrancy along the Golden Horn to contemporary fashion editorials, gastronomy, design, wellness, and modern neighborhood culture. Exhibitions coming to life at Tersane Istanbul, artist encounters, and open-air installations are explored alongside evolving urban socializing habits and design-led discoveries. Interviews from the culinary world, current fashion and style features, fresh ways of exploring the city, and the shifting language of wellness also stand out among the topics featured in the first issue. In this way, Tersane Journal invites readers to engage with Tersane Istanbul not simply as a location, but through the dialogues connecting the Golden Horn’s history with its present, urban culture, and contemporary daily practices.

From the Golden Horn's Heritage to Today’s Urban Culture

One of the foundational premises of Tersane Journal is to examine the multilayered memory of the Golden Horn in tandem with modern Istanbul. Traces of the past stand side by side with their contemporary counterparts in art, design, gastronomy, and daily life. While chronicling the emerging urban life around Tersane Istanbul, the magazine preserves the Golden Horn's historical and cultural context as a natural part of the narrative. Rather than treating history as nostalgic decor, it approaches it as a living component of an urban memory that continues to evolve today. Where Can You Get Tersane Journal? Tersane Journal is provided complimentarily to guests of Tersane Istanbul. You can pick up the first issue at the information desks across Tersane Istanbul and explore stories spanning art, fashion, gastronomy, wellness, and city culture from the Golden Horn.
