Another designer and textile enthusiast who really gets around is
Zak Profera. He tells me that a trip to the
Sadberk Hanim museum up near the Black Sea -- a museum visit prompted by a post on
Ottoman embroidery spied here -- specifically inspired one of the designs in his soon-to-launch made-in-the-U.S.A. fabric collection aptly titled
Haz, the Turkish word for enchantment. Next week we'll peek at the latest deftly-colored patterns offered by his company Zak + Fox.
For now, look at how artist
Vicky Molinelli captured Zak's trek through the region. The illustration "is meant to gesture the
Sirkeci Terminal in Istanbul, where the Orient Express once ended," he explains.
