- The book examines the Selimiye Mosque within its historical and regional context, the relationship between its founder, Selim II, and Edirne, the architectural journey of Architect Sinan leading up to the Selimiye, and the development process of Ottoman mosque architecture. The architectural dialogue it establishes with Hagia Sophia, its construction phases, structural system, spatial organization, ornamentation, and material usage are analyzed in separate sections. Numerous drawings supporting the analyses have been prepared, particularly to explain the structural design of the building.
