She was married in 1787 to Hotin Nak b mc es Sayyid Ahmed Pasha. Hatice was very close to her brother Selim, and played an important role during his reign in 1789 1807 as his influential confidant. She formed a close relationship to the architect Antoine Ignace Melling . At Hatice Sultan s suggestion, Melling was employed as Imperial Architect by Selim III. In 1795 the princess commissioned Melling to design a labyrinth for her palace at Ortak y in the style of the Danish ambassador Baron H bsch s garden. Delighted with the result, she asked Melling to redecorate the palace interior, and subsequently, a completely new neoclassical palace at Defterdarburnu. He also designed clothes and jewellery for her. She employed him to repair her Palace Ne et b d in 1804. She corresponded with him in Turkish written with Latin letters. In 1809, she bought land in companionship with her sister, Beyhan Sultan 1765 1824 , and her cousin Esma Sultana 1778 1848 Esma Sultan 1778 1848 , upon where she had Melling construct the Hatice Sultan Palace . The palace became reputed in all Europe and also led to criticism against the sultan and talked about as a palace of pleasure.
