ABOUT ME
After graduating from Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University / Istanbul with a bachelor's degree in interior architecture, I completed my master's degree in furniture design at Aalto University / Helsinki with my thesis "Design for Modularity". I exhibited my works at various fairs in Istanbul, Tokyo, Helsinki and Stockholm.
I believe all branches of design are inseparable and in all its aspects, design should aim to produce high-quality and long-lasting solutions, making our daily life more pleasant and comfortable. In my work while aiming for functionality and environmental sensitivity, I embrace human-centered design approaches.
I have worked for companies as product design lead for many years,
now I continue my design practices under my own brand,
Super Basic Me - Sbm Brand.
About My Design
I like to work with the concepts of modularity and diversity while targeting minimal and environmentally-friendly design products. I believe in design to provide simple and long-lasting solutions to create better living conditions for everyone in their daily lives.
