The Turkish designer integrates design, art and crafts. Play with common materials and existing techniques to understand their potential and thus develop a new contemporary expression.

Play with common materials and existing techniques to fully understand their potential to develop new contemporary expression. The experimental process results from the development and adaptation of skills, suggesting new and authentic design ideas.
