Craft312 Studio

I came from design and art based family. My father is an architect and my mother is a painter. I grow up in my father's architectural office and also my mother painting exhibitions and her atelier that which is also our home. Therefore,in my childhood, I always made some architectural models and some paintings in long years. I won 1st degree award in several painting competition in our country in my childhood. I realized that so this backround effected me as being a designer. And I always beign a designer.

Craft312 studio is a design company with a wide range of its understanding on Architecture, Interior Architecture and Landscape. The aim of the continuing design practise is searching for the new materials and production techniques on every project that it has a modern understanding with an unique part in respectful for nature. Craft312 as a design team that is searching for functional and aestetic solutions to users without underestimating the human factors.

It is an adventure of discovery and its also cretaing feelings of ambiance.

I like design spaces which are people who can experience and feel our creations like public spaces.

My graduate project is my favorite design. I wish I will design project like that in the future. It was deconstrictivist Tv studio.

I really feel a little bit stressed and nervous,anxiety. But the design will becoming if I want to it be, I feel more relax.

Before teh society and environment, designer have responsibility for human becsuse human being is make society and enviroment(built). But they have responsibilty for nature enviroment for making society and built enviroment. They have to respect for nature and dont destroy it.

I joined mixed exhibition about interior design field in 2010. I want to hold an exhibition about our completely projects in 10 years.

My child that he is 4 years old is one of the most inspiration in my life.

I dont have any design style.. Because ı dont beleive that the design has a style... It is dangerous for repeating.. My designs are evolving with experimental way.

I live in Ankara/Turkey. In the 70's, the buildings are designed in with Bahaous ecole. Especially Ankara, and also especially our office building. I still affected that kind of modernism.

First of all, we must understand what they want clearly. Then we design buildşng etc., we have make several meetings, and then conclude the project. In apllication process, we will give consultancy in the site.

I think they listen voices coming from insides. Talk the designer and understand how much they understand you.

First of all, I am searching visions in my mind. And then, ı sketch up with freehand drawings, lots of drawings.. If dont draw with my hand, ı cant realize the good design. Then ı transfer skteches to my design team, they draws them in 3d. And I look it up in computer with every details. Change something or evolving...

I am not wake in earlier ( I will be in office 9.30)because I work and think in the night, and sleep late. When ı arrived the office, ı check people works. I check mails and answer them. And then Work. Work. Work......

There is no negative thing become a designer for me. The most positive thing that always working with brain activity.

I usually beleive myself for making decisinons quickly and also beleive decisions which ı made. It makes time consuming..

I am working on a big university project (160.000 m2). This is the most important project in my life now.

Public spaces. Because most amount of people can experince those kind of projects.

I want to work with more big investors and most known brands in the world.

I work as a team. First , I and my partner (my wife) develops the design then transfer to our team.

We work on the big university project in Ankara that called Ipek University. It has 160.000 closed spaces that includes, preparatory school, rectorate, faculty buildings, library, lots of restaurants , film platos etc. It will be completd in 2015.
