From the first line to detailed finishes.
I work with a sculptor's hands and an architect's head, and I stay with a project from the first sketch all the way to the finished room. I care about building gently, and I'm always curious about a new tool worth learning.
I think in material and light, and I genuinely like getting my hands dirty: from the first pencil mark to the last screw on site.
I started out in sculpture and then interior architecture at Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University, one of Turkey's best known art schools. That training stuck with me, so I still look at every project the way a maker would.
Whether it's a spatial concept, supervising a site or laying out a photovoltaic array, I like to follow a project the whole way through, from the first sketch to the finished form, and I want to be there on site when it actually gets built.
Building in a way that's kinder to the planet matters a lot to me, and I'm always picking up new tools, from classic CAD and 3D work in Blender to AI in the design process. These days I live just outside Munich, looking for a team where creativity, care and a real sense of ownership still count.

One designer, many trades.
I trained as a sculptor and work as an interior architect, and I'm just as at home on the technical side of building: ecology, energy, and the new wave of AI tools.
Sustainable & passive building
Adapting and developing patented ecological building elements, with standards for low impact production, all the way from the first material choice to a building that actually breathes.
Solar & photovoltaics
Laying out and optimising PV systems in 3D with PVSol: careful roof surveys, better yield, and on site supervision that runs from intake right through to handover.
AI-assisted design
I bring AI into the creative process with ChatGPT, Claude and Claude Code, including AI-driven Blender workflows, so I can get from an idea to a render faster and with real intent behind it.
3D & visualisation
Turning concepts into images people can actually feel: modelling and rendering in Blender and 3ds Max, then finishing in Photoshop.
Project & site management
2D documentation in AutoCAD, plan approvals and quality control, procurement, scheduling, permits and funding applications, plus coordinating the people who build it.
Hand & craft
Sculpture, furniture design and drawing are still the core for me. Working by hand keeps the digital side honest and gives every detail a reason to be there.
