Modern Architecture is a reflection of the sustainable development, inspired by the nature to design interesting spaces for today and for tomorrow that could bring happiness to the people who use it.

and the most important point heart of architecture practice is analytical of clients mentality bcoz they will become our boss of that particular project . 

Stimuler l'innovation par le biomimétisme est l'une de mes passions. Ma règle d'or en matière de design est d'associer profondément la nature. Nous faisons partie de la nature, et l'utilisation de sa simplicité, de sa sensibilité, de sa générosité, de son ingéniosité pour relever les défis auxquels notre humanité est confrontée, peut avoir une contribution bénéfique.

I believe that the proper design of each space improves the quality of the user's life. I have the ability, willingness, to listen and try to understand the viewpoints of others. I’m clear that I want to pursue architecture. Because it will enable me to combine the strongest aspect of my personality, a fascination with functional art and design.

Modern architecture. Urban design, rehabilitation and restiration.

Currently, I am working as a senior lecturer in the Interior Design Department at Raffles College of Higher Education. Before, I worked as an adjunct lecturer at NYIT, Abu Dhabi, and teaching assistant and instructor at Istanbul Technical University (I.T.U) for eleven years. Throughout these experiences, I have been responsible for the courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels. I hold an undergraduate degree in Architecture from ITU . Additionally, I was awarded my Ph.D. by the Department of History of Art at ITU. I completed my Masters' degree in Industrial Design at ITU in 2007. My current research interests lie in a wide range of interior design topics; such as furniture design, adaptive reuse, cinematic space, interior design history, spatial narrative, domestic interiors, cultural aspects, handcrafting, and semiotics. Having an architecture degree allowed me to deal with environmental factors and to understand building structure, technics, and logic. My industrial design master's degree helped me to understand the smaller scale and develop a human-centered design approach.
