About me
A visual communication designer working mainly on social posters, branding, editorial design, an exlibris artist, as well as a design educator at Sakarya University since 2012.
Received bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Uludag University, doctor of fine arts from Hacettepe University. My works have been exhibited at global design events such as the Golden Bee Global Biennale of Graphic Design, Shanghai Biennial of Asia Graphic Design, Ecuador Poster Biennial, Warsaw Poster Biennial, MadridGráfica, and ex-libris events held in Spain, Poland, Bulgaria, China, etc.
As part of my research into vernacular typography, I've studied the local letterforms in the Turkish cities of Bursa and Sakarya and the sign painters who made them. I am also a writer and an editor publishing the monthly newsletter of the Turkish Typography Society since 2019.
