I am currently an undergraduate student in Architecture at Ihsan Doğramacı Bilkent University, Turkey.
Due to the international framework of my studies and Problem Based Learning approach that my university imposes, I look forward to work in an international team and transform problems into challenging projects through critical thinking, creativity and innovativeness. This intership is right for me at this stage of my development process as it fits my educational background, my continuing willingness to learn new things and represents a perfect chance to improve my skills.Furthermore, I am a quick leamer, hard-working, ambitious person, motivated by goal achievements and have a multi-perspective approach towards a situation. Nothing provides me with more satisfaction than contributing to the success of a project.My technical knowledge, conceptual and architectural skills, combined with my enthusiasm and creativity makes me a “must have” intern. Moreover, my international experience working with different people around the world and global mindfulness would be a positive contribution to your organization.
As a result, I am a confident user of the Adobe suite, AutoCad, Rhino, Twinmotion, Blender.

E-CoCITTÀ
In the context of co-housing projects, generally involve a group of individuals or families living in a shared space, and the living arrangements can change over time as people come and go, or as the needs of the community evolve. This requires a level of adaptability and flexibility in the design of the living spaces.
By using Tetris blocks as a metaphor, co-housing projects can be designed with modular living spaces that can be rearranged or combined to suit the changing needs of the community. This can include shared spaces such as kitchens or common areas that can be easily reconfigured, as well as individual living spaces that can be expanded or reduced as needed. The modular design also allows for easy maintenance and renovation, with minimal disruption to the existing living spaces.

site plan
Old Anatolian rural houses were built with mud brick, stone or wood and usually include a central courtyard for socializing and livestock grazing. The courtyards have outdoor features such as fountains, pools, and trees for relaxation and contemplation. The houses are designed to be in harmony with the surrounding landscape and often have a flat roof used for additional outdoor space or drying crops.
Modern buildings differ from old Anatolian houses in terms of materials and ornamentation, with minimalist designs using concrete, glass, and steel. Research on old Anatolian and modern Ankara buildings identifies shared spaces, flat roofs, courtyard-pools, and the use of wood and modern materials to reduce carbon emissions.

Extended Family Units With 3D Tetris Blocks
Tetris blocks have been used as a metaphor to describe the concept of adaptable and flexible living spaces in co-housing projects. The idea behind using Tetris blocks is that they are modular, easy to manipulate, and can be arranged in different ways to fit together efficiently.
The use of Tetris blocks as a metaphor for co-housing projects highlights the importance of flexibility and adaptability in creating living spaces that can evolve with the changing needs of the community. Also, it can absolutely provide various combinations.

Blurry Zenith
Blurry Zenith is both a drama theater and conference hall project, which includes detailed acoustic solutions designed as a term project for the ARCH341 Acoustics and Lighting course. The project aims to position reflective and absorbing panels to achieve required delay times without exceeding height limits, while the pixel concept guides the interior wall design.
The project also explores lighting effects, including changing colors and light beams in the interior and exterior, using different types and colors of wood in the living room and windows in the exterior.

Eskişehir has a culture of shopping streets and open spaces. SliDEnear is a light-technology museum designed to reflect the city’s urban form and linear axes. The semi-open exhibition pavilion located next to the museum creates a strong axis at the riverside and turns it into a powerful cultural and social center.
The museum’s shape and internal circulation were generated by studying the linear street patterns of the city and responding to light conditions with the use of advancements in lighting technology.

The City of Eskişehir plans to use the underutilized parking lot adjacent to the Science Museum as a staging area for events. By incorporating existing resources and making simple changes, the car park can be transformed into a vibrant gathering space for locals to enjoy. An innovative semi-open exhibition pavilion can be built with inert materials incorporated into the roof to create an attractive and engaging landscape for visitors.
The design of the building solves the parking problem by lowering it underground and using endemic plants on the roof to create a sustainable space for people to gather and escape from the hustle and bustle of life. This new center will offer an opportunity for creators and artists to showcase their products and art in a modern environment while connecting with others in the same field.
