As the founder of nobonARCHITECTURE and nobonSERVICES, I work on architectural design and events that foster creativity and innovation in the city. I am also the local host and curator of PechaKucha Night, an international event that connects inspiring presenters from various creative fields with curious citizens. With the help of my team, I have organized over 30 events in Izmir, Turkey, featuring more than 230 speakers since 2013. Now we are re-starting PechaKucha Night Malmö, Sweden. I aim to contribute to the development of vibrant and diverse creative communities. I hold a Ph.D. in Architecture from Istanbul Technical University, where I evaluated Izmir's potential as a design city within the UNESCO Creative Cities Network. I am passionate about urban politics and creativity, and I produce artwork in the form of drawings and installations. My artworks have been awarded and exhibited at the Moscow Architecture Biennale and the Bucharest Triennial.
