Architect
ISTANBUL
Summary
Beginning my architectural journey within a family deeply rooted in the profession, it was during high school that a fascination with design blossomed. Recognizing my talent for sketching, the university appointed me as a professor to teach architectural sketching—an opportunity that ignited a passion for sharing knowledge. Joining Telvar Architecture in 2007, founded by my elder brother, instilled the value of teamwork and collaboration from the outset. Simultaneously, our family ventured into education, establishing a renowned architecture school in Iran and authoring over 60 influential books that have left a lasting impact on architectural academia. Committed to continuous learning and innovation, efforts were made to stay updated with the latest architectural trends. In 2017, driven by a thirst for cultural exploration, the decision was made to migrate, eager to immerse in diverse architectural landscapes and broaden horizons. The tenure at Emre Arolat Architecture, guided by Emre Arolat, proved a remarkable opportunity for professional growth. His unwavering encouragement and mentorship consistently pushed to exceed expectations and strive for excellence. Through private discussions, invaluable insights were imparted that significantly contributed to development as a designer. Many of the projects in which a pivotal role was played garnered international acclaim, earning prestigious awards. The portfolio extended globally, encompassing diverse projects and numerous competitions around the globe.
