Featured works

Hi, I’m Mert.
I’ve been designing digital products for a little over 8 years now, moving between web and mobile projects for startups, agencies, and established companies.

What keeps me excited is not just solving problems, but exploring how design can make things feel more human. I enjoy finding the balance between data and emotion, whether that means helping people build healthier habits in a more playful way or turning complex information into clear visual stories.

I recently completed my Master’s in Visual and Experience Design and am now based in Turkey, working with remote and international teams. This period allowed me to step back, experiment, and push my work beyond the usual product cycle.

Outside of projects, I enjoy sketching ideas and exploring new cities and local cultures. These experiences constantly feed back into my design practice. I believe creativity grows when different worlds are allowed to overlap.
