ABOUT
icollectist is an Istanbul-based multidisciplinary design practice founded by Yunus Emre Kara and Sinemis Sarıgül Kara.
Working across architecture, interiors, objects, and spatial experiences, the studio approaches design as an exploration of the relationship between people, space, and the conditions that shape everyday life.
Our work is informed by research, observation, and an ongoing dialogue between disciplines. Rather than pursuing a predetermined visual language, we seek responses that emerge from the specific context, purpose, and possibilities of each project.
From healthcare and hospitality to cultural and commercial environments, icollectist brings together spatial thinking, technical knowledge, and an interest in how design can influence the way we live, interact, and experience the world.
RECOGNITION & PRESS
Our founders bring a history of internationally recognised work, publications, exhibitions, and contributions to architectural discourse.
