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 like finding the balance between data and emotion, whether that’s helping people track their health in a more playful way, or turning raw numbers into visual stories.

Right now I’m based in Potsdam, Germany, where I’m doing my Master’s in Visual and Experience Design. It’s a chance for me to step back, experiment, and push my work beyond the usual product cycle.

Outside of projects, I enjoy sketching out ideas, exploring new cities and markets. All of these feed back into my design work. I believe creativity grows when you let different worlds overlap.
