Hi everyone!

I am Gökalp, I completed my Bachelor’s degree at Yasar University in Turkey, graduating as the top student of the Architecture Department. During my studies, I spent a semester at ARCHIP in Prague as an Erasmus+ student, where I was honored with the "Best Studio Project" award. Following my graduation, I worked as a professional architect at various firms in Turkey, gaining extensive experience in everything from design development and technical detailing to site supervision and visualization.
My design approach combines narrative-driven thinking with spatial experimentation, supported by digital tools and research-led processes. To date, I have participated in numerous architectural competitions both individually and as part of various teams. My work has been recognized with Honorable Mentions in international competitions like "Re-Using Barcelona Rooftops" and "Kingspan Microhome," alongside several national awards.
