Among the many digital tools and websites I’ve built over the years, here are the ones I actively work on and some of my earlier work.

Active Projects

Wordmark

Wordmark began in 2011 as a simple website to make choosing fonts easier. It’s since grown into a tool cherished by designers and creators around the world. Its growth has supported mine, making space for the slower, more reflective work I do today.

Hyperplace

Hyperplace began in 2019 as an experiment with my friend Barış Gümüştaş. We set out to build a place to collect ideas, visually explore them, and see how they come together in new ways. We still maintain it, though we’re not actively developing it now.

Sliding Notes

A personal tool I've been tinkering with since 2020. It helps me revisit my notes, reconnect with old ideas, and uncover new connections. Its multi-column design helps ideas get together side by side, revealing new paths between them.

Archived Projects

Paraşüt

I co-founded Paraşüt in 2014—an online book keeping service for Turkish SME's—where I led design for six years. It grew into Turkey’s leading online bookkeeping platform for small businesses, serving over 10,000 customers before being acquired in 2019.

Cedvel

Created in 2010, Cedvel explored how design tools could live in the browser with the rise of HTML5. Focused on grid systems, it let designers build and experiment with layouts online — an idea that proved ahead of its time.

Musicmap

Designed and developed in 2004 as my graduation project, Musicmap visualized connections between albums using Amazon's "customers also bought" data. It went viral and was selected as a finalist at the SXSW Interactive Festival.

Kimyapti

Built in 2008 to learn Ruby on Rails and explore the new Web 2.0 culture, Kimyapti let creatives share work and credit collaborators. It aimed to become a living map of creative connections, much like Behance in its early days.

Faal

Faal was my personal design studio, where I created websites and identities for artists and designers. The work received international recognition, though I struggled to grow it into a lasting business.
