Book Design
Made in Izmir

Prepared to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Izmir Association of Independent Architects, this book gives equal space to the productions of architectural offices. Published bilingually in Turkish and English, the book presents 40 buildings thematically under the headings of light, trace, texture, negotiation, and transformation.

Vertical lines reminiscent of scale markers take center stage in the page design. While the themes are defined by different colors, the cover design pays homage to architects’ passion for black, standing in contrast to this colorful structure. With thanks to dear @izmirsmd, the publication committee, and my editors.
