Impact of Biophilic Design
on Cognitive Function. In Small Living Spaces.

Design Statement: I believe space is never neutral. Every built environment either supports or depletes its inhabitants, and in an era of rapid urbanization and high-density living, this responsibility has never been more important. My practice sits at the intersection of architecture, interior design, and environmental psychology. Trained across Istanbul, Pakistan, and the UK, I understand design as the shaping of lived experience. The most meaningful question is not only how a space looks, but how it makes people feel. This belief is expressed through Arcoran, my thesis project: a biophilic redesign of a high-rise residential floor in Istanbul. Research anchors my thinking, while sustainability and craft remain central to my design process. Currently working at Murat Tabanlıoğlu Architects, I carry an awareness that every space holds responsibility toward the person inside it. Architecture, at its finest, is empathy made spatial.
