In Pursuit of Novel Form – Volkan Alkanoglu


Our work is interested in re-appropriating paradigms of design typology through creative interventions. We want to inspire a discourse on how we occupy public domain by forming opportunities for visual effects and social inhabitation. Part of this mission to investigate, impact and transform the built environment, is to implement innovative techniques, new methods of make and sustainable systems.
