Hello there :)

I'm a an interior designer. I studied a double degree in MIS (Management Information System) and Fineart now I'm enjoying my time as a full time interior architect in beautiful Istanbul.

I do enjoy also a long walk, meeting new people, cook.

A few random facts about me: I’ve grow up and lived in Damascus, visited as any Syrian (almost) Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey in addition to Dubai and Kuwait. I’ve been living in Istanbul - Turkey for almost 6 years trying to learn the language (unfortunately with no real effort).
I've done some cool web development (designing and programming) before and still there is hidden nerd inside me :)
I do love furniture design and I could speak for hours about a small detail in a chair!

and here is my website also
