At Kadir Has University, I co-designed a Web-GIS platform for historic settlement management as part of a TÜBİTAK-funded research project. I contributed structured photo archives, records, and map layers to ArcGIS-based decision-support dashboards.
For my master’s thesis, “Conservation of Rural Heritage: The Case of Müşküle Rural Settlement,” I surveyed and documented more than 200 traditional rural buildings. I also researched how changes in agricultural policy and production shaped vernacular architecture.
My research examines state architecture and its audiences, restoration as state practice, and transnational mosque architecture. I’ve presented work on adaptive reuse and architectural narratives, and published research on agricultural change and rural heritage.
