Over 15+ years, I’ve led concept-to-construction delivery across residential, hospitality, and mixed-use projects, including urban redevelopment initiatives and the design documentation of a 50-story residential high-rise. I bridge design and engineering through advanced Revit and Grasshopper automation, ISO 19650-aligned BIM coordination, and building performance analysis. In my recent work, I coordinated wind tunnel testing with RWDI London and developed parametric tools that significantly reduced facade design time and on-site manufacturing cost—so projects move faster, with tighter coordination and better performance outcomes.…I’m EFE ONER, a senior project architect specializing in high-rise architecture, BIM workflows, and computational design.

Work Experience

Senior Project Architect | BIM & Computational Design at Izmir Metropolitan Municipality

December 6, 2020 - Present

Led architectural design, detailing, and construction documentation for a 50-story residential high-rise as project lead architect. Coordinated wind tunnel testing with RWDI London and applied results to precast facade and structural decisions, improving delivery and reducing cost by 10–15%. Developed a Grasshopper-based parametric workflow for floor-by-floor variable precast facade cladding, cutting facade design time by 60% and on-site manufacturing cost by 15%. Built Revit components from parametric facade assemblies using Rhino.Inside.Revit to generate point-connection details and support high-precision installation on site. Implemented a Revit-based BIM workflow with standardized unit elements across multiple block types and phases, reducing scheduled effort by 35% for upcoming phases while producing reusable documentation and template libraries.

Project Architect | BIM Lead at Izmir Metropolitan Municipality

April 1, 2016 - December 1, 2020

Led junior architects across full design phases for 22 residential and commercial blocks within urban redevelopment areas, delivering proposals, schematic design, and construction drawings on schedule. Oversaw construction of 17 of the 22 blocks and revised BIM implementation plans, improving planning, scheduling, and interdisciplinary coordination by 15% and bringing delivery dates forward. Created a terrain modeling workflow in Rhinoceros using point cloud and topographic contour data with Revit integration, producing smaller files (~40% smaller) while preserving aerial-photo accuracy across neighborhood-scale projects.

Architect

January 1, 2013 - April 1, 2016

Designed low-income multi-family residential blocks with sustainable water management and thermal comfort solutions for urban redevelopment areas. Collaborated with the Department of Climate Change on the Green City Action Plan (settlements section), helping shape new urban resilience design standards for redevelopment zones.

Architect | Designer at ODEION Architecture and Interior Design

June 1, 2010 - December 1, 2012

Led architectural work for the SPA and recreational areas of two hotel projects for an international hotel chain, taking concept drawings through to construction and improving construction efficiency by 15% while delivering on time. Produced luxury design proposals for the MENA region, supporting project concepts progressing toward construction.

Architect | 3D Designer at TABANLIOGLU Architects

June 1, 2008 - January 1, 2010

Worked on flagship design teams for Istanbul Sapphire Tower (Europe's tallest residential building until 2012), Forum Marmara (Europe's second-largest shopping mall in 2011), and Asmacati Shopping Mall; produced drawings and renderings, and supported 10+ international design proposals through bidding and tender.
