Hi, I'm Pinar! I'm graphic designer and visual artist. I have a degree in Visual Communication Design from Ankara Haci Bayram Veli University, one of the top schools for this field in Turkey. For the last couple of years, I worked as a Graphic Designer for a very busy creative agency in the UK. My role primarily focused on client-facing projects. I successfully delivered several corporate identity projects in line with client brand guidelines and requirements, often under tight deadlines while managing multiple projects simultaneously. I completed a wide range of creative work across both digital and print, including website design, brand identity, logo design, posters, leaflets, e-mailers, digital newsletters and social media campaigns. I also designed large-scale technical documents with clarity and precision, as well as large-format booth print materials, and managed the full process of preparing print-ready files. I played active roles throughout the entire creative processes, from initial brief to final delivery. This included developing campaign logos, slogans and taglines, sourcing visuals, and overseeing each stage of production across both digital and print platforms. I am also a visual artist. In my art projects, I use photography as a material of explaining myself. My works were exhibited in various galleries in Ankara, Istanbul and Cardiff. I have designed 3 different photobooks containing my art projects. I am experienced in Adobe Creative Suit, most notably in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD and Premiere. I use those applications extensively both professionally and for my personal projects.
