Portrait of Nur Günen

4th-year architecture student at İzmir Demokrasi University exploring scale, atmosphere, and how people, especially children, experience and remember space.

About

I am a 4th-year student in the Architecture Department at İzmir Demokrasi University. I focus on conceptual thinking, spatial composition, and user experience in the architectural design process. In my projects, I develop design decisions through scale, accessibility, and the relationship with public space; in my academic research, I examine how architecture shapes human experience. My academic work on how children perceive and experience space, together with my TÜBİTAK research project, informs my design approach with a research-based perspective. Scale, atmosphere, and spatial perception are central to both my academic work and my design projects. Alongside architectural design, I am interested in digital design, user experience (UI/UX), interaction design, and game experience design. By connecting different disciplines, I aim to develop multifaceted work at the intersection of architecture, technology, and design.
