About me

My name is Mehmed Arif, born in Istanbul in 1994.

I completed my high school education in Istanbul and then pursued an associate degree in Furniture Decoration and Interior Design at Akdeniz University, graduating in 2015.

I later went on to earn a Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design at Beykent University, Istanbul, with a scholarship, graduating in 2020. I balanced my education with work experience, which allowed me to gain valuable industry insights early on.

In 2020, I moved to London to pursue a Master's degree at the University of the West of Scotland, London Campus. After Brexit, I briefly returned to Turkey before relocating to Germany in May 2022 due to a job offer.

After working in Germany for a while, I furthered my expertise by completing an advanced UX/UI design course and graduated successfully.

I am currently continuing my career as an Industrial and UX/UI Designer in Berlin.
