CROSS-SECTORAL DIALOGUE
DESIGNHUB-IST
Located inside the grounds of Kadir Has University, the DESIGNHUB-IST Design, Education, and Application Centre is an active organization committed to developing projects, services, and applications that bring significant value to Istanbul's design scene.
In keeping with our primary goal of elevating the status of creative industries in the country's design sector, the DESIGNHUB-IST operates as a physical hub as well as a digital platform, providing a range of services to businesses engaged in design-related activities, particularly those developing into design hubs, mostly in Istanbul. Working in the more general field of interior design, our main goal is to support the development of high-end designs in areas like lighting, acoustics, and evidence-based/user-oriented design.
By means of our center, which serves as a platform for cooperative design research between academic institutions, government agencies, and the commercial sector, we aim to promote practical projects and knowledge sharing, promoting multidisciplinary service models. By working together, we hope to improve the nation's service delivery system and quality of life while meeting a range of needs.
