Hi!
My name is Eda Karaböcek, a Spatial Conceptual Designer and Researcher based in The Hague, Netherlands. I strongly believe that creativity starts from the idea that noting is impossible. With this mentality I step into a new project, starting from research and concepts, the results of the projects leaves ''space'' for everyone's own interpretation to be admired through different perspectives and ones that's close to yourself.
I think that every spatial design we create should consider adapting to the existing conditions and learn from natural forms and processes. Evaluating on how the space affects the personal and social environment of society and on how the societies actions and movement affects the space. This interaction is the forming point of the space becoming alive, a space filled with feelings. Therefore, space is the essential element in enhancing the environment we live in.
I strive on creating conscious designs to enhance social awareness and to open up conversations. My spatial designs reflect sensitive and challenging ideas for everyday obstacles. Creating a mix of speculation, innovation and criticism. The projects range from models, visualizations to interactive (digital) experiences and storytelling.
