About
We believe that a space cannot develop a memory until people begin to inhabit and experience it. That is why we design and create spaces without memory—spaces open to change, use, and transformation over time.
We hope that, as people live in them, interact with them, and leave their traces, these spaces will gradually develop their own memory.
For fast and practical design solutions, please get in touch with us.
A studio that stays with the building.
Founded in 2011 in Istanbul, Design Without Memories works across architecture, interiors and construction — one team, responsible for a project from first sketch to the day the keys are handed over.

How we work
Design and construction, one team
Splitting design from construction is the single biggest source of budget overruns and diluted intent on a building project. Keeping both under one roof means the person who drew a detail is the person who can explain it to a contractor on site — and change it on the spot if the site calls for it.
Where we work
Based in Istanbul, working nationwide
Our studio is in Levent, Istanbul. We take on projects across Istanbul, Bodrum, Izmir, Ankara, Antalya, and consider other regions of Türkiye on a case-by-case basis. Türkiye genelinde mimari tasarım ve uygulama.
