TILE DESIGN


”Finding Home” - Hand-painted  Tile Design


"Finding Home" is a tribute to the idea that home exists wherever we choose to cultivate it, and to the people who carry their sense of belonging wherever life takes them. It honors the feelings, spaces, and mutual connections we celebrate. This semi-personal project merges my love for art, culture, and storytelling. Through my travels and immersion in diverse traditions, I’ve come to realize that the concept of home transcends physical spaces. It is a mosaic of cherished memories, familiar scents, significant words, and heartfelt emotions we carry within us. The tile designs blend modern and traditional architecture with Mediterranean beauty, deeply influenced by my Turkish and Balkan heritage.

Each tile in this collection is lovingly hand-painted on a 4”x4” or 4.25”x4.25” ceramic surface, with intricate details and finished with a glossy glaze. These pieces reflect my passion for creating art that resonates with personal stories and universal experiences.

For me, designing these tiles is more than a creative endeavor; it’s a joyful escape—a means of self-expression beyond the structured world of architecture. It’s a celebration of color, form, and the deep connections that unite us all.
