Tasarım Bilkent Winds Up This Week
The third "Tasarım Bilkent" (Design Bilkent) event, organized by the Design and Architecture Society, has been taking place this month. During the event, experts active in design, architecture and related areas have presented lectures, seminars and workshops.
On April 1, the opening day of Tasarım Bilkent, Rector Abdullah Atalar and the dean of the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture, Prof. Bülent Özgüç, participated in a panel at which issues relating to FADA were discussed by students and department chairs.
Throughout the week students had a chance to listen to and meet with successful and well-known professionals and artists. They included architects Cengiz Bektaş and Süleyman Akkaş, painter Fatih Kızılcan, urban planners Selami Demiralp and Oktan Nalbantoğlu and representatives of graphic design agency Bravoİstanbul and Cediot Game Studios.
The final session is to take place on Wednesday, April 17. It will feature Stefano D'Anna, author of "The School for Gods" and founder of the program "Future Leaders for the World," and will include time for conversation and a book signing.
The Design and Architecture Society is already looking forward to the fourth Tasarım Bilkent event next year, and welcomes all new volunteers and all suggestions.
