Emin Demirci

Statement

As a kid, I was aware that design is another language that I had to speak. It became my mission to do what it took to learn these lessons and speak the language where I am most at home.

I find inexplicable joy in creating novel and unique ideas with impeccable execution and a strong eye for aesthetics.

For me, design has always been a longing for an ideal that will never be satisfied. I am always working, refining, and building an ultimate methodology that will apply to any creation and bring me closer to this perceived ideal. As I continue to evolve and grow, this ideal keeps changing and I will continue to chase it, forever.

With my time on this planet, I would like to surprise people and show them something that opens their eyes in a new way.
