My name is Gun Bolukbasi (Gün Bölükbaşı), and I design, research, visualize, analyze, and iterate.
I recently graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) with Honors and won the Seth Stem Furniture Design Award. While studying Industrial Design at RISD, I pursued a concentration in the Theory and History of Art and Design, focusing on the material culture and history of objects, which I believe is fundamentally interlinked with the theory and practice of Industrial Design. My passion for the histories of art and design has always directly informed and advanced my work as a creative.

I'm currently a designer at Roll & Hill, a design-minded furniture and lighting company based in New York. I also collaborate with researchers and engineers from MIT Media Lab AttentivU, designing wearable technology.
