about

 

Hi, I’m Sila!

I operate at the intersection of design, systems, and strategy.

With 8+ years of experience across brands like Porsche eBike Performance, Vestel, and Sharp, I’ve led projects that translate emerging technologies into meaningful, market-ready products.

But I don’t just design objects.

I design direction.

I build clarity in complex environments aligning teams, defining structure, and turning scattered ideas into coherent systems.

As the co-founder of Co-hub, I focus on shaping collaborative frameworks for designers; not just community, but strategic alignment around real-world challenges.

I mentor emerging designers on ADPList, helping them move beyond aesthetics into structured thinking and confident decision-making.

If you’re building something ambitious and need a strategic creative lead who can connect vision with execution; let’s talk!
