My journey into cultural design began with a background in journalism, where I developed a strong eye for detail, storytelling, and cultural observation. Over time, this perspective naturally evolved into a passion for interior aesthetics and heritage-inspired textiles. I came to believe that rugs are more than decorative objects — they carry atmosphere, memory, and character, shaping the emotional identity of a space.

​

Alongside my journalism education, earning an MBA degree played a significant role in shaping my entrepreneurial mindset. It gave me a deeper understanding of brand development, operations, customer experience, and long-term business strategy. Combining creativity with business structure allowed me to build a brand that values both artistic authenticity and sustainable growth.

​

This vision eventually led to the foundation of Gordion Carpet Ltd., a United Kingdom–based company with production and operational management rooted in Türkiye, a country deeply connected to textile heritage and craftsmanship. Our collections are inspired by old-world textures, timeless interiors, and the imperfect beauty of lived-in spaces. Rather than following short-term trends, we focus on creating rugs that feel layered, collected, and emotionally resonant.

​

Every stage of product development, production coordination, and quality control is carefully managed in Türkiye through trusted production partners. We prioritize durability, washable practicality, soft textures, and timeless vintage aesthetics — combining traditional inspiration with modern functionality for contemporary living.

​

At Gordion Carpet, we believe every rug should tell a story. Our goal is to create pieces that bring warmth, cultural depth, and understated elegance into everyday interiors. Each collection reflects a balance between heritage and modern living, designed for people who appreciate spaces with soul, texture, and authenticity.
