Hello, I'm Elif!

I'm an industrial designer and illustrator with 20 years of experience in design.

​

My creative journey began with Noobuu, where I combined the natural beauty of wood, architecture and playful learning to create thoughtfully designed wooden toys. In 2022, Noobuu was selected as a finalist in the Etsy Design Awards.

​

Today, inspired by the places, people and everyday details around me, I explore new creative paths through architectural drawings, house portraits and illustrations.

​

Noobuu Studio brings together my passion for art, illustration and design — a space where every creation tells its own story.
