Yahşibey Workshop – Geray Gençer

Yahşibey Workshop
Transformed Book Project
2015

Yahşibey is a small Aegean
village with a population of
about 200. People mostly raise
cattle and olives. It is situated
at the skirt of a hill, facing the
Mytilini island of Greece.

Yahşibey provides a
provocative atmosphere
of creativity for the young
design students of different
disciplines working enjoyably
together. All we do is talking
and producing design;
creating design problems
and attempting to solve them.

Each summer, during fifteen-
day periods of workshops, we
invite ten best design students
from around the world to Turkey.
We organize their juxtaposition
with established universal masters
of design. They board, cook, clean,
have fun in Yahşibey together, and
of course tackle the design project
the masters specify. At the end of
the term, they present the result
of their joint work and submit
it to the Emre Senan Design
Foundation. Their contribution
to the universal design culture
is then turned into a book.
