5 Senses of Istanbul"5 Senses of Istanbul" is an experimental design project, conducted in Advanced Design Project course of the postgraduate ID program of Istanbul Technical University (ITU) in spring 2006.
The project, which was inspired by the documentary movie "Crossing the Bridge: Sound of Istanbul" (Dr. Fatih Akin, 2005) was directed by Turkish designer, Aziz Sariyer and the staff of ITU Dept. of Industrial Product Design.
Designers such as Inci Mutlu, Tanju Ozelgin and Otto Von Busch also contributed to the project in different stages.
Twenty-two students took part in the "5 Senses of Istanbul" project for 4 months.
The final prototypes of the chosen design proposals will be built with the support of a leading Turkish furniture company during 2006 fall semester.
With this project ITU has been invited again (2nd time in 3 years) to SaloneSatellite (Salone del Mobile), and "5 Senses of Istanbul" will be exhibited in SaloneSatellite during the Milan Design Week 2007.
