About
Guzden is an architect of computational design, focusing on immersive technologies, architectural design education and digital cultural heritage. She holds a PhD in Art Design and Architecture, a MFA in Graphic Design, and BArch from the prestigious Turkish universities of Bilkent and METU. Her interdisciplinary research reached international grounds at MIT, UCLA and TAMU. Holding an associate professorship by the Council of Higher Education of Turkey, she taught courses on computational design, architectural design studio and design theory at both graduate and undergraduate levels. As a Fulbright and Chevening alumni, Guzden has received numerous grants, fellowships and awards for her designs, presentations and publications.
My research explores the intersection of architecture, digital technologies, and cultural heritage. I focus on how immersive and multisensory environments, computational design, and AI-assisted workflows can reshape the ways we document, interpret, and design built environments. Alongside this, I engage with broader questions of digital design culture, from biodigital design and digital fabrication to art and design theory, reflecting my interest in how technological shifts influence architectural practice and knowledge.
