People
Rıza Tansu
Born in Istanbul, September 1961, Tansu was raised in Ankara and attended to Ankara Koleji between 1967-1978. In high school years he entertained himself during boring classes by drawing cars, boats and cartoons of his teachers.
After graduating from the METU, Department of Industrial Design, Tansu moved back to Istanbul and has lived in the city of two continents since then.
Ozan Ozkusaksiz
Born in Adana and grew up watching tug boats, Ozan weaved his life between imaginary dimensions, alphabets, spaceships and dreams. After graduating from Middle East Technical University, Department of Industrial Design, Ozan met Tansu and started working on the closest thing possible to spaceships: yachts. He also holds a Master’s degree on Industrial Design with the thesis titled “Management of Custom Yacht Design Process”.
Mehmet Kindi
1981 born, Antalian, with a fashionably big head. Headed to METU Industrial Design by an invisible hand. A mediterranean-spirited summer freak, thus, quite content with yachts in his head. Generally wins in Heads or Tails.
Besides getting a master’s degree in Industrial Design, he boosted the excitement of designing through several contests like Yatas Furniture Contest (muno sofa, 2005, 2nd prize); Incheon Design Fair (munszu street light, 2005, special selection); Bombay Sapphire Glass Design Contest (bobo, 2006, 4th prize); Mosder Furniture Contest (suza sofa, 2006, 1st prize); Aysad Lift Design Contest (tiel interface, 2007, 1st prize); and Mosder Furniture Contest (birlik sofa, 2007, honorary mention). "Thanks to the encouraging Tansu habitat", he adds.
Hanna Fristedt
Hanna grew up in a coastal town in south of Sweden, and has ever since been strongly addicted to the sea. With a basis in art and photography studies combined with a lot of traveling, Hanna moved on to get a degree in industrial design in University of Gotland - where she grew a great interest for yacht design. After a few years of freelancing Sweden again gave her itchy feet, and she now finds herself being the newest member of the Tansu Design Team.
Ercan Koca
Attending college as a draftsman student, Koca, soon discovered that he was more interested in interior design, and switched to a major in Interior Design Department where he graduated with highest GPA and continued teaching interior design and furniture production. Meanwhile he worked on several yacht interior projects before he joined the Tansu Team. Very experienced in workshop drawings and joinery details, always thinking in milimeters, no craftsman in the workshop would oppose this "JeanReno-esque" big guy's blueprints.
