Originally from Turkey, Mesve has lived abroad most of her life. She spent her childhood in London, and has been a New Yorker for the past seven years. She received her BA in Art History, Studio Art and French here at NYU. Her interest in design was confirmed while interning in MOMA’s architecture and design department-an experience which led her to pursue industrial design at Pratt. Mesve completed her master’s degree in May 2006 and is currently living and working in New York City.
