House of Usher

December 2023


This short video reimagines Edgar Allan Poe's gothic masterpiece "The Fall of the House of Usher" through the lens of contemporary design education, creating a unique parallel between the psychological decay depicted in Poe's narrative and the creative struggles experienced as a design student at Özyeğin University's Faculty of Architecture and Design.

The video becomes a mirror for the design student experience—the late nights in studio, the pressure of critique, the moments of breakthrough and breakdown that define the journey toward becoming a designer. Like the House of Usher, the design studio becomes a character in its own right, witnessing the transformation of its inhabitants.
