I founded Mistiklal as a blog recommending spots in the İstiklal Street neighborhood. Over time, it evolved into a full website, where a dedicated team published articles about places and events throughout Istanbul. The user interface, logo, and visual materials were redesigned over the years, embracing bold and colorful elements to reflect the vibrant diversity of İstiklal Street. A unique, blended font captured the area’s eclectic character, making Mistiklal a lively guide to one of Istanbul’s most iconic districts. Though Mistiklal concluded its journey in 2017, its spirit lives on in the memories of its readers and the stories it shared.

The website is still available online at mistiklal.com
