Servet Yüksel — Founder & Director
Servet Yüksel is the founder and directing principal of Sonraki Interior Architecture. Educated in material engineering and industrial product design at Yıldız Technical University and Istanbul Technical University in Turkey, and subsequently at Sheffield Hallam University in the United Kingdom, Servet brings a disciplined, product-informed approach to interior space — one that places equal weight on how things are made and how they are experienced.
Prior to establishing Sonraki, Servet provided design consultancy and project services to international firms — experience that shaped both the studio's working methods and its standards for delivery. He is a registered member of the British Institute of Interior Design (BIID), the UK's leading professional body for interior designers, and is based in London.

ABOUT — SONRAKI INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE
The Studio
Sonraki Interior Architecture was founded in Istanbul in 2014 as a design and build studio committed to delivering interior architecture at the highest level of technical and aesthetic quality. Over the past decade, the studio has grown into an internationally active practice operating across Turkey, the United Kingdom and the Middle East — completing more than 100 projects ranging from private residences and corporate headquarters to healthcare facilities and hospitality venues.
Every project is managed entirely in-house, from initial concept through to final handover. This integrated approach — combining design leadership, technical coordination and on-site implementation under one roof — is the foundation of how Sonraki works and why clients return.
Our Approach
We believe that interior architecture is, at its core, a discipline of making — not just designing. Every decision we take, from spatial planning to material specification to the detail of a bespoke joinery piece, is made with an understanding of how it will be built, how it will age and how it will be used.
This commitment to implementation knowledge — not just design vision — is what distinguishes Sonraki. We do not hand projects over to contractors and step back. We remain present, responsible and accountable from the first meeting to the moment we hand over the keys.
Our clients are individuals, businesses and institutions who understand the value of working with a single trusted studio rather than coordinating between multiple parties. They expect clarity, precision and a result that reflects their ambitions — and that is what we deliver.

Weekly photographic progress reports. Live video site walkthroughs on request at any stage. Approval decisions taken through structured video meetings. Building management approvals, supplier coordination and trade communication handled by the project manager. No requirement for the client to be in Turkey to manage the project.
The Turkey–United Kingdom Corridor
Holding offices in both Istanbul and London works in two directions. For international companies and property owners commissioning work in Turkey: design and implementation under the supervision of a UK-accredited interior designer, to international documentation standards. For clients commissioning work in the United Kingdom: design and implementation on London projects, with custom furniture, joinery and FF&E manufactured in Turkey and shipped to the UK. At comparable quality, Turkish manufacturing typically delivers a 25-40% cost advantage against Western European production.
How We Operate

Pricing is fixed at design freeze and does not change during construction unless scope changes. 48-hour first response. Every project brief receives a response within 48 hours, with comparable past projects and an indicative budget range. 5 working days for a detailed quote.
