Other organizations

Similar to ETMK, graphic designers and fashion designers have their own professional organizations, the GMK (Grafikerler Meslek Kuruluşu) and MTD (Moda Tasarımcıları Derneği) respectively. None of these professional organizations have a legal status like the Chamber of Architects and Interior Architects (Mimarlar Odası and İç Mimarlar Odası in Turkish) which have regulatory power over the work of architects and interior architects in Turkey.

 

From time to time, Turkish designers raise the problem of not having a regulatory body for industrial design services. But so far, these concerns have not been turned into solution proposals
