Apartman No-26 Hakkımızda
Over time, we began collaborating with inspiring artists and creative minds to undertake larger projects in the fields of art and culture. These projects deserved to be featured on a specially designed platform, far beyond a simple blog. Thus, Apartman No: 26 became a new home on the digital stage for art and culture. Today, along the Istanbul-London-Berlin axis, we tell stories that celebrate the extraordinary impact of creativity on our world by working with the most remarkable creative minds in every field of art – painting, music, photography, cinema, and literature.
Apartman No-26 Hoşgeldin!
At Apartman No: 26, our mission is to mentor and support the creation of new start-ups in the art and culture ecosystem, while increasing creative diversity by featuring voices from various communities. Over the past 16 years, we have worked with many local and international brands and institutions within the technology and digital marketing ecosystem, earning numerous awards along the way. What brings our team together is the belief that diversity leads to better ideas, and we are united by the stories from wide-ranging communities, regardless of age, race, geography, gender, or lifestyle.

Remember, we’re looking for unexpected stories. We love telling stories that expand the definition of creativity and shed light on the complex, magical creative process behind every great idea, rather than the same type of stories everyone else is telling.
