After graduating from the department of graphic design, we know Murat Palta, who also works in various agencies, from his work combining popular culture icons with traditional miniature art. Murat Palta, who draws attention with miniatures of cult films, is acclaimed for his experimental designs that combine traditional Ottoman motifs and contemporary Western cinema. The artist previously designed the album cover of Apple Music's "Top: Turkey" list.
When the store opens customers will have access to all of Apple's most-recent products including its new best iPhone, the iPhone 13, as well as the Apple Watch Series 7, iPad mini 6, and more.
