Istanbul Advertising Agency, Web Design & Branding
New Matter is a branding agency working with Istanbul brands from its office in Ataşehir, covering strategy, corporate identity, websites and digital advertising. The team that builds the brand is the team that grows it.
When you choose an advertising agency in Istanbul, the real question is how your brand will stand out in a crowded market. In a city where plenty of businesses doing the same thing sit within a few kilometres of each other, customers check your website, your social accounts and your ads before they decide. If those touchpoints don't match, trust never forms. That is why we start with positioning: we pin down who you are talking to and what you are saying, then build the visual identity and digital channels around that one idea. That is why even a logo or website brief starts as a strategy question.
Istanbul's business life is not concentrated in one place. On the European side there are established districts such as Levent and Maslak; on the Asian side, the Ataşehir–Ümraniye corridor holds office towers, corporate headquarters and the Istanbul Financial Center. Our office sits inside that corridor, in Ataşehir. Working face to face with brands on the Asian side is easy, and with brands on the European side we run the process through online meetings, plus sessions at our office whenever they are needed. Whichever side of the city you are on, it is the clarity of decisions, not the number of meetings, that sets the pace of a project.
What an Istanbul brand needs depends on its scale. A new start-up's first logo and website deserve the same discipline as a corporate identity refresh for a company that has been trading for years. Service businesses usually need a website that earns trust and a consistent way of presenting themselves; retail and consumer brands lean more on social media, campaign visuals and performance advertising. We work out together, in the discovery meeting, which need comes first. Rather than doing everything at once, it is usually healthier to start with the piece that most affects sales and extend the system step by step.
Many Istanbul companies work with a branding agency, a web agency and a digital ads agency separately. Each delivers its own files, but nobody owns the whole. At New Matter, brand strategy, visual identity, web design, social media management, and Google Ads and Meta ads management all sit within one team. The promise made in an ad matches the landing page and the brand voice, and performance data feeds straight into the next design decision. Having a single point of contact saves management time as well.
Our office is in Ataşehir, at Ağaoğlu Mytowerland in Atatürk Mahallesi. This is where we work with Istanbul brands from, and the same team carries each project from start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I look for when choosing an advertising agency in Istanbul?
First, see whether the agency tries to understand your problem: does it ask about your audience, competitors and sales process in the first meeting? Then check that the portfolio work is consistent, not just attractive, and ask whether the delivered files will belong to you. If you also want ads management, agree up front on how reporting will work.
Do you work with companies on the European side?
Yes. Although our office is on the Asian side, in Ataşehir, we work with brands across Istanbul. Most meetings happen online, and for the stages you would rather discuss in person we arrange a session at our office.
Does it make sense to give the website and ads management to the same agency?
Usually, yes. When the team running the ads also knows the landing page and the brand voice, there is no gap between campaign and site, and fixes happen in one place. If you already have a web agency, we can also work on the ads or the identity alone.
What determines how long an identity and website project takes?
Scope decides it: is it just a logo and core identity, or strategy, identity and a website together? We share a written timeline for each step at the proposal stage. How quickly feedback comes back also has a direct effect on the schedule. We generally recommend finishing strategy and identity before web design begins, because that order reduces rework later.
What should I prepare to get a proposal?
A short introduction is enough: what you do, who you sell to, what you want to change, and any existing logo, website or ad accounts. Get in touch through the contact page and we will set up a discovery call, then prepare a proposal that lists the scope item by item.
