Koza Chair

Koza Chair

Koza, meaning cocoon, is a chair shaped by its own definition. Emerging from ideas of protection and community, it translates these values into form.

Koza is a heavy, strong, almost brutalist sculpture. Veneered using two distinct parts of the same walnut tree: solid walnut and walnut burl.

The burl elements, positioned on the sides and the back of the chair, function like a protective shell, an exoskeleton that surrounds the body. With its dense, complex, and intertwined grain, the burl represents one’s roots and community, offering strength, shelter, and a sense of belonging.

In contrast, the seating surface is made from solid walnut veneer, the softer “belly” of the tree. This inner core provides warmth and comfort through its smooth texture and calm, repetitive grain lines. It is the place of rest, protected, grounded, and embraced by the structure around it.

Tuzluk Side Table

Tuzluk Side Table

Continuing the same DNA as the shelving system, TUZLUK SIDE TABLE is also inspired by the familiar geometry of the paper fortune teller.
The project translates this playful mechanism into a side table composed of precisely cut and folded metal sheets. Through a careful interplay of cuts, negative and positive surfaces, the design unfolds in space, creating shifting compositions of planes and volumes that evolve depending on the viewer’s perspective.

Crafted from a single sheet of stainless steel, the table is laser-cut and then pressed into form. With no additional materials or structural elements, it stands as a study in restraint, where cutting and folding alone define both function and presence.
The brushed metal surface captures and diffuses light softly, while the intersecting planes create a dynamic dialogue between positive and negative space.
An exploration of how far a single sheet can go, shaped as if it were paper.

LUMIX is a conversation piece where different stories reside. A minimalist table lamp designed for the new way of living and contemporary homes. Created to promote openness to culture convergences, warm conversations around the traditional fire pit.
The most striking part of the design is the interlocking base consisting of two laser-cut wooden or stainless steel legs with a hand-polished finish by master craftsmen. This gives the lamp a stable and solid base, with an elegant look. The lampshade is made of a polycarbonate cylinder, a 100% recyclable material, which projects a beautiful light when the lamp is on.
