Thorn

Believing that it is possible to grow and differentiate organic forms in nature without disturbing their structure and expression by coincidences, and that human beings have an instinctive affinity for natural forms, Yılmaz Dogan said that while designing Thorn, he wanted to reflect growth with forms that emulate nature without any dimension limitation in illumination. Thorn, which is a source of inspiration for a natural branch of Thorn; grows in a random structure and forms natural, meets different needs and has no size limit as a good lighting design.

Ripple

The middle tables that used usually take place in the middle of the spaces and cause difficulty with the approach problems. For this reason, the service tables are used to open this gap. In order to solve this problem, Yılmaz Dogan has combined two functions in the design of Ripple and developed a dynamic product design which can be both a middle stand and a service table, which travels with an asymmetric arm and moves in the distance. This dynamic motion coincided with Ripple's fluid design lines reflecting from nature with the variability of a drop and the waves formed by that drop.

Les

Les is a drawing ruler used to create L shapes quickly and precisely. The tool is based on a traditional 30 centimetre triangle ruler, so it serves two purposes. Movable tabs are placed in the required positions, and the cut guide is then followed with a pen or pencil. Shapes can be symmetrical or asymmetrical, with lengths from 2 to 20 centimetres in steps of 1 centimetre. Repeated measuring is not needed, and the right angle is already set. Les is made of plastic by laser cutting and molding.

Shell

The Shell sofa appeared as a combination of sea shells outlines and fashion trends in imitating exoskeleton technology and 3d printing. The aim was to create a sofa with the effect of optical illusion. It should be the light and airy furniture that could be used both at home and outdoors. To achieve the effect of lightness a web of nylon ropes was used. Thus the hardness of the carcass is balanced by the weaving and softness of the silhouette lines. A rigid base under the corner sections of the seat can be used as side tables and soft overhead seats and cushions finish the composition.
