Residential
An interior in Nişantaşı shaped through making: a custom acoustic timber ceiling with handmade felt light elements, developed through material tests and prototypes.

At The Cocoon, a house renovation in Nişantaşı, details evolve through material studies, prototypes, fabrication and on-site decisions. From the acoustic timber ceiling to its integrated felt elements, the construction process becomes a way of testing texture, light, performance and craftsmanship at full scale.
