by Buket Hoşcan Bazman · İzmir, Turkey

Buket Hoscan Bazman approaches design as a journey of curiosity - an exploration of materials, techniques, and cultural narratives. As a Turkish designer, she explores collectible furniture and objects that bridge tradition and modernity, honoring craftsmanship while embracing contemporary forms. She primarily works with brass, wood, and stone, materials that carry a sense of history and transformation, shaped by time and human touch.In her view, design is more than aesthetics; it is about creating objects that evoke emotion, invite interaction, and age gracefully. Fully involved in every stage of production, she works closely with skilled artisans, ensuring that each piece is meticulously handcrafted while preserving and reinterpreting traditional techniques for the contemporary world.
