Hakan Kemal
Architect / Furniture Designer
Meet Hakan Kemal, Istanbul-based furniture designer driven by form, material, and emotion.
My work navigates the blurry line between sculpture and function — creating objects that question what furniture can be, not just what it should be.
I believe furniture should evoke something beyond comfort — a reaction, a thought, a dialogue.
Each piece is a reflection of contradiction: softness in structure, precision in imperfection.
My first realized design, the Oppse Chair, embodies this — an asymmetrical, three-legged rebellion against conventional seating logic.
I aim to develop limited-production furniture and art objects that live in bold interiors — hotels, villas, and galleries.
Hakankemal Studio is not a brand — it’s a growing personal practice. A search for meaning through material.
