AYNA design studio — Düzce
A space mirrorsthe lives within it.
Manifesto
To design a space is to design the history that will unfold in it.
AYNA design studio treats its interiors and its objects as two states of a single idea. Every project begins by listening: to the light a space already has, to the memory carried in its materials, and to the daily rhythm of the person who will live there.
We are not after the spectacular but after what settles in over time. A well-proportioned void, a handle remembered by the way it felt, a plaster that shifts colour in the evening light — these are what make a space last.
Featured Projects
Different in scale, one in language.
From villas and homes to cafes, restaurants and offices, every project begins with the same questions: where does the light come from, how do people move through here, and which material grows more beautiful with the years?
Collections
Objects born from spaces.
Our collections usually begin as a need inside a project: when we cannot find what we are looking for, we make it. From objects and furniture to mirrors and lighting, each piece is produced in the studio in small runs.
Bonbon
A playful series of rounded terrazzo and glass objects.
Minimal Serving
Stone and ceramic pieces bringing a pared-back language to the table.
Objects
Small-scale pieces that earn their meaning in daily use, not as decoration.
Furniture
Repairable furniture made in solid timber and woven surfaces.
Mirrors
The series that carries the studio’s name: mirrors adding light and depth.
Lighting
Bronze and alabaster fittings producing reflected rather than direct light.
Material
Surfaces that improve with time.
For us material is not a finishing decision but a starting one. How it feels under the hand, how it ages over the years and how it holds light — all three decide together.
Journal
Notes from the process.
Regular notes from the studio, filed under inspiration, process, travel, material and sketch.
Material — July 2026
Making peace with the pores of travertine
Filled travertine looks smooth but lies over time. On how leaving the pores open changes both the light and the ageing.
Process — June 2026
How many times do you test a plaster sample?
A short note on why wall samples must be judged in the light of the space itself, not on site under work lamps.
Travel — May 2026
Courtyards that hold shade on the Aegean
Observations on how courtyard typologies in coastal towns manage heat and privacy at the same time.
