ABOUT US
Object Or Not Object began with a simple curiosity: If we look at an object from a different perspective, does its meaning change as well? Perhaps the meaning an object carries is shaped by how we look at it and how we choose to see it.
We see objects not merely as “things,” but as concepts that can be read through meaning, relationship, function, and aesthetics. We are curious about how the objects that accompany our lives can transform when they meet someone new, and what feelings they might hold. We care just as much about the meanings you assign to objects as we do about the freedom of assigning none at all. We are here to be inspired, to think together, to create, and sometimes simply to share a quiet smile.
Our production began and took shape in Istanbul with 3D-printed objects made on demand and with minimal waste. This process taught us to consider not the speed of production, but its intention: to create only when truly needed, and to seek meaning rather than excess. Yet Object Or Not Object is not limited to 3D printing, and never was. The journey started there, but we have always seen sustainability not as a technique but as a stance. We discovered how little can actually be enough. We tried, failed, chose, and let go. We moved forward accompanied by many emotions.
Our interest has never been confined to a single method or material. We see all of this as only a beginning. Objects that carry memory, transform space, or shift emotion simply through their presence continue to guide us. We want this world to grow over time, and we see its evolution through new materials, different production methods, and future collaborations as a natural path. This is not a finished space; it is a living one, always curious and open to change.
We invite you into a space where our relationship with objects can be reconsidered. For those who wish to feel more with less; for those who choose not only to look, but to see. Because sometimes, when we look at an object again, it is not only the object that changes—so do we.
