Design Details
- Unique Properties
- VENTURI SHOWCASE. Perfectly complementing the personality of its owner, it provides real value for displaying works of art. Careful use of aspect ratios in Venturi's design has resulted in an experience that delivers the ultimate in visual power.
- Inspiration
- My inspiration for creating the project is my passion for automobiles. While designing, I was inspired by the engine designs of super sports cars. The fact that they are complex but also in order allowed me to come up with this design. The engine cylinder arrangement of automobiles also became my source of inspiration.
- Research
- While researching the design, I examined dozens of current showcase designs and in order to have a unique design that would be different from all current showcase designs, I researched hundreds of visuals and videos from all fields, recorded the visual videos I deemed necessary, collected the best details here and brought them together, and as a result, I came up with the VENTURI design.
- Challenge
- The most difficult factor in the emergence of the design was the idea of being completely original and with the highest level of visual power. From the moment the design began to emerge on paper to the tightening of the last screw in production, great attention was paid to visual detail and material quality. In order to be a timeless design, it was aimed to maintain the same visual power even after years.
- Operation and Interaction
- It does not have any working principles. It consists of four fixed columns and shelves fixed in different directions.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in Turkey in June 2023 and finished in Turkey in August 2023 and was exhibited at the Istanbul furniture fair in January 2024.
