Lamps by Umut Yamac for Moooi.

Umut Yamac is a British architect and designer whose work is characterised by a multidisciplinary approach; exploring the middle ground between architecture and light. Umut graduated from the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, in 2009 and established his design studio in 2011 to focus on creating objects and installations that are responsive to both the user and the space through playful interaction and movement. Often taking inspiration from nature, conceptual ideas are tested through a hands-on process of making where the workshop plays a central role in the development and realization of each project. Alongside his studio work, Umut also teaches and runs workshops at numerous design schools including the Bartlett School of Architecture and Central St Martins.
