French designer Constance Guisset has created the ankara star collection of furniture for a project she completed at the French Institute of Turkey in Ankara. Making a great point in proposing a harmonious area I decided to design a whole collection with a single material combination: lower parts in plied metal and wooden tops. Moreover, the people’s circulation complexity in a space that is mainly a passing area towards class rooms led me to consider the project with circular shapes that would be set like changing constellations. The star collection, from the name of the new area where the French Institute of Turkey in Ankara was moving to. It consists of fifteen elements like a stool, a bat stool, a coffee table, a large table, two bars, a welcoming desk, two shelves and five exhibition stands for the library. They are painted in grey nuances except for the main elements (bar-desk and cashier) which are recognizable from their black colour.
