| About Yilmaz Dogan : Yılmaz Doğan is a designer who has been interested in interior architecture and product design since childhood and started to develop his skills in this field at a young age. His design journey began as an apprentice in his family's carpenter's workshop in Siteler, Ankara, where he quickly realized the importance of structure in both space and furniture design. His passion for pushing structural boundaries led him to study civil engineering at university.
With his unique style that blends engineering and design disciplines, he has won many prestigious national and international design awards, including the iF, Red Dot and the A' Design Award.
Since 2008, as one of the founding partners of QZENS, he continues to create innovative products and interior projects across various categories. Design is a journey that starts with a line and goes beyond space and time. Sometimes it is actually a deep state of hypnosis in which you are spontaneously drawn into with a shadow, an image, a melody, a color, where you transcend the boundaries of your self and go beyond your identity. An enchanted disappearance where you are tossed between thinking you have arrived somewhere and never getting there. Design is a form of productivity and expression that emerges precisely in these disappearances.
