Artizen: A Sculptural Chandelier That Illuminates Spaces

Expressing Pure Human Feelings Through Art and Lighting

Artizen is not only a chandelier, but also an expression of pure human feelings through art. Designed by Sebnem Buhara, this sculptural masterpiece combines masculine materials such as glass and brass to create an organic form that illuminates spaces with elegance and grace.

Artizen stands out from other chandeliers with its classic form and the unique ability to change shapes. By simply adjusting the lines up or down, the design transforms into a different configuration, offering flexibility and multiple usage options for different spaces. This innovative system allows users to customize the design according to their preferences, making it a truly versatile lighting solution.

Sebnem Buhara, the designer behind Artizen, believes that an object should not only be useful but also evoke a sense of uniqueness and tell a story. With its fluid lines and captivating design, Artizen represents the movement of mobile liquids. Each brass line and the overall composition exude a sense of flow, creating a mesmerizing visual experience.

The realization of Artizen involves a meticulous process that combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. The glass and brass components are carefully sculpted by hand, with special molds used to shape the brass lines. Each glass piece is individually blown, adding a touch of artistry and craftsmanship to the design.

Artizen also embraces technological advancements in the lighting industry. With dimmable LED technology, the design not only provides a warm and inviting ambiance but also ensures energy efficiency. The combination of timeless materials and modern lighting systems makes Artizen a perfect blend of aesthetics and functionality.

Technical specifications of Artizen include a diameter of 80 cm and a height of 141 cm. It features G9 bulb LED lighting with a porcelain holder, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable illumination source.

The Artizen project started in February 2016 and was completed in May 2016 in Istanbul. Currently, it is being exhibited at BOU Art & Design, captivating visitors with its unique design and captivating presence.

This exceptional design has been recognized with the prestigious Bronze A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures category in 2017. This accolade acknowledges Artizen's outstanding creativity and ingenuity, as well as its contribution to improving the quality of life through art, science, design, and technology.
