The Ankara Star Collection Focuses on Harmonious Design

The Ankara Star collection is a beautifully simple furniture set built to accommodate various purposes. Completed for the French Institute of Turkey in Ankara, this collection was designed to cover the entire ground floor from the welcoming desk to the bookshop.

Conceived by French designer Constance Guisset, the Ankara Star collection is the result of a harmonious concept. Using a single material combination for every piece, Guisset was also inspired by "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."
