About Us

Dükkan means the shop in Turkish. Everybody has a favorite shop. One whose things are more special; maybe it's the colors and the smells, maybe it's your favorite because they know you so well that they know what you want before you even ask, or maybe it's the way they package up your purchases… These things can seem to be minor details but they are the essential characteristics that make that shop unique. This is the boutique-style service concept that our studio believes in.

With the change of the new year we decided to change our visual identity. The idea began with the launching of Dükkan's new website – the line reads, come in, we're open. Obviously this refers to a shop's sign announcing that they're open for business or it refers to our website finally being online. But then we realized it's also a nice metaphor for the people inside. Open-minded, available and accessible, open to new ideas and ways of thinking, open to new challenges and open to new solutions. This is how we treat our projects. And so it stuck.
