BORA ÖZDEMIR, OWNER AND DESIGNER OF BARBO, SAYS “DESIGN IS EXCLUSIVE, FIRST, TO THE DESIGNER HIMSELF” AND CONTINUES “THE DESIGNER’S WAY OF LIVING, TARGETS, VISION, ALL HE FEELS DEPENDING WHAT HE WISHES TO MAKE, ARE ALL REFLECTED TO THE WORK AS A WHOLE. YOU ONLY REFLECT HOW YOU LIVE. THE THINGS YOU HAVE DESIGNED ARE DERIVED FROM THE REFLECTIONS OF YOUR BACKGROUND TO THAT WORK. FOR A WORK DURING THE PHASE OF BEING CREATED, TO ME, FIRST, THE IDEA FIGURED IN MIND SHOULD BE MATURED. THE WAY IT IS SHAPED CORRECTLY IS CONNECTED TO TIME. WHEN THE DESIGNER GETS AN IDEA AFFECTING HIMSELF, HE THINKS LONG ENOUGH TILL HE ACHIEVES TO REACH TO THE WHOLE OF THAT IDEA, LOOKS FOR DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES, IN OTHER WORDS CONVERTS HIS TIME TO SUBJECT. WHEN I TAKE A LOOK FROM THE WINDOW OF OUR SECTOR IN TERMS OF EASY USING IN THIS SYSTEM, I FEEL MYSELF MORE TENDED TO THE WOOD”. BORA ÖZDEMIR, BELIEVING A QUICK AND BIG ADVANCING STEP IS TAKEN FOR TURKISH DESIGN, ALSO THINKS THAT “IN THIS SECTOR, IT IS AN UNDENIABLE FACT FOR THE YOUNG TO ENCOUNTER PROBLEMS IN FINDING A GROUND TO MOVE INSIDE” AND ADDS: “IN ORDER TO BECOME A NAME IN DESIGN FIELD, WITHOUT A SUPPORT IT IS VERY HARD TO COME TO THAT POINT, TO PROVE HIMSELF.

A DESIGNER WHO HAS BECOME A NAME, UNFORTUNATELY, NEVER TURNS AND LOOKS BACK AGAIN TO THIS HARD AND TIRING PROCESS HE LEFT BEHIND IN THE SECTOR, IS NOT INTERESTED. A NEWCOMER YOUNG DESIGNER STRUGGLES TO PROVE HIMSELF THROUGH THE SAME PROBLEMS AND TO BREAK THIS CLOSED CIRCUIT, FOR ME, ANY ONE WHO HAS A SEAT IN THE SECTOR SHOULD FIRST TO SUPPORT THE YOUNG”. BARBO FURNITURE, ADVANCING A STEP FORWARD IN TURKISH DESIGN SECTOR THROUGH ITS MODERN LINE, TARGETS TO CREATE A DIFFERENT ATMOSPHERE WITH ITS DESIGNS BY LEADING PEOPLE TO A DIFFERENT DIMENSION FROM A STYLE THEY HAVE BEEN SEEN OR ACCUSTOMED.
