Approaching each project initially as storytellers, their work seeks to understand the character and context of each project.

Internationally renowned, Istanbul-based multidisciplinary design studio Raphael was founded in 2015 by Aslı Önük. Raphael works across architecture and interiors, product and experiential design, forging a reputation for thoughtfulness, experimentation and craftsmanship. Approaching each project initially as storytellers, their work seeks to understand the character and context of each project. Each element is informed by a uniquely space-centric approach, blending wit with sophistication, and minimal forms with rich materials.

Raphael Designs specializes in, but is not limited to, architectural styles such as Modern home design,  office developments, stadium, restaurant, hotel and eco friendly, green home design. Working closely with our clients we can create any unique style, or combination of styles they desire.

Their work has redefined Istanbul’s cityscape, including numerous hospitality, retail, residential and public realm developments, and is now also found in Belgium, Germany, France, Holland, as well as Kazakhistan.
