The Monumental Collection, crafted
during an artist residency at Luminaire
In Collaboration with Artist Zeynep Boyan Authentik in collaboration with artist
Zeynep Boyan, reflects the company’s
dedication to merging custom lighting
design with artistic ingenuity. It draws
inspiration from the legacy of ancient
civilizations and the rich cultural heritage
of pre-modern Turkey. This collection
pays homage to the enduring elegance
and grandeur of classical architectural
columns from a crossroads of diverse
cultures, blending elements from
Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and
Anatolian artifacts into reimagined,
modern lighting design.
Each fixture in the Monumental
Collection showcases the enduring
strength and beauty of classical forms,
merging traditional aesthetics with
contemporary craftsmanship. Central
to each design is a hand-sculpted knob,
a defining feature of Boyan’s work that
enhances the organic quality of the
collection’s forms. Sculpted entirely by
hand from stoneware clay, each piece
undergoes an oxidation firing process,
is finished with hand-brushed glaze
strokes, and is completed with Luminaire
Authentik’s custom products, showcasing
their artisanal approach.
