Sami Y.
Furniture Designer & 3D Visualization Specialist
I'm a furniture designer and 3D visualization specialist based in Istanbul. I run Simula Design Studio, a small design practice focused on furniture and product development, technical drawings, and photorealistic rendering for small brands, makers, and architects. What I can help you with: — Custom furniture design — from concept to production-ready drawings — Photorealistic 3D rendering of furniture and product (3ds Max + Corona) — Interior visualization for residential and contract spaces — Technical 2D drawings and production documentation (Rhino) — Lookbook and catalog imagery for furniture brands How I work: I treat every brief as a design problem, not just a rendering task. Whether you bring me a finished sketch or a vague idea, I'll ask questions early to align on proportion, material, mood, and intent before any model is built. My references sit somewhere between soft minimalism and contemporary craft — clean, material-honest, quietly considered. Who I usually work with: Small to mid-size furniture brands, independent makers, architects, and interior designers who care more about how a piece is made and seen than how loud it is. If your project sits in that world, we'll likely work well together. Feel free to message me before sending a proposal — I'd rather scope the right package together than guess at it.
