Reflect Studio

Reflect Studio is a sustainable design and manufacturing studio founded in Istanbul in September 2016. Its work spans apparel and everyday objects, combining product design with material sourcing, manufacturing and collection delivery. The business brings together a consumer apparel brand, a merchandise design partner for institutions, and retail spaces where customers can customize garments.

The studio works with cultural institutions, museums, environmental organizations, educational institutions and corporate teams. Its collaborative process begins with insight gathering and creative concept development, then moves through design, prototyping, sampling and production. Visual documentation, branding, packaging and fulfillment form part of the same service, allowing commissioned collections to be developed from an initial idea through to distribution.

Materials and circular design

Reflect Studio uses certified organic cotton, recycled fibers and rescued deadstock textiles alongside biodegradable packaging. Its approach emphasizes durable products and circular material practices. Textile upcycling and material research support both its own collections and commissioned work, while its uniform offering extends its design and manufacturing capabilities to schools, cultural spaces and corporate teams.

Circular production also appears in collaborations addressing institutional surplus and textile waste. Its work with the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality applies upcycling to municipal materials, while the REGAIN collaboration explores mechanical textile recycling and deadstock regeneration. These projects connect its material development interests with practical collection production.

Cultural merchandise and retail

The studio's institutional work includes exhibition merchandise for Istanbul Modern, a collection for Contemporary Istanbul Bloom, and apparel and recycled paper stationery for London's Barbican Centre. Other collaborations include nature-inspired merchandise for Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, licensed collections for WWF Turkey, and capsule apparel for Galatasaray S.K. and MUBI Turkey.

Alongside commissioned projects, Reflect Studio sells its own sustainable lifestyle collections through e-commerce and physical retail. Its customization spaces offer embroidery, heat-press badging and DIY garment upgrades. The company maintains an international presence across Türkiye, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, supporting its combination of product development, manufacturing partnerships and cultural merchandise commissions.
