Folistudio is an architecture & interior design studio founded in Istanbul in 2020 by Ece Gökmenoğlu and M. Onur Durna, who met before university and studied architecture together at Istanbul Technical University. The studio designs contemporary follies, distinct, materially rich spaces built around a functional narrative, across architecture, interiors, and furniture. Today the practice works between Istanbul and Lisbon, on residential, hospitality, dining, and retail projects.

The studio's eye was formed across two cities. Istanbul gives it a metropolitan instinct, an ease with density and contrast; Lisbon, the saturated color and worn street texture that keep returning in the palette. Each project carries some trace of both without settling into a single accent.

A folly, here, is a small autonomous world: a room built around one idea and carried all the way through, in color, material, and use. Where the traditional folly was built for delight alone, the studio keeps the delight and gives it a purpose.

What stays constant across the work is a way of seeing: color and material carry the feeling of a space, and richness and restraint are kept in balance. Each project is given its own character, yet resolves into a design language.
