Unique Properties
The 428 candleholder design is part of a "Transitions" themed design collection that was released in year 2020. This theme was conceived as an exploration to transition a shape from a primitive form to a more intricate one while creating intricate curvy details on the designed object. The 428 candle holder starts with a square foundation base and advances through to pentagon, hexagon, heptagon and finally to its octagonal tip shape.

Production Technology
The prototype was designed on a 3D application using curves tools. The brass tip is a later addition to the design to enhance the protection of the candle holder from heat. The tip is also housed inside the candle holder during the molding process.
Design Challenge
The design challenge was to subtly incorporate the concept of 'Transitions' without making it too evident, aiming for an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Project Duration
The candle holder went into production by May, 2020 in İstanbul, Turkiye and the commercial release of the home decor object was June, 2020.
Operation Flow
The candle holder supports a tall candle with soft edges, forming a contrast against the candle holder's geometric curves.
Inspiration
428 Candleholder, emerged from a practical approach to design rather than starting from an external inspiration. Its name reflects its evolution from a square base to an octagonal shape, hence it gets the name 428 (4 sides transforming into 8). This concept not only showcases the beauty of the curves that emerge during the transition but also highlights the fact that design is also partially problem solving.
