Rooted in materials, components & trades of making  vernacular to historical Karaköy neighbourhood, Mis-Shapes are made and assembled by hand in small scale workshops in the area. Materials and components with different perceived values  -such as acrylic offcuts, rubber parts and brass spinning- are brought together with solid brass
fasteners; making the objects open to repair and repurpose.
