Who We Are

We are a design-driven studio with a creative and open-minded team, committed to creating value through innovation.

Since 2012, we’ve been involved in a wide range of projects across industries—from consumer products to mobility and healthcare. Our agile approach allows us to adapt quickly to different needs, stay current with evolving trends, and keep creativity at the heart of everything we do.

Beyond design, we are passionate about building a strong design culture at both national and international levels. We believe that knowledge-sharing is essential to creating long-term impact. That’s why we also offer training sessions and design thinking workshops, helping organizations integrate design into their culture and decision-making processes.

At Formeta Design, we turn bold ideas into tangible, impactful products. Based in Istanbul and working globally, we are an independent industrial design studio specializing in consumer products, healthcare solutions, smart transportation, and industrial systems.

Led by award-winning designer Mert Sezer, our studio combines strategy, aesthetics, and engineering into every project. We believe good design doesn’t just look good—it solves real problems, connects with users, and drives innovation.

Our team works hands-on with clients, from early product strategy to final prototype. Whether you’re a startup developing your first product or an established company optimizing an existing system, we bring a clear, thoughtful approach that bridges creativity and functionality.

Our portfolio includes everything from medical devices to urban mobility vehicles, and our work has been recognized by international design awards. But what drives us most is curiosity and collaboration—we see every project as a partnership.

If you’re looking for a design partner who thinks deeply, acts boldly, and delivers with care, Formeta Design is ready to build the future with you.

Formeta Design was originally founded as Mertadam Design in 2012, and rebranded as Formeta Design in 2020 to reflect its international vision and to build a more universal brand identity. Today, Formeta provides design services across Europe, the Middle East, and the United States.

Formeta Design was co-founded by Mert Sezer and Melda Yanmaz, who continue to lead the studio together with a shared commitment to innovation, aesthetics, and strategic design thinking. Since its establishment, the studio has delivered design solutions for over 50 companies across a wide range of industries. In 2022, Formeta House launched its first original product, Carryfix.

In addition to his role at Formeta, Mert is the managing partner of Molenore, a design brand specializing in narrative-driven furniture accessories. He also mentors startups at ITU SEED, one of Europe’s top incubation centers, and serves on the advisory board of the Industrial Design Department at Marmara University. From 2020 to 2023, he served as the President of the Istanbul Branch of the Industrial Designers’ Society of Turkey.

We are passionate about fostering a strong design culture at both national and international levels. We believe design is a strategic tool—one that can create impact when aligned with knowledge, empathy, and innovation.

Through training programs, design thinking workshops, and consulting, we help organizations build their own internal design capacities and integrate design into their culture and decision-making.

With our dynamic and scalable structure, we collaborate closely with clients to deliver value-driven design outcomes. Whether it’s a market-disrupting innovation or a refined product evolution, we tailor our approach to align with each client’s business goals and user needs.
