He works on a diverse range of projects from the scale of the object to the architectural. The common thread that unites each piece is the emphasis placed on the relationship with the user; and the desire to offer different levels of engagement, from purely functional to the playful and imaginary.

The Perch Light family was created by the Turkish-English designer Umut Yamac in 2016. Its attraction to nature inspires him this collection, whose central element is a bird made of origami with a white polypropylene paper. The spout, the legs, and the branches are made of brass painted aluminum, and, together with an integrated LED inside the bird's white body, they diffuse a soft light, warm and undazzling. A real glow of sunshine. Playful detail: the bird can very slightly swing when touched by the hand. The Perch Light collection includes a table lamp, a floor lamp, two wall lamps, as well as a chandelier and a pendant.
