OUR 'WHY'

YALANZHI OBJECTS lamps defy classification within stylistic currents and trends. Their bold interplay of shapes and colors renders interiors timeless, embodying a fundamental value of the brand – temporal extent. This extends across generations, experiences, knowledge, and the temporality of living in a home filled with meaning. In the absence of a stable tradition of inheritance due to historical hardships, YALANZHI OBJECTS lamps strive for sustainability in both production and style. They are designed to be as valuable to your children as they are to you today.

HISTORY

Founded in 2017, YALANZHI OBJECTS consistently releases daring collections, pushing the boundaries of form perception. Expressing respect for the planet, each piece is meticulously handcrafted from natural recycled materials. The brand's journey with cellulose experimentation began in 2015, leading to the creation of lighting designs in 2017. A pivotal year, marked by exhibitions in Odesa and Kyiv, transitioned the brand from pure art to object design.

The experimentation phase in 2018 saw YALANZHI OBJECTS participate in events in Paris, solidifying its international presence. Noteworthy collaborations and discussions on color ensued, with the brand making a big move to Kyiv in 2019. Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the brand evolved, culminating in breakthroughs in 2021 and 2022, including a nomination for Interior of the Year and participation in international exhibitions.

In 2023, the brand rejuvenates with a new workshop, increased production, and an open space for visitors. Continuing its global presence, YALANZHI OBJECTS presents the new Marevo lamp and conquers Paris once again at the Revelations exhibition.
