Some things go unnoticed because they are wrong. Others, because they are exactly right. We chose the second.

Surface is the
language we speak

We don't ask which finish you want. We ask which room it is going in, what light it will live under, and how it should feel after fifteen years.

19 PVD colours on super mirror · thousands of combinations
↑ Select a colour plate to preview each finish. Physical samples produced per project, in your final substrate.

A finish is chosen the way a stone is: with care, with reference samples, and a sense of how it will age. We produce physical samples for every project, in the substrate the final piece will use.

The Atelier · Ataşehir, Istanbul

For seventeen years, the same hands. The same quiet.

Dekap began in 2009 around the gold-plating bench of a small family workshop. The atelier learned the grammar of surface in the slowest possible way: by working on it, every day. Design, engineering, production and every language of finish now live under one roof.

ConsideredSlow when slow is right.
CraftedEvery detail a decision, not a default.
