PERCH TREE CHANDELIER BY UMUT YAMAC
What is more poetic and elegantly captivating than a bird perched on a branch, flirting, singing, and celebrating life? We all recognise this image and steal a moment from our precious time to admire this triumph of nature and beauty. The PERCH TREE CHANDELIER BY UMUT YAMAC takes that fleeting admiration and scales it into something permanent — a ceiling installation of such extraordinary presence that it does not simply light a room, it becomes the room.
A central vertical pole of warm brushed brass anchors the entire composition, from which multiple horizontal arms extend outward at ascending tiers — forming the abstracted structure of a tree in full inhabitation. Across every branch, origami birds perch in their dozens: white, angular, precise, each sculpted from translucent PMMA lens components, each tipped in gold at the tail and feet, each angled with the restless specificity of a creature deciding whether to stay or take flight. Lit from within, their wings glow with warm diffused light, creating a canopy that is simultaneously luminous and alive.
At 270 cm tall and 170 cm wide, the PERCH TREE CHANDELIER BY UMUT YAMAC is unambiguously an object for architectural spaces. The atrium of a luxury hotel, the foyer of a private residence with double or triple ceiling height, a flagship showroom, a gallery — these are the rooms where the PERCH TREE CHANDELIER BY UMUT YAMAC finds its full expression. And yet within that commanding scale, the detail remains intimate. Approach closely and each bird is individual, precise, beautifully resolved. Step back and the flock reads as a single breathing canopy of light suspended above you, casting warmth downward through hundreds of translucent wings.
This is the ceiling installation that makes every other ceiling installation feel like a light fitting.

I installed this chandelier in my double-height foyer and visitors literally stop mid-conversation to stare upward. Dozens of white origami birds perched along cascading brass branches create the most magical, ethereal light sculpture I’ve ever seen. During the day it’s a breathtaking kinetic artwork. At night, it’s absolutely dreamlike. The craftsmanship and scale are extraordinary beyond words. Life-changing piece!
