OMM Letter Paperclip Collection

As part of an ongoing collaboration with Odunpazarı Modern Museum (OMM), Form&Seek developed a custom series of paperclips that reinterpret the museum’s initials as spatial forms. The letters O–M–M are translated through a graphic language informed by the museum’s distinctive timber architecture—its layered geometry, rhythmic repetition, and nuanced interplay of light and shadow.

Though modest in scale, the paperclips operate as two-dimensional objects with a three-dimensional sensibility. Constructed through precise linework, each form suggests depth, volume, and movement, echoing the architectural cadence of the museum itself. The collection captures OMM’s spatial identity in a tactile, functional format that bridges graphic clarity and sculptural expression.

For Form&Seek, museum collaborations are acts of translation—careful studies of institutional ethos transformed into objects that extend curatorial narratives beyond exhibition walls. With OMM, an institution rooted in contemporary culture and craft, the intention was to distill architectural presence into an everyday tool, allowing visitors to carry a fragment of the museum’s spatial language into daily life.

The OMM Letter Paperclip Collection reflects an ongoing commitment to designing culturally resonant objects that balance precision, play, and architectural memory.
