Gozen

A design-led biotechnology startup based in Istanbul, Turkey, we create extraordinary biomaterials for visionary creatives. Led by founder Ece Gozen, we act as a bridge between the worlds of next-generation technology, progressive design and the traditions of craft – united by a core purpose to protect the Earth. With the foundations of our collective origins, we are reshaping our shared future. Collaborating with primordial organisms through proprietary BioCraft technology, our breakthrough LUNAFORM biomaterial is our catalyst for change. Impossibly strong, timelessly durable, and fully-scalable as of now, LUNAFORM sets the standard for a new wave of innovation, challenging the limits of material form. In 2023, we earned headlines with the retail launch of the Balenciaga LUNAFORM Maxi Bathrobe Coat. Since this radical breakthrough for Earth-centric design, we have raised significant funding, enabling the opening of a Square Feet facility for growing LUNAFORM at commercial scale, rising to meet industry demand for impactful change. With our first ever LUNAFORM now released, further brand partnerships with paradigm-shifting potential will be announced throughout 2025.
