Two friends—one raised on the mist-kissed shores of the Black Sea, the other amid Cappadocia’s moon-lit valleys—met in college and have been dancing through life ever since. Today that rhythm drives RENNK from two creative hubs: Pelin in Los Angeles and Özlem in Türkiye. After years shaping global tech brands and product strategy, they’ve redirected that precision and pace toward a shared passion where craftsmanship meets culture and bold ideas find their way home.
RENNK draws its essence from the vibrant culture of the Eastern Mediterranean and the loving craftsmanship of “el emeği, göz nuru”—a Turkish phrase symbolizing heartfelt labor and personal devotion—brought to life through bold color palettes and a refined mix of luxurious fabrics like linen, satin, silk, and velvet, all meticulously chosen for their rich impact. Inspired by the Turkish word “renk,” meaning color and modern vibrancy, RENNK embodies a spirit of creativity and dynamism. Each garment and accessory showcases an eye for detail, from carefully curated accents to sleek, contemporary silhouettes that reflect both artistry and authenticity.
Proudly handmade and responsibly produced, RENNK exudes an extravagant yet uplifting vibe: offbeat, bold, vibrant, bright, and strikingly inventive. Those who choose RENNK appreciate the synergy of fashion and art, embracing the brand’s eclectic designs and the exclusivity of its high-quality craftsmanship. It’s for anyone ready to celebrate individuality and truly stand out in a crowd.
By positioning itself as an outsider in the fashion world, RENNK defies predictable trends and aims to redefine contemporary style—delivering pieces that balance fearless creativity with the warmth of handmade devotion.
CREATIVE APPROACH
Every idea begins with a spark; a fabric, a silhouette, or a familiar texture, and is shaped through sketching, material research, and collaboration with artisans across Turkey. Our inspirations range from Georgia O’Keeffe to mid-century modern design, united by a commitment to traditional techniques and the emotional resonance of handmade work.
FAVOURITE THING AT HOME
Ozlem treasures handmade ceramic tiles created by her late mother-in-law and her Noguchi Akari lamp, both pieces carrying quiet depth. Pelin loves her refinished 1960s Danish teak coffee table and textiles passed down from her family, each object reminding her of time, care, and heritage.
MEANING OF HOME
For RENNK, home is a place shaped slowly and intentionally, where tradition and contemporary living meet. It’s where meaningful objects hold memory, where warmth gathers, and where the stories of the people you love become part of the space.
