Our Story

he secret of life is hidden in the word “care”. While drinking a cup of coffee, chatting with a friend, visiting a museum, planting flowers, giving cat water, learning something new… Whatever you do, you should do it with “care”, look for “care” in it, and live life with “care”.

We live in an age where everything is done so fast, and changes so fast that we become estranged not from the word “care”, but from “care” itself. Taking an individual stance against this and with the desire to feel better, I care that gifts from me have my own unique touch. I believe that gifting with care is equally important as choosing a gift with care, and first of all I want to add a special touch to wrapping. Since many years, I’ve been wrapping my gifts with “care” and write a gift note ending with “Telem’den” (meaning “from Telem”)

When I decided to start my own design brand, naming it was the easiest step. Because I already had a signature that I have used for years and that signature became the name of my brand: TELEMDEN.

TELEMDEN is established to leave “unique and caring” marks in the fast life of modern times. Incredible talents that I admire for their exceptional work done with care and love, came together for TELEMDEN. In fact, I worked with them in different periods of my life, I was proud of their achievements, and I enjoyed not only working with them but also sharing life with them. Besides, they more or less knew each other well. So I only had to say “come join me”.  And after all, the TELEMDEN team resembled the dazzling view seen through a kaleidoscope. The unique style and color of each person created the perfect harmony. That’s exactly why we chose a color for everyone as you will see in the “Meet the Team” section. For the color of Telem, I left the decision to the team; they decided I am “white”. Because white contains every color and makes other colors shine…
