Established by Alesia Sirokina in 2020, Square in Circle is renowned for lighting designs that bring together the rigor of geometry with the poetry of the figure-in-motion. Dance and movement have informed many of Sirokina’s designs: the 1922 Bauhaus ballet by Oskar Schlemmer was an early inspiration for the brand, from which its first design emerged – the emblematic ‘Dance of Geometry’ – and it is a theme that continues to develop through her work. Playing with ideas of symmetry and asymmetry, flatness and depth, Square in Circle produces designs that are complex yet understated, using a pared-back vocabulary of shapes and materials. Each piece is an ever-changing composition with parts that seem to move in relation to the viewer, in a dance of sorts…

With a background in Interior Architecture and Design, Sirokina worked at a London-based architectural practice for more than ten years, where she was involved in the design, production and manufacture of interior projects. As a result, Sirokina brings a wealth of knowledge to her own studio to ensure that Square In Circle achieves the highest level of sophistication on every level – from aesthetics and ambience, to engineering and craftsmanship.

“Amazing armchair! Interesting idea to take 3 triangular shapes to make into functional furniture.”
