World of Mori
Mori is a contemporary cabin brand creating design-first shelters for nature-focused living. We build spaces for calm, connection, and modern living.
Founded by Enisé B Derinboğaz, landscape architect, developer and founder of Praxis Landscape with 20+ years of experience, our work is defined by architectural clarity and a "curated simplicity" philosophy.
Our identity is found in the harmony between two worlds: the depth and silence of Japanese heritage and the warmth and landscape-driven wisdom of the Mediterranean soul.
Our cabins are engineered in our production hubs in Turkey and USA, ensuring precision and quality.
- The Unit: We produce five typologies (M1–M5), from compact focus spaces to larger living quarters.
- Customization: Each unit offers a curated selection of architectural finishes and layout options.
- The Philosophy: Every cabin is a focus space that balances human needs with architectural clarity—minimalist in form, yet sophisticated in function.
- Production: Each unit is a factory-built product, delivered and ready for life within 8 to 16 weeks.
A Note from the Founder
Hi, I’m Enise Burcu Derinboğaz, founder of Mori Cabin.
I have spent my career exploring how we can live more meaningfully with nature — first through landscape architecture, and later through the development of places, spaces and experiences that bring people closer to the natural world.
Mori Cabin grew from a simple question: what if a home could help us live differently with nature?
Not simply by placing a house in a beautiful landscape, but by making the landscape part of everyday life — through the way we wake up, move, rest, observe, and spend time outdoors.
My years of living and working across Istanbul, Japan, Austria, Switzerland, Germany and now New York have shaped this perspective. They have taught me that a sense of place is not created by architecture alone. It comes from the relationship between a building, its landscape, and the way people experience both.
Mori Cabin is our expression of that relationship.
We create limited-edition cabins for people who want less noise, more nature, and a deeper sense of place — wherever they choose to make it.
Welcome to Mori.
Mori Forest
Soul blend of Japanese design and Mediterranean connection.
The name Mori—Japanese for “forest” 森—is a metaphor for the transition from a solitary sanctuary to a resilient collective. It is composed of three individual tree characters.
Our design blends the depth and silence of Japanese heritage with the warmth and landscape-driven wisdom of the Mediterranean soul.
While one cabin stands alone, together they create retreats and a way of living closer to nature.
Mori grows through connection, forming an ecosystem where nature, design, well-being, and community coexist.
