In Mikodam’s foundation lies a half-century legacy of experience and know-how in the fields of high-end contract furnishings, having completed many prestigious residential, commercial, entertainment and hospitality projects in various countries around the globe.

Melih Gün, the founder of Mikodam Design and IKOOR, and Katherine Ceren Stark Gün are the head of the company. They are design and life partners. Melih Gün comes from a family of furniture designers who raised Melih in an innovative, nourishing environment where he learned the art of furniture through direct experience. Later he studied industrial design at METU. Ceren Stark comes from a family of intellectuals who value art, culture and knowledge. She studied industrial design at METU as well.

Together with their team, Melih and Ceren, who carry their families’ values and insights on art, design and innovation, brought this legacy into Mikodam and IKOOR, the companies they founded  in order to take a step towards the future. IKOOR is our contract project firm where we provide manufacturing solutions. Mikodam’s focus  is on design, creating  products that will carry our solutions into the market. We avoid mass  production, keeping Mikodam products boutique.

In our team every opinion is valued equally, and we work as a whole, believing that we can all learn from one another.
