 Why MOR?

The word "MOR" means purple in Turkish which has been the symbol of power, wealth, nobility, love and enchantment for ages. The color expression of elegance and perfection. The perfect combination of soothing, creative, masculine blue and energetic, exciting, feminine red; and also the balance between the two that highlights their harmony. Chosen by the ones who aims to be different, to think out of the box and the ones with no boundaries. The color of dahlia, wild pansy, hyacinth, lilac, meadow saffron, lavender and tulip. The taste of damson, elderberry, blackcurrant and raspberry. The attraction of amethyst, erythrite and chalcedony. A color that's mystic, special and hard to get sundresses. Also the capital letters of our field of work, Mimari ORganizasyon; which means 'architectural organisation' in Turkish.
