Our story

A dialogue between material and form.
Timeless pieces where simplicity reveals true craftsmanship.

Moku history

MOKU began with a moment of recognition. Getting to know Balinese craft up close, the materials, the techniques, the objects themselves, revealed a side of Indonesian design that stopped us completely. Raw, present, deeply considered. Work that could hold its own in a modern interior not by blending in, but by standing apart from it. Giving a space exactly the character it was missing.

The ambition became simple: to bring that to Europe and beyond. To connect people who care about considered design with craft that has been extraordinary here for generations.

What has always drawn us to this work is the same thing that makes it last: the way tradition and the contemporary are not in opposition here, but in dialogue. The material carries the story. The form carries the restraint. The result is something timeless not because it ignores the present, but because it is rooted in something deeper than trend.

Sustainability

Honest by nature

We begin with the material. Not as a constraint, but as a starting point. The thing that determines everything that follows. Teak, mango wood or rattan: each carries a logic of its own, a natural rhythm that good craft respects rather than overrides. Where nature becomes form, the material leads.

We select with care and without compromise. The origin of a material, how it was harvested, how it will age. These are design decisions, not afterthoughts. An object that is honest about what it is made of will outlast anything built to conceal it.

All MANUal

All Manual

Consciously crafted

Each piece is shaped with precision and purpose.

We create objects that connect material, craftsmanship, and space. Rooted in heritage and shaped for contemporary living, each piece is designed to bring depth, presence, and lasting value.

We believe in honest materials, thoughtful processes, and respect for the people behind each piece. We approach design with simplicity and intention. By focusing on form, function, and material, we create things that endure. That is not a positioning statement. It is the only way we know how to work.

Our Story

born in bali

MOKU was founded by Hanna Bobak and Dina Yacubova, two people who kept arriving at the same conviction: that the most considered objects are made where nature and craft have always been in conversation. Rooted in Indonesia, the brand connects traditional know-how with a contemporary design sensibility. We work close to the source and every piece reflects that: a dialogue between material, hand, and intention.

Hanna Bobak

To the idea of creating MOKU Hanna came by a long route. Running alongside her professional life was a deep fascination with craft and ideas that make life more beautiful. The move to Bali became the turning point. What started as curiosity turned into immersion. Behind it all was a conviction that art doesn't always need a museum. It belongs in the morning, becomes part of the rhythm of an afternoon. Belongs in the spaces people actually live in. That is how beauty enters everyday life. In the furniture you sit in, the objects you reach for, things made to be touched and used. MOKU is how she brings that here.

Dina Yacubova

Dina Yakubova is one of the people behind Mōku. Before that, she worked as an interior designer in the Netherlands, creating spaces that felt calm and deeply personal. After moving to Indonesia, she became fascinated by makers and hidden places behind the country's most beautiful objects. Curiosity became a passion for unique pieces and stories they carry. Dina and Hanna built relationships giving access to a world rarely found in catalogues. Mōku grew from that search. Today, it brings together furniture, décor and objects across Indonesia. Some are made. Others are discovered. All chosen with care.

our ground

Indonesia is not just our address. It is our material source, our craft network, our daily reference. We work directly with the makers and the land. Materials that define MOKU's work come from here. So does the knowledge of how to work them. That combination of place, material, and craft tradition is what makes our work possible. The archipelago's rich nature and heritage shape everything we make.
