9 Local Home Brands You Should Support

Filipino craftsmanship isn’t just seen on dresses and accessories, many also channel their creativity onto furniture and decor. If international fairs like Salone del Mobile in Milan is any indication, many of these local home brands are worth taking note of.

While some home designers and brands haven’t reached the international stage yet, it doesn’t mean that you should support them less. You might just find the right pieces that will fit your space’s overall aesthetic. All you need is to know where to find them.

Bold prints from floral to animal make up most of KASSA’s European-inspired wares. Spot leopard-print chairs and zebra rugs to give your abode a unique look. Glassware is also made interesting with dainty floral designs, giving more life to your table setting. Located at Nest Furniture, #40 Jupiter Street, Bel-Air, Makati City.

Branding themselves as “not your ordinary carpenters,” raw.tura prides themselves with pieces made from local lumber and imported cowhide leather. According to the brand’s About Us page, they are advocates of using “raw and natural elements to soften interiors and enhance the uniqueness of any space.” Available online.

Grit and Bevel specializes in creating minimalist wooden pieces to keep your knickknacks in. What’s great about their creations is that many are multipurpose.

Cebu-based furniture designer Vito Selma is known for making unique symmetrical pieces that can be customized depending on your needs. The light coming from his lamps, for example, can be adjusted by simply sliding the wooden components. It’s the same with his coffee tables which have wave-like patterns that can be nudged to change their shape. For inquiries and orders, email [email protected]

The Olive Tree
