Design Inspiration

“Bahay Kubo, kahit munti, ang halaman doon ay sari-sari.”

More than a modest dwelling of bamboo and nipa, the Bahay Kubo stands as an enduring symbol of Filipino unity, family, and simple living. Inspired by the beloved folk song, this piece pays homage to rural life—where abundance is found not in grandeur, but in community, tradition, and the quiet richness of humble beginnings.

Material & Craftsmanship

Our placemats and coasters are structured in 4 layers – a lacquer finish on top, the original art print, a 5mm board and a cork backing at the bottom. They are heat resistant for up to 100 degrees celsius, as well as stain and scuff resistant. They can be easily cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth. Each placemat is 290x400x5mm big. Coasters are 4×4 inches with a 5mm height.

Packaging

Placemat and coaster sets will be packed in a gift box complete with material description and cleaning instructions, as well as a note on the design inspiration.
