Description
Each tile is inspired by the traditional woven designs from tribes in the three main island groups in the country, thereby showcasing the weaving culture of the Philippines. Intricately designed to stand individually or together, the tiles feature a variety of playful patterns – symbolising Philippine culture woven together to create a tapestry deeply rooted in its history. The collection aims to create cultural awareness through an unexpected take on weaving by means of an unusual medium.
