Domisilyô is a living gallery dedicated to honoring artisans, preserving the unseen heritage and giving it a voice in the modern world. More than a retail space, it’s the official showroom of Artifeks, Kanya and Maison Metisse, where they present a collection of handwoven textiles, artisanal furnishings, homeware and clothing. Each piece a testament to authenticity, innovation and sustainability.

Pieces that celebrates the beauty of heritage, mastery of craft and thoughtful design.

The brands at Domisilyô include Artifeks — a fusion of heritage and innovation that transforms raw materials into artisanal furnishings. Kanya is where nature and design intertwine, reimagining sustainable luxury by transforming sugarcane by product into refined textiles, home décor and accessories. And lastly, Maison Métisse is a poetic dialogue between past and present that honors ancestral techniques through contemporary craftsmanship, creating timeless clothing that weaves heritage into modern luxury.

Last 4 March, the space located opened its doors from 4:30 to 9 p.m. at 6081-A Palma Street, Poblacion, Makati City. It was an intimate gathering of individuals who appreciate the beauty of heritage, the mastery of craft and thoughtful design. It was an afternoon of conversation, craftsmanship and quiet luxury.

A monthly open house will invite guests to experience Domisilyô’s world of craftsmanship. For March 2025, visits are by appointment only — send an email to domisilyo@gmail.com or a message via Instagram @Domisilyo to book an appointment.
