You can choose the length of the showroom tour. Most buyers schedule two hours to see the full collection.

    BEAUTIFUL LOCATION THAT TELLS A STORY

    Our showroom is located in beautiful Jonsered’s factories which tells a story through the nature and the history of the location. Jonsered’s factory is one of Sweden’s most well kept industrial locations. William Gibson, a Scottish immigrant founded the factories in the 1830s as a textile industry. The production later expanded with woodworking machines, chainsaws and forest cranes. All business were run with hydropower and new channels was built. 

    A walk from Jonsered’s factories lays the inspiring Jonsered gardens, a recreated 19th century manor house garden. Around Jonsered are several nature reserves and Natura 2000 sites filled with rare species.

  • choose consciously

    choose consciously

    We believe that everyone have a responsibility to make the world a better place through the choices we make. To choose consciously is about choosing a product that you feel can represent you and your values. We have to be conscious about our choices because they can impact both people and the environment. We at filipiniana value social sustainability, environmental sustainability and supporting small businesses. These values is what we lean on in everything that we do.

    SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY

    Our vision when founding filipiniana was to build a cultural exchange between Sweden and the Philippines and create job opportunities in the rural parts of the Philippines. We started by selling handmade interior products with inspiration from the filipino culture. In that way we could help underprivileged people to a better life through work rather than aiding them with money.

    25 years has past and we still work with the same local factories to this day. Together we have grown and widen our product collections but still remain loyal to our startup vision.

    We respect and value our cultural heritage. We all have responsibility to choose a social sustainable product.

    Environmental sustainability

    As we grew as a company we started to act more for the environment. As a business we believe we have a big responsibility to limit our emissions and do what we can to prevent further emissions. We therefore always strive to choose the more environmental friendly option when possible. The majority of our packaging boxes are cut and reused from old shipping boxes. Additional, we try to limit our plastic packaging stuffing and choose paper instead.

    We value and respect the nature. The rice terrace fields is a common sight in the filipino landscape.

    Supporting small businesses

    We work mostly with small companies that have created a business with simply just a vision to start with. Growing together with a costumer or a supplier is inspirational and fruitful. Small businesses fuels innovation and work opportunities that contribute to growth. Choosing a small business over a big can………

  • aLLOW Us TO DESIGN YOUR UNIQUE PRODUCTS

    Here at Filipiniana we often meet creative people with a vision of a concept, a product or a space. We have worked with some of the most bespoke and leading companies in Scandinavia, helping them bring their ideas to life. Our costumers varies and consists of leading restaurants, hotels, cafés, museums, stores and amusement parks.

    The process of working together with a client and create a concept with their own exclusive products are a challenging but very inspiring journey. As a result of over 20 years of working closely with local factories in the Philippines we have developed product developing skills that can be used when a costumer wants their own licensed products.

    The process

    When a potential costumer comes to us with a project they want our help with, we start by setting up a time frame, price plan and a concept/mood board. This process help us visualize the client’s needs, preferences and the overall feeling they want to create. We thereafter present materials, finishes, colors and product suggestions to out client.

    After the first stage we start the journey of creating customized design pieces for our client. Some clients need help with creating a full concept layout for their space and others only want one specific center piece. Regardless, we closely develop and design the products together with our team and local factories in the Philippines.

    Most of our clients are returning costumers that we have worked together with for many years. We are proud of the creative relationship we have with our clients and are always looking for new inspiring projects to help develop.

    Please contact us if you need help with designing a product or a space.

  • Artificial corals

    Artificial corals

    When designing our products we take inspiration from the nature. However we believe it is important to not hurt our planet along the way of making nature inspired products. Therefore all our corals are artificial but very realistic looking.

    A coral decoration fits all homes due to its simplicity. However we believe you should choose the place for your coral wisely. When decorating using corals it is important that the coral gets its deserved focus. Due to the many details on the coral, the piece needs a well thought location. Placing a coral on the window sill and letting the sun shine on the coral can emphasize the uneven surface of the coral beautifully.

    Another tip is to use contrasts to emphasize the coral by mixing different colors and materials. A white coral infront of a dark wall can create beautiful contrast. The classical white coral with glass base creates contrasts as well. The ruff and uneven surface of the coral, placed on a perfectly cut square glass base creates contrasts that helps highlighting the coral.
