Genteel Home ushers in a new era of Filipino furnishings
GENTEEL Home, one of the country’s leading manufacturers of bespoke furniture, has been on a mission to help uplift the Philippines’ home furnishing industry and put the spotlight on the exceptional talent and ingenuity of Filipino craftsmen.
To pave the way, the manufacturing brand partnered with Heart Evangelista, the country’s top international fashion and style icon.
Genteel Home’s founder and principal designer, Katrina Blanca de Leon, welcomed Heart Evangelista as the brand’s newest ambassador.
The designer saw Heart Evangelista
as a symbol of the brand’s growth and evolution, embodying everything Genteel Home stood for: passion, pride in Filipino roots and a belief in making a mark on the world.
Genteel Home’s journey began in 2013, when de Leon received a special commission that ignited her passion for furniture design. Since then, the brand has been dedicated to crafting pieces that inspired beauty and creativity in every home.
Looking ahead, Genteel Home was set on expanding its reach to international markets, showcasing the Philippines’ rich talent in home furnishings.
Apart from dedication to aesthetics, the brand was committed to sustainability and community engagement.
By investing in a Mahogany farm, Genteel Home not only ensured a steady supply of materials, but also contributed to environmental preservation and providing livelihood opportunities for local communities.
For Genteel Home, every piece of furniture was crafted with love and purpose. Its collaboration with Heart Evangelista represented a shared commitment to excellence, sustainability and Filipino craftsmanship, setting the stage for an exciting future ahead.
