A home for tropical creativity
in the misty mountains of Bukidnon, curated as a testament to the diversity of cultures in the Philippine archipelago. Here, we celebrate cultural bearers and creatives in any medium. We wish to incubate and showcase those who forge legacies.
Weaving together tri-people aesthetics to create the rich tapestry of Mindanao, harking to the best of South East Asian design.
Rooted in community
Giving reverence to the foundation of the archipelago’s treasures: the protectors of heritage.
We listen to ancient songs carrying legacies overshadowed in contemporary society.
We breathe air free from the fog of over-urbanization.
We walk the paths known only to those who call the land sacred.
We’re looking for dream builders!
A home this ambitious needs a community to help build it. We’re opening the opportunity for you to participate in this pioneering project.
