This month, Style and Substance takes center stage as we highlight how design can merge beauty and meaning. The MyHome October issue features a collaboration with Crate and Barrel, celebrating its 10th anniversary in the Philippines, and renowned fashion designer Vania Romoff. Together, they showcase how fashion and interior design can elevate human experiences.

This issue also features star designers Anthony Nazareno and Grace Reyes-Serapio, who take us inside a client’s art-filled home, and entertainment writer Mike Lim, who opens his doors to reveal a charming, thoughtfully curated apartment. Through these narratives, we explore how thoughtful design—rooted in heart, soul, and sustainability—can make a lasting impact.

Here’s what’s inside:

COVER STORY

The transformation of Vania Romoff’s atelier stands as a testament to Crate and Barrel’s commitment to timeless style and design innovation. It is also a reflection of Romoff’s design journey over the past decade, marked by both style and substance. Her reimagined atelier stands as a testament to her evolving vision and enduring creativity, enhanced by the thoughtful touch of Crate and Barrel’s timeless pieces.

SPACES

We explore Mike Lim’s modern yet storied condo, filled with classic elements, and tour a family home filled with iconic furniture, artworks, and books, all reflecting the owners’ discerning taste. MyHome also pays a visit to fashion stylist Michelle Lao’s evolving high-rise home, a reflection of her life’s changing stages.

TRENDS

Daniel Lampa dives into biophilic design and shows you how to bring nature into your home with curated pieces.

Join us in celebrating the art of balancing style and substance. From our collaboration with Crate and Barrel to the homes of design luminaries, every story reveals the power of merging aesthetics with purpose. Whether through fashion, interior design, or sustainable choices, the featured spaces remind us that true elegance lies in creating environments that reflect heart, soul, and personal expression. Here’s to designing with intention, where every detail tells a meaningful story.
