This only means that the same discerning taste will not only be available for you to wear.  Your rooms will also have a chance to be dressed in a whopping serving of style.  In her masterclass, LA-based interior designer, <a href="https://www.kellywearstler.com/" target="_blank">Kelly Wearstler</a> counseled on the choice of colors: if you feel and look good wearing a particular color, those colors will also be flattering for you if you decorate your room with them.  </p><div><br/></div><p>In the same vein, those who are fans of fashion designer <a href="https://rajolaurel.com/" target="_blank">Rajo Laurel</a> can now cover their tables in linens designed by the fashion designer.  It only gets better because he is collaborating with none other than furniture designer and visual storyteller, <a href="https://itokish.com/" target="_blank">Ito Kish</a>.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/1df2a4be-dca2-4b01-9703-c0a6d8167393_ito kish 0291.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">(L) Fashion designer, Rajo Laurel and (R) furniture designer, Ito Kish.<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> Courtesy of Ito Kish  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/living/tips/lauren-santo-domingo-new-art-director-tiffany-home/35018" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tiffany &amp; Co.

Available in five colors, two table mats— one riddled with constellations that reimagined Kish’s Rosario candelabra and the other, a kaleidoscope-like print of the ITO KISH Josefina lounge chair, playfully add visual interest when laid out for dinner set-ups. KISH’s candelabra is also used as fine embroidery in a set of House of Laurel table linens that include table runners, placemats, napkins, and coasters. This comes in two colors blue and gold. </p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/5acd7488-23fe-4cc6-ab5d-cbb6cd10ce64_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 7.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Rosario Candelabra Table Linens <span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> Courtesy of Ito Kish  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p>“Rajo and I really loved collaborating on these pieces as we both love to entertain guests,” Kish shares.</p><div><br/></div><p>Here is what the range has to offer:</p><div><br/></div><div class="article-content" itemProp="articleBody"><div class="media-content"><div class="slider-for"><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/7b9d4d9d-fa48-4e16-8377-150ae4be4db1_rajo laurel ito kish table collab_gallery.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/4b48fe57-ef7d-44a1-8696-971d9a7f2d66_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/86294990-bbb5-4fd4-a8c3-bb51124655d8_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/50062c32-b798-4f8b-bb4c-31f83e96ba91_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/55c306c2-f66d-48cf-bc06-b3574d83f48e_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/59a1e0e9-11d1-4758-bab5-b402d4c845d9_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/c41606d0-0059-4c31-8092-46985b873071_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/19f15055-c91e-4dc6-897d-19eccdc6cfcf_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/99f32756-c1fe-4958-a3d3-2e132e9f9e02_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/150c15dc-77ae-4099-83f4-6c4fb58f92d9_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/c520ccb3-bbc7-40d7-8490-c21c0d579250_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 10.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/3c0152f7-f7a6-4efc-a88c-0653f7e27eda_ito kish rajo laurel table collab 11.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div></div><div class="media-content slider-desc"><div class="item-desc"><div></div></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Josefina Paper Placemats, An Ito Kish and Rajo Laurel Collaboration - Seats on your table?

These colorful textiles journal dreams, stories, and aspirations of the craft community through intertwined threads.

Other collectibles feature prints of the South’s intricately carved treasure chests or <em>baul</em>. Casa Juan’s CEO Michelle Asence-Fontelera explains that, “More than just an interpretation of these textiles or crafts on our plates, this collection is an ode to modern Mindanano and the communities who have kept the vibrant weaving tradition alive.” </p><div><br/></div><p>“Inspired by this spirit of storytelling through design–a value which Kaayo and Casa Juan share–the collection hopes to bring the story of Mindanao to your homes. We hope that these plates become vessels of heritage,” adds the Kaayo Team.</p><div><br/></div><p>In the gallery below, see how this range of plates captures the vivid colors, textures and crafting culture of Mindanao:</p><div><br/></div><div class="article-content" itemProp="articleBody"><div class="media-content"><div class="slider-for"><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/e537689e-97e7-411c-8209-1b063dcb5a5b_casa juan x kaayo tableware_gallery.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/10e3b5b8-8428-4ad4-bcec-3475bcc16b5c_kaayo design a.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/0f8165bf-dc1f-4f1b-bb4f-681592a1a089_kaayo design b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/de6e7fb8-afce-4bb7-ad9f-e01c04e49df1_kaayo plates 2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/afec0d81-e591-4d3a-86fd-50c3d85ecf1b_kaayo plates 1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/89871122-f268-45c1-8151-56492799f196_kaayo plates 3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/395b442d-27bc-40e1-badb-692ab8a2fd5b_kaayo plates 4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/ec25e2e1-7bcc-4db1-914d-d0aade51c3a0_kaayo plates 6.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/2259719a-f13b-49c9-ba10-18bb646621eb_kaayo plates 7.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div><div><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/5f81abf3-82ba-4cee-b3fa-f04b87f49342_kaayo plates 8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii"/></div></div><div class="media-content slider-desc"><div class="item-desc"><div></div></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div><div class="item-desc"><p>Kaayo And Casa Juan Plate Collaboration<cite>Courtesy of Casa Juan</cite></p></div></div></div></div><div><br/></div><div><em>Visit <a href="https://casajuan.ph/" target="_blank">https://casajuan.ph/</a> and <a href="https://itokish.com/" target="_blank">https://itokish.com/</a> for more information.</em></div>
