Spatio reopens as a hub for Filipino creativity, turning shopping into a full-on celebration of Filipino identity
Telling stories through scent, sound, and craft, Spatio returns to Opus Mall as a retail destination and a living space that celebrates Filipino creativity in all its forms.
With its refreshed interiors and renewed vision, the 7,800-square-meter concept store now offers more than just curated goods. It invites guests to experience Filipino identity through handmade products, sensory design, and immersive storytelling rooted in culture and community.

“Our goal was to create an experience that isn’t just about shopping. It’s about connection. Each product, each sound, each scent here tells a story that’s deeply rooted in who we are as Filipinos,” said filmmaker and artist Connie Macatuno, who spearheaded the store’s new creative campaign titled #KwentoNatinGalingPilipino.
The campaign marks Spatio’s first collaboration with the Fashion Accessory Makers of the Philippines (FAMph), an organization that supports the use of indigenous materials and promotes local craftsmanship.
The store features over 100 Filipino makers and brands, including Abel PH, Lokal, Agsam Fashion Fern, Leather Studio Manila, Lakat, and Mara Piñon, with each one weaving tradition into contemporary design.
Through Macatuno’s lens, Spatio transforms into a living archive of Filipino creativity. From tactile displays of woven and handcrafted goods to curated merchandise that bridges the past and present, every detail is meant to evoke emotion and meaning.

Visitors were also greeted by the nostalgic aroma of ube, specially developed to enhance the feeling of home. The experience is heightened by Sa Habi ng Alaala: A Tapestry of Filipino Sound, a three-hour mix curated by Jorge Juan B. Wieneke V that weaves together kundiman, folk, funk, and ancestral sounds.
More than just fashion and design, Spatio brings its story to life through food and drink. The store houses Bar Shu and We The People Coffee & Tea Co., both offering Filipino-inspired menus. Drinks like Wild Halo-Halo, Ube Colada, Kape Latik, and desserts such as Bibingka Cheesecake carry the same intention as the rest of the space—to reintroduce Filipino culture in ways that are familiar, yet fresh.
The space is not just for showcasing products—it’s for storytelling, community-building, and cultural pride. It’s a celebration of what Filipino design is and what it can be.
Spatio blends lifestyle, heritage, and innovation under one roof. Every handcrafted bag, scent, and song becomes a chapter in a collective narrative—one that’s proudly Filipino.
