Welcome Home

Editorial Design
Food is a huge part of Filipino culture. It’s the main guest in almost every kind of gathering or event, and so it’s a huge part in bringing together communities. A lot of ingredients in Filipino cuisine are hard to find in major grocery stores so the presence of Filipino stores is important for those who are away from home as it also forms communities and relationships. More importantly, these spaces recreate the experience from home, where Filipinos socialize and gossip with each other in ‘sari-sari’ stores. Rather than the products, it is the experience that makes these stores what they are.
