Our Gana dress, back home
GANA: the Siargaonon word for beauty— a word that we carried with us when we designed this piece. Seeing it now, worn by @lokallab co-founder @kararosass in @voguephilippines feels like it found its way back home.
Lokal Lab is a grassroots NGO creating community rooted change in Siargao, from regenerative farming to youth storytelling and and cultural preservation.
To see Gana on someone who so fiercely champions her land and people feels incredibly full-circle. This is why we do what we do, so that our pieces can live and breathe in the very places and with the very people who inspire them.
Salamat karajaw @voguephilippines for the gesture and deep gratitude to Lokal Lab for everything you do for the island.

Our humble home studio has been featured in the February 2025 edition of Mega Magazine, in the editorial titled “Strings Attached: Interpreting Sisterhood through the Art of Braids.” This piece beautifully captures the essence of how our fully handwoven creations connect to the deep intimacy of having your hair braided—an art form that speaks to the bonds of sisterhood.
We’ve got a lot in store for this year, and starting off with our very first magazine feature makes this moment even more special for us.

Still pinching ourselves— Lambod Studio’s first ever full magazine feature is out in the world 🌎
Thank you so much to the team at @megamagazine for seeing our vision and telling our story so thoughtfully. Forget-Me-Knots captures the heart of what we do: slow, intentional, handmade pieces rooted in craft and creation.
We’re so proud of our small but mighty team whose hands make every knot, stitch and story come to life. This one’s for all of us.

Lambod goes to Coachella 🌴
We LOVE how @anna.galman styled our blue Tutubi Tulle Bib! Giving us festival fomo from thousands of miles away.
More of this available at the studio, send a message to book a visit. ☀️
Lambod Studio started in Davao in 2019, reworking macramé into wearable pieces. What began as a craft practice has grown into a considered exploration of structure, scale, and restraint. Each piece is hand-knotted—every knot done individually, with the time, labor, and process evident in the final piece.

How would you shop local in these times?
At Lambod, we try to answer that through how we create. Using solar energy to power our studio, and making pieces slowly, by hand.
We’ll be at the Mahayag Fair in Abreeza this April 10–12.
Come by, say hi, and experience the pieces in person. Maybe even spot some of our “We run on the sun!” tags. ✨
Doors are open for day two in Cebu!
Come through to @budolbycurio by @curiocebu at @asmaraurbanresort . We’re here til Sunday but come through before we run out of all the good stuff 🌸
Designing our hero product, the best-selling Alegria Kimona didn’t come easy 😌
She goes through a lot (same 😭) before she makes it to you!
Laser cut orchids + hand-attached freshwater pearls. So meticulously mastered by our macramakers.
Worth it? Always.
These fly off the racks ALL THE TIME, so we’re giving Cebuanos a chance to nab a few this weekend for @curiocebu at @asmaraurbanresort !
