KWESIYA HOME
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe our homes should be reflections of the journeyswe take. Our personal spaces deserve designs with a soul, a story, and apurpose. That is why we travel the world to develop our exclusive collections of home goods. Country by country, we partner with local artisans, blending our modern style with their time-tested techniques. By personally traveling to each country and using only local materials, we establish sustainable relationships. That is how we’re able to offer handmade goods, crafted with the highest quality materials.
WHY THE NAME “KWESIYA HOME”?
We strive to build a company that celebrates cultures. Kwesiya [kwé-si-ya] means mix it in a Cameroonian dialect. And with Kwesiya home, we wanted to invite you to discover some of the places we’ve had the pleasure of visiting. It is yet again another way of sharing the stories of the places we’ve been and people we met with you.
GLOBAL STYLE

This partnership allows us to achieve a combination of smart design, premium quality, and true
international style.
SMALL BATCH
You will find everything here – just a handful of our creations.
Each item is handcrafted, and available in limited quantities to ensure it is as extraordinary as the culture that inspired it.
MINDFUL PRODUCTION
As part of our sustainable commitment, we are striving to make positive impacts throughout our supply chain by innovative and more sustainable materials and manufacturing. Every piece we produce will make a positive social or environmental impact – either through the materials we have used or the way it is made.
OUR APPROACH TO WASTE
We are constantly re-evaluating waste throughout our supply chain. Excess fabric created during product development is donated to local businesses in in Toronto, who use them to craft Jewelry or make collages. If you are a maker and would like to use some of our scrap fabrics in your art, do not hesitate to connect with us here.
