From Osaka to Manila: Dexterton and miratap bring Japanese minimalism to the Philippines

Filipino homeowners and design professionals can now experience the essence of Japanese minimalist living as Dexterton unveils its newest showroom at Greenhills Mall featuring miratap, a renowned lifestyle brand from Japan.

The opening marks miratap’s official entry into the Philippine market, placing the country among its growing list of global locations, which include Japan, China, Indonesia, Italy, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, the United States, and Vietnam.

Spanning 300 square meters, the new showroom offers an immersive showcase of miratap’s signature design philosophy-where functionality, simplicity, and craftsmanship converge. Each display integrates kitchen systems, vanities, bathroom fixtures, partitions, and other interior elements in a layout that reflects Dexterton’s curatorial expertise and miratap’s timeless aesthetic of ‘intentional living.’ Formerly known as Sanwa Company, miratap rebranded in October 2024 to signal a forward-looking vision anchored in minimalist design and innovation. The name merges mirai (‘future’ in Japanese) and ‘tap,’ symbolizing the brand’s commitment to shaping the next generation of living spaces through adaptable and purposeful design.

According to Taro Yamane, President of miratap, the partnership with Dexterton aligns with the brand’s mission to ‘inspire global markets with design solutions rooted in the purity of Japanese minimalism.’

‘Dexterton shares our passion for creating environments that harmonize form and function,’ Yamane said. ‘Through this collaboration, we bring to a wider audience the philosophy of Japanese minimalism-evolving with the times while staying true to its origins.’

Audrey Go-Liu, CEO of Dexterton, emphasized that Filipino consumers are increasingly drawn to Japanese design principles that prioritize simplicity, precision, and efficiency.

‘We’ve seen a growing demand for sleek, functional, and minimalist living solutions,’ Go-Liu said. ‘Our partnership with miratap allows us to deliver world-class Japanese design to Filipino homes, continuing Dexterton’s tradition of curating exceptional global brands.’

Go-Liu added that this collaboration supports Dexterton’s broader strategy of expanding its design portfolio through exclusive partnerships with international design leaders, a strength also evident in its Bonifacio Global City and Quezon City showrooms.

The miratap flagship showroom is located at the 4th Floor of Greenhills Mall. For inquiries, customers may email [email protected] or visit www.dexterton.com.
