Hana Tsukamoto and Irene Chang

HOTEL owners, Maana Homes

KYOTO, JAPAN

Maana Homes was founded by two creatives and childhood friends, Irene and Hana, with a fondness for hospitality and curiosity for the world. Conceived one starry night over some wine and scribbles on a restaurant napkin, we decided to bring our imagination into reality. After spending years designing hotels, Irene felt the need to create a type of hospitality product with a deeper purpose. Leading the brand’s creative direction, Hana emphasizes the importance of design to follow purpose. Not defined by any style or trend, our approach is driven by our playful curiosity and sense of wonder, setting the scene for some unique and profound experiences.
