OUR STORY
A JOURNEY OF DESIGN AND PARTNERSHIP
Welcome to DHOME, where every item tells a story of passion, design, and a commitment to quality. Our founder, Eirini Kalafatides, began our journey in 2006 with a vision to transform the overlooked into the essential. It was the humble doormat that sparked a revolution in home accents, blending sustainability with style in a category that was yearning for attention.
A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER
"We believe in outstanding design, quality, and service." - Eirini Kalafatides
Our inception was rooted in innovation. We saw the potential in what others ignored and turned it into our canvas. By collaborating with artists, museums, and skilled artisans, we redefined what a doormat could be - a statement of fashion, a welcome into one's sanctuary.
As we conversed with hundreds of small business owners over our 15 years in the wholesale space, a common thread emerged: the need for a wholesale destination that wasn't just about products, but about fostering success for local businesses. Thus, DHOME was conceived - a culmination of experience, insight, and the desire to fill a gap in the market.
THE EVOLUTION OF DHOME
With the acquisition of SKEEM in 2021, our portfolio expanded, solidifying our position as a leader in the home décor and gifts sector. Our collection now spans from the foundational doormats and rugs to the ambient home fragrance, matches, and personal care products that elevate everyday living.
WHY DHOME?
DHOME is more than a name; it's a symbol of shelter and unity for our family of brands - entryways, SKEEM, and The San Francisco Umbrella Company. It's the dome that houses our commitment to beauty, function, and style.
