Welcome to TAMU
At TAMU, we believe a home should feel personal, grounded, and full of pieces that bring you joy. Everything we create is handcrafted by skilled artisans across Indonesia, designed to add warmth, character, and soul to your space.
Our Story:
TAMU was created by Cauley Taylor and Agus Mulyawan after years of building homes and bespoke spaces together through their company, Empyrean. Along that journey, we fell in love with the artistry, tradition, and heart that goes into Indonesia’s handmade craftsmanship.
TAMU grew naturally from that love, a shared desire to celebrate local makers and bring their work to the world in an honest, thoughtful way.
Our name has its own meaning too. In Indonesian, tamu means “guest,” a reminder of the hospitality and warmth that inspires everything we do. It also represents us: TA for Taylor and MU for Mulyawan. Two partners building something with purpose.
Our Mission:
We’re here to honour Indonesian craft and the people who keep these traditions alive. Every item is made to order, never rushed, and never mass-produced. When you choose TAMU, you’re supporting real artisans, people who have been creating with their hands for generations and helping preserve the techniques that make each piece so special.
Quality and Sustainability:
Everything we offer is designed with intention and built with care. Our materials are chosen responsibly, our processes are slow and hands-on, and every detail is shaped by artisans who truly know their craft. No two pieces will ever be exactly the same, and that’s what makes them meaningful. Each one carries its own story of heritage, skill, and place.
