Welcome to Our Place
A Note from Shiza
As immigrants, my partner and I found Our Place in America by cooking and sharing food with new friends who became our chosen family. That’s why we started Our Place: to build a bigger table, one that would have room for all of us.
It is my greatest privilege to work on building connections every day alongside our inspiring team and our beautiful community.

Get to know Our Place
Come over to our place is one of the most generous everyday gestures out there, and we love it. It’s an open invitation, a welcoming, an extension of community. And that’s what we strive for: a table that’s big enough for us all to sit and gather around.
Sure, we make things for your kitchen, but we’re not a kitchenware brand. Everything we do is rooted in bringing people together. It just so happens one of the best and most authentic ways to do that is over a home-cooked meal.
So did we — that’s why we decided to do things differently and design for the home cook. Instead of tools that make cooking more complicated and intimidating, we make products that actually make it easier (and more exciting!) to cook.
Thank you for noticing! We think beautiful products help inspire you to cook on your own terms. Our logic: If it’s pretty enough to leave on your stovetop, you’ll want to cook more often!
Impact isn’t one thing, it’s everything. From what our products are made of and packaged in to the women-owned manufacturing collectives we work with to the systems-based causes we donate to, the aim is to make our impact on the world kinder. For us, mission is in everything, including the stories we tell, the communities we uplift, the foods we talk about, and more. To learn more about our product and manufacturing practices, check out ourFAQs.
Of course! Head over to our blog,Your Place, for the most delicious recipes from our community. From setting your Eid table to top-secret family brisket recipes, we spotlight home cooks of every heritage to help inspire your next dinner party.
Traditionware™ collections are designed to celebrate, honor, and tell the stories of specific traditions. They are odes to the celebrations we hold close and share around a table. In a world where the traditions of BIPOC and underrepresented communities have been overlooked, co-opted, and erased, these collections serve to uplift all the ways we celebrate and gather.
We believe tradition can be anything and held by anyone. We make (and break) traditions all the time! You get to choose your traditions and how they look and feel — they’re yours. And we hope that by telling the stories of how we celebrate (spiritually, seasonally, culturally, and otherwise), you can find some new traditions along the way.
