Nothing makes me more proud of my heritage than to see the beautiful, hand-crafted furniture every year at the Manila Fame show. I have been attending the shows for 6 years now, and the Manila Fame Event never fails to give me a surge of excitement each time the doors open to the exhibit halls. They have always made the designs beautiful, theatrical and bigger than life. Never settling for average or good enough designs.
If you're looking for beautifully designed furniture and accent pieces for the home, this is the place you'd want to be twice a year every year. Manila Fame holds trade shows every March and October and is the best venue to do some serious furniture buying. You'll see a lot of foreign buyers during the Manila Fame event too, this is because Philippine-made furniture are sought after in global markets. Doesn't that make you proud to be Filipino?
Missed the show a week ago? Let me share with you some photos during the October Manila Fame Design & Lifestyle Event. The Design Philippines scenography is under the creative direction of Budji Layug and gave life to three stories: Soulcrafts, Luxe and Gen C. Furniture and home accents on display featured the latest designs from a collection by designers Stanley Ruiz and Eric Paras with special participation of select brands of Design Philippines and Manila Wear.
