Evolution | #InteriorDesign Journey of The Past, Present, Future
Since my house plan is almost complete, I'm now on the lookout for a new and exciting designs for the interiors of my new home.
There are just so many things to think about like where to properly put the furniture piece or just simply getting ideas on the latest trends. It can actually get overwhelming and we sometime tend to overlook small but important details.
Fortunately I was invited to witness what the graduating students of the Philippine School of Interior Design (PSID) , advanced class of 2016. Perfect timing, really. They have some amazing ideas.
From simple planters to eye-catching moss wall, I especially love the idea of covert cabinets.
I no longer need to go far to learn these things.
My journey there was so worth it and I was amazed by the incredible showrooms, and the dazzling displays as these talented students presented a timeline of design trends, styles and designs from past, present, and future in celebration of PSID’s 49th year. As I explore the vast exhibit area, I took advantage of that event and made it as a sourcing platform to conveniently connect with some suppliers.
Some of them were Devant, Uratex, Boysen, Hafele, Bosch, Blanco Germany, Gorenje, Dexterton, La Europa Ceramica, Songdream, Nordlux, Matimco, AG Murals, Mity Mike, Larry’s Curtain, Mainline, Fineza, and Ilaw Atbp.
'EVOLUTION' is showcased 24 exquisitely-designed spaces and is a carefully planned, extensively researched exhibit that marks the countdown to PSID’s 50th anniversary in 2017.
For decades now, PSID has been known to produce groundbreaking exhibits that become the benchmark of interior design shows in the academe, and are considered go-to events for architects, fellow interior designers, design enthusiasts, and the general public to learn more about world-class Filipino design and see innovative interiors come to life. PSID brings interior design a notch higher each year, presenting exhibits that challenge the graduating batch to showcase their repertoire of design skills and the PSID mark of excellence.
The first part of the exhibit (Past Gallery) was all about vintage trends and classic designs. Showcasing how mid-century design styles have influenced today’s interior design standards, the Past gallery will take exhibit-goers through a trip down memory lane with looks inspired by the 1940s to the 1970s.
Booths will capture the essence of illustrious designers from this time period such as Finn Juhl, Eero Aarnio, Alvar Aalto, Eero Saarinen, Charles Eames, Hans Wegner, Warren Platner, and Arne Jacobsen.
Giving exhibit-goers a glimpse of what’s to come in design is the (Future gallery).
The student-designers have conducted thorough research to come up with fearless forecasts on what the future of design looks like based on the trends today. Promising possible trends to be covered include Avant Garde Industrial, Tech and Trendy, Metallic Glam, Rustic Luxe, Eclectic Elegance, Organic Opulence, Design Deconstructed, and Funk Art.
“Evolution” will take exhibit guests from September 30 to October 31, 2016 at the Square Building, Greenfield District, Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City.
