PIID highlights Filipino talent at Interior + Design Manila 2025

THE Philippine Institute of Interior Designers (PIID) transformed the local design landscape once again at Interior + Design Manila 2025. Now in its third year, the annual event continued to position the Philippines as a global leader in the design industry.

A collaboration between Global-Link, the Chamber of Furniture Industries in the Philippines and PIID, Interior + Design Manila 2025 aimed to elevate the trade fair experience and showcase the next generation of interior design in the Philippines. With a focus on innovation and creativity, the fair served as a platform to highlight exceptional design and offer a glimpse into the future of interior design.

As a key partner in this groundbreaking event, PIID bridged generations of designers, artisans and brands to foster a thriving and innovative industry. The organization provided a vital space for these industries to converge, exchange ideas and push creative boundaries.

"Interior + Design Manila 2025 is more than just a trade fair; it is a testament to the Philippines' dynamic and evolving design landscape. This event serves as a catalyst for creative collaboration, pushing the boundaries of what Filipino design can achieve on the global stage," says PIID President Paolo Castro.

Under the theme "Neue Wave," this year's Interior + Design Manila, which took place at SMX Convention Center from March 6 to 8, 2025, explored how designers today can embrace new technologies and aesthetics without forgetting the rich heritage that defines Filipino culture.
