Rimadesio, known for its architectural partitions, sliding systems, and modular storage solutions, gathered Manila’s architects and designers around a shared approach to contemporary living defined by precision, material clarity, and integrated systems thinking.
Rather than treating furniture as standalone objects, Rimadesio approaches interiors as coordinated spatial environments where storage, partitions, and furnishings operate as part of a continuous architectural language. The event highlighted how technical innovation and restrained Italian design continue to influence contemporary residential and interior environments in the Philippines.
As Bespoke Furniture marks a decade as the exclusive Philippine distributor of the Italian brand, the gathering reflected an ongoing exchange between global design systems and local architectural practice.
TAYO Architecture & Design designed Balai Ba’i, a 900-square-meter duplex-style resort in Laguna that draws inspiration from the calm and craftsmanship associated with Bali. Responding to its local context, environment, and culture, the project reflects the firm’s tropical-modernist approach while celebrating the natural beauty of the Philippines.
