Calling all design enthusiasts! The Philippine Institute of Interior Designers (PIID) is thrilled to present the Manila Interior Design Summit 2024, happening July 18-20 in Bonifacio Global City. This three-day event promises to be a vibrant gathering of design professionals, brimming with inspiration and opportunities for collaboration.
The theme, “A Festival of Collaboration,” underscores the growing importance of teamwork in the design industry. Gone are the days of the solitary designer. Today’s success hinges on the ability to weave together diverse perspectives, skills, and experiences from architects, interior designers, engineers, artists, and technologists. This collaborative approach unlocks a wealth of knowledge and fosters innovation, leading to the creation of impactful and comprehensive projects.
This year’s lineup of speakers features a mix of international design leaders and Filipino design talents. The roster alone highlights the Summit’s aim to bridge the gap between global trends and fostering a strong local design community. Attendees can expect a high caliber of design expertise at the Summit through a series of talks, workshops, and discussions covering a wide range of design-related topics, appealing to a broad audience within the design industry.
This year’s summit features a world-class lineup of speakers of industry leaders, including Lyndon Neri of Neri&Hu Design and Research Office, Jonathan Matti, known for his sophisticated design style and passion for Filipino culture, and Benjamin Stevenson of Foster + Partners.
Explore how collaboration is transforming the design landscape through insightful talks, workshops, and panel discussions. Expand your network by connecting with fellow designers, industry leaders, and potential collaborators at networking luncheons, dinners, and throughout the event.
