SM Home turnover fair at SMX Aura Premier

Home Improvement enthusiasts, designers and architects recently gathered for the first SM Home Turnover Fair at the SMX Convention Center in Aura Premier.

The SM Home Design Team led by Tom Castañeda created lifestyle spaces to inspire new homeowners to design their own homes. “The official turnover of the keys to your new home is an exciting moment for any homeowner,” says SM Home AVP Tom Castañeda. “It’s the one time that you have your home in your care and pristine state — with the sky being the limit on how to decorate your spaces. This is the best time to get professional advice on how to turn that bare space into the home of your dreams.”

The SM Home Turnover Fair was a culmination of SM Home’s efforts to expand its role — going beyond being a store to offer inspirational living spaces that are functional, livable, and beautiful.

During the event, top architects Angelo Siochi, Marco Misa Torres and top interior designer Tito Villanueva highlighted space planning for compact space; while Leo Almeria, Lawrence Carlos, Carmen Lim-Regala, and Greggy Realeza Saliba gave great decorating tips.

Young interior designers Iriss Mangio, Grace Moslares, Patricia Herbolario, Hannah Acab-Faustino and Erika Uichanco shared the latest design trends and creative organizing ideas to condo living.

Shoppers enjoyed great discounts from the participating brands and had a free one-on-one design consultation with top interior designers in the country. They also participated in exciting DIY and home improvement workshops by Craft MNL.

The SM Home Turnover Fair was sponsored by Salem and Slumberland; with participating brands Akemi, Canadian, Family Home, Hario, Klean Kanteen, Tefal, Misso, Boysen, Mober, Lalamove and SM Advantage Card. For more info, visit smhome.com.ph.
