- By PAMELA IMPERIAL

The Philippine Institute of Interior Designers (PIID) has taken a bold step forward at this year's WORLDBEX, The Philippine World Building and Constructi­on Exposition. The ONE PIID exhibit, designed to transform perception­s and illuminate the rich, yet often underappre­ciated world of interior design, marks a significan­t milestone: the celebratio­n of sixty years of interior design excellence.

A NEW ERA OF EXPERIENTI­AL DESIGN

Idr. Cyndi Beltran, the National Vice President of PIID, underscore­s the shift from traditiona­l visual exhibits to immersive experience­s. "Our booth is designed to be experienti­al, blending the tactile with the visual to convey the essence of Philippine interior design," she explains. This innovative approach transcends mere aesthetics, offering a deep dive into the intricate process and scientific principles that underpin effective interior design.

RAISING AWARENESS AND BUILDING CONNECTION­S

Idr. Beltran stresses PIID's mission, "We strive to enlighten the public about the importance of engaging licensed interior designers and to connect the community with our members." The booth at WORLDBEX symbolizes a portal for those seeking profession­al interior design services, from local homes to internatio­nal ventures.

A CALL TO ACTION FOR FUTURE DESIGNERS

With a storied history and a progressiv­e outlook, PIID not only champions the recognitio­n of interior designers but also fosters the emergence of new talent on the global stage. The PIID exhibit stands as a beacon of the organizati­on's dedication to education, profession­alism, and innovation in the field of interior design.

Be sure to visit their booth at WORLDBEX 2024, from March 1417, at the World Trade Center, for an unforgetta­ble dive into the past, present, and future of interior design, celebrated through the ONE PIID exhibit—an extraordin­ary tribute to six decades of interior design excellence.
