FINDING THE PERFECT ELEMENT

- BY THE STAFF

Achieving that desired look and ambience to suit one’s needs, whims, and moods is not easy. At times, it can also come at a steep price. Thus, when looking at designing small, and rather limited spaces, a homeowner must be able to identify the specific pieces of furniture or decor that can suit his or her style and needs. In this manner, one avoids having to purchase unnecessar­y items that are not just a waste of space, but also of one’s hard earned savings.

But choosing from a wide array of brands and products can be confusing. So instead of going for “condo-sized” versions of traditiona­l pieces, focus on finding furnishing­s with statement details and multi-use features that will maximize their utility in a smaller space.

Moreover, it also pays to have a list of what you consider as your musthaves. So for this week’s issue, we have chosen three items from Sta. Lucia East Grand Mall’s Home Elements, which can be the perfect fit for your nook.

Home Elements opened on December 24, 2011, with the goal of providing the essentials of Metro Eastern home owners including modern and edgy furniture and fixtures. Most of the products on offer are locally made, but Home Elements also have products sourced from Malaysia, China, and other Southeast Asian countries.
