Sense, Sensibility, And Sustainability

It’s been thirty six years since Manila FAME first opened its doors to the public, and sixty nine editions have since passed. With history spanning decades, it’s nonetheless clear to see on the exhibition hall that the design standard of the Philippines has long moved into the future. Home & Decor takes the tour!

Walking through the halls of the World Trade Centre in Metro Manila is an experience quite unlike any other. Manila FAME bears all the hallmarks of a traditional furnishings and lifestyle expo, yet there is something remarkably different in the air, which is thrumming with life and exuberance; this is further reflected in the furniture pieces that line the exhibition booths across the spaces.

As the second-longest running trade event featuring homeware, furnishings, holiday decor, fashion, and gift items in the Asia-Pacific region, Manila FAME has more than carved a place for itself in the annals of exhibitions this side of the world. To date, it remains the only show in the Philippines recognised by the Union des Foires Internationales, a union of the world’s leading tradeshow organisers.
