MANILA, Philippines - When the current interest in creating stylish, functional, and serene spaces, home furniture and accessories have become fashion items. Hence, the popularity of architects and interior designers, who like celebrity fashion designers and chefs have achieved rock star status.
With this in mind, Our Home, the country’s leading furniture lifestyle store, recently launched the Our Home Prestige Card at the SM Megamall. A spin-off from the immensely popular SM Advantage Prestige Card, it is issued to select interior designers and architects to help them select items for their creative projects. With the card, they can earn points as they purchase, that will entitle them to 10X Bonus Points after they have purchased P200,000 worth of items at Our Home. These bonus points are redeemable anytime at any Our Home store and at all accredited points-earning partners of SM Prestige within the promo period, which is now until Feb. 28, 2010. They will also get free two-year extension of the SM Prestige Card.
Our Home’s Leather Collection was also launched during the event, and celebrity interior designer Tessa Prieto Valdes together with interior designer Joy Ejercito and design consultant Marilen Montenegro created their own special spaces with items from the leather collection. Marketing Convergence Inc. AVP for marketing Rey Maclang, senior manager for Prestige Card Sheryl Calma, Our Home division merchandising manager Cons Runa and Our Home marketing manager Joy Logico joined them during the event.
Tessa put together a living room as colorful and vibrant as her personality using the two- and three-seater Monzani sofas. Joy, the youngest in the Board of the Philippine Institute of Interior Designers, designed a modern space using Atlanta two- and three-seater sofas. Marilen worked around the six-piece Pendleton dining set to create a casually elegant setting.
The Prestige Card for Interior Designers and Architects is one of the many exciting perks at Our Home, the lifestyle store where one can get great designs at great prices. The Leather Collection is available at Our Home stores in Megamall, SM City Fairview, SM Southmall, the Block at SM City North-EDSA, V-Mall, SM City San Lazaro, and SM Mall of Asia. In the provincial areas, these are located at the SM Supermalls in Bacoor, Pampanga, Lucena, Baguio, Marilao, Clark, Sta. Rosa, Batangas, and Dasmariñas in Luzon; as well as Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, and the North Wing of SM City Cebu in the Vismin area.
