[Title] => Explore the new Asia
[Summary] =>
Close your eyes and you can almost see it emerge from the deep, sparkling sea — a cluster of islands brilliantly green bathed in a gold light, the shimmer of money. This is The New Asia. It takes off from the Old Asia we used to know but today it is infinitely more progressive, full of exceptional intelligence, skill and talent. It is the emerging seat of the next big global success stories.

A visit to Old Asia’s showrooms at Shangri-La Plaza and Power Plant Mall is a veritable lesson in furniture history, with the fashionable Pachot Mapa and her children discussing details that go with each piece.

[Title] => Something new at Old Asia
[Summary] => 
Make that some things new at Old Asia. For those who think that antiques (or at least very old original pieces) have no place in a modern home, think again. The last few years have seen an urban style that combines old and new, rustic and streamlined, country and modern. Anything goes and every new design trend is just better than the last (well, maybe not for the chair-and-half which didn’t take off – no surprise there).

[Title] => HOME SWEET CONDO FOR MIKE & MONETTE MAPA
[Summary] => 
Swank condominium units are mostly contemporary in design. Since they have limited areas, maximum attention and care is paid to the configuration so the desired room requirements are met. Their designers and planners avoid definitive architectural details so whoever buys or rents these units has the option to adapt a look or style when it is time to decorate.
