Sustainable designs

Winning works in the Metrobank Art and Design Excellence national competition in interior design, painting, and sculpture will be on exhibit from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on September 13 to 15 at the Le Pavillon, Metropolitan Park, Roxas Blvd. cor. EDSA, Pasay City.

A lecture series dubbed as MADE Art Exploration Series, will also be held at the venue from 1:30 to 5 p.m. on Sept. 13 and 15. It will feature Architect Felino Palafox, Ann Pamintuan, Architect Paulo Alcazaren and Leo Almeria. Admission is free.

Shown on this spread are the winning interior designs. This year the theme for this category was sustainable design. UP alumna April Rose A. Frigillana won the grand prize for her work Nature's Links, while Adrian P. Del Monte of Cebu got the special prize for his work Casita.

The grand prize winners will receive P200,000 each, while the special prize winners will receive P150,000. In addition to cash prizes, the winners will also receive a trophy designed by glass artist and former MADE winner Noell El Farol.

Now on its 24th year, MADE has served as a launching pad for many young and bright Filipino artists. It is presented by the Metrobank Foundation, in partnership with the Metrobank Card Corp., Federal land, United Architects of the Philippines, Philippine Institute of Interior Designers, and BluPrint magazine.

MADE advocates through the arts, a creative and sustainable environment for holistic human development, thus its tagline Your Environment Shapes You. Besides an annual competition, MADE's interventions in the arts also include a grants program that allows it to support various art educational and training activities as well as improvements in the facilities of key art institutions.
